For starters, stand back from welded steel or light-duty construction—you need a machine with a single-piece, 45° slant bed Meehanite casting as its base.
The ways should be wide enough to support heavy cutting, and precision-ground and hardened for long-term accuracy.
You’ll also need a programmable tailstock, a fast, heavy-duty turret, an industry-leading CNC control, and since you’re getting to be making many chips, make certain to settle on a machine with a strong coolant system and a chip conveyor.
