With my 1phase power supply and 150a service I believe I can comfortably run one of these machines. Looking for some feedback if you'd please. Biggest part would start from 6.5" OD, 4.5" long aluminum.
New Tormach 15L. $24k w/ turret. 20a 220v 1p requirement.
New AutoMate CNC FL300-II. $27K + $1k AD supplied 3p converter w/ turret. 30a 220v 1p is what they said was required.
2002 Haas SL10T. $18k + ~$3k converter. Based on AD's math I'd need a 30hp converter and (40a Haas spec x 1.6 / 0.80 ) 80a 1p line.
I Haas has a ton of support, but is old.
Tormach has a lot of support, but is kind of flimsy seeming.
AutoMate is a perfect split in price, function and power, but there is so little info and the website is pretty junk. Kade the sales guy was pretty helpful on the phone though.
Opinions on the 3? Another, better option, <30k?
