Hi everybody,
I have just place my order for a 4axis CNC converted SIEG SUPER X3 from "SyiL" and I want to share this experience and process with you.
First I want to introduce myself.
I’m from Quebec Canada, my spoken language is French so I wish that you will excuse me if my English is not perfect but I will try to do my best.
I have a formation as an engineering technician; I work for Doppelmayr-Ctec ski-lift in St-Jerome and as the company name implied, our business is to produce Ski-lift. I’m in charge of the method department here. We do all the process method, process planning, the entire cnc program for 3 mills, 2 lathes and a plasma cutter. But I don’t program and design anymore four a couple of year now :frown: , I supervise and do production planning mostly now.
Like most of you I dream of having my personal cnc, I bought a lot of pieces to build my own router table, in fact I have almost everything two build two of them… but I don’t really have the time to complete it… I also have a 10x20 lathe and a round column knee mill that I will like to cnc also but again I don’t know when I will have the time to learn how do it and to build it.
Than I saw the add from SyiL
http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20028 And I fall in love with this mill and I found the price very reasonnable. I exchange a couple of email with them ( hummm maybe more than a couple
) and I finally take the decision to make my dream come trough and I order “my” CNC converted SIEG SUPER X3 with the fourth axis option.
My first impression of this company is really good. The communication by email with them is excellent. The people at SyiL are very kind and always helpful, they reply to all my email in a really short time ( in fact I don’t know if they take the time to sleep )…
The building process of my “New Toy” should take about 2 weeks before the shipping and they are kind enough to offer to send me some picture so I could follow the building process. I would post this picture here so you could se it to.
This is what my "baby" will look like
