just to update our last conversation,
we have been working our new MastercamX2 mill level 3 with solids and surfaces software for about three months now and i gotta tell ya im very happy,the software is amazing and the support is second to none.
however the void in our budget left from our software purchase didnt give us the ability to go with the Faro arm,it was a nice piece but at 50k-$80k there was no way we were going to be able to handle that cost.
after some searching the great folks at emicroscribe.com provided us with a great solution with 2 thousandths accuracy and plenty of workspace for our application.
we are looking forward to receiving our MX 5 in the next week or so we will provide feedback on its merits as we use it
thanks to all of you for your help,i am sure i will need more of it later. |
