First post here, looked around a bit for the answer and couldn't find it.
How does the machine come delivered? Is the machine fully assembled, come in separate packages needing assembly, etc? I am mainly asking because the company I am with is considering CNC upgrade options. We do prototype parts and a smaller machine would work just fine. However, the building we are in was not built for industrial application so space to get the machine in is limited. There is no giant garage door and we would have to be able to load pieces through an elevator into the lower level (which is then very open).
The current Tormach we have we can move by removing one of the motors and it will go through a standard doorway (not that we need that small of clearance on a new machine).
So does anyone have an idea of how the machine comes new, how difficult it is (if realistic) to disassemble and reassemble any parts of the machine to get it where we need it?
Appreciate any direction or information.
