Please I need some help.
I want to start the production of steel spaceframe spherical ball nodes with sizes ranging from 75mm to 400 diameter, which requires Facing, drilling, and tapping at angles around the sphere. I found out in a youtube video from around 1:40 minutes ( Space frame 1 - YouTube ) that showed a 5 axis vertical machining center is used for the job, so I want to buy one.
This is going to be my first CNC Machine so, I'm not a machinist, I'm only well experienced in general steel fabrication and that's it.
My budget is $50,000 so I'm thinking of a used machine, and it will be used in Nigeria. please what do you think? I really don't have any experience in this field, thank you.
