Common guys !
Do you honestly advocate a Haas or Mazak over a Hurco when it comes to prototype work done on the floor ?
This is a no brainer.
No way can you manually program a Haas as fast as a Hurco, and thats not even considering the math calculations that Hurcos do for you
I have yet to have a Haas tell me where a tangent point is, or a helix coordinate ?
He said he will do it from the floor
He does not have CAD/ CAM experience.
It would take a year to learn MasterCam and G code
He can run the Hurco in a day

As far as the mechanics of the machine and it's construction, You may have some points, but please spell them out instead of general comments.
Things like age and model number and Part issues.
I know shops that dump their Haas's after 5 years, because they do not do preventive maintenace..Or have 20,000 hours on them |
