I have a small shop with 2 cnc lathes and 2 cnc mills. Looking at another lathe, bigger than my two. They get expensive quick when you get larger than 15" chuck and 80" or longer. So that means Im looking at older ( cheaper ) machines. Really hate going older than 10yrs or so, but my price range is putting me around 2007 Puma 400LC range. I do have a 2004 Puma 300L and have had some control issues. Being small, a down machine is a major issue.
Sooooo, where is the line when it comes to price/age/reliability in yalls opinion?
Fanuc, probably Korean made machine. Cant afford Japanese....
