We have decided to expand our digital fabrication department with the addition of a VF-3YT. We are currently running a CR Onsrud 5'x12' 3-axis machine. This type of machining is completely new to us. We cut a lot of wood, foam, and plastics...occasionally aluminum. Boss man pretty much said to get the machine here and figure it out.
Do you guys have any pointers as to how the shop should be set up to ergonomically facilitate both machines? We have plenty of room currently to bring in sheet goods with a fork lift. We have a Gorbel Vacuum Arm, 6x12 vertically mounted digitizer, and material storage racks. Things might get tight with this new machine. I want to be confident about machine placement. Any advise is appreciated!
