Our company is considering several new machines and one brand that EDM Network is selling is kind of an upscale Chmer, by a Chmer division called AMS Tech. Has anyone had any experience with this company? I'm trying to figure out if the control is a Fanuc compatible as the Chmer ones supposedly are. Also, another consideration is the Charmilles Cut 30 machine, apparently made in China. My main concerns are: 1: Overall quality 2: Tech support 3: part availability 4: Posting my programs using Esprit. DP Technology doesn't know what post it would use, but they may have to quote us on a custom one. I know what to expect from Charmilles, good and bad, but it's the fear of the unknown that gets me. Thanks in advance. |

We went ahead and bought the machine and just had it installed. So far, so good. They incorporate some features that I really like, such as a Z lock to prevent the head from being lowered too far (and crashing) and a great threading system. More later. |
