I just looked at their website. Schneeberger and THK rails and screws, Fanuc and Siemens options for controls, drives and motors, 30krpm spindle options...
I looked up the spindle manufacturer, and while chinese, they appear at least competent at a glance.
I don't know any more than that, but they are very clearly trying to disassociate themselves with the hobby crowd.
I would never entertain the idea of one with one of the chinese controls, but a Fanuc or Siemens? Not a whole lot to go wrong there...
I did a bit of googling and found that someone was quoted north of 50k for the X7 machine with a Fanuc control. max allowable weight on the table is only 220lbs, which seams incredibly limiting.
Yes its without a doubt better than a tormach, but you can get into a Robodrill Eco at about the same price, with no doubts as to whether replacement parts can be had.
