[yksur]

Hi guys, dose someone know how much this router cost?
I already sent an email to Ms.Diana but SH-CNC is closed for Chinese Christmas holidays.

Is this a good router?
Is it a good value only for hobby or also for the indutry?

Thanks in advance.

I have one of these arriving tomorrow, so will be able to give my comments soon (I am a hobbyist)

I initially contacted Diana and was then put in contact with Taney, who has been very helpful.

I was initially quoted approx US$4000 for a standard machine, although you might be able to get some discount if you do not need the 'free' software.

The currency exchange rates might have an effect on the prices today.

Thanks, will wait your review.

For the "Free software" you mean the Type3 and Ucancam software?

Artcam is enough?

Jim, what's the pros for aspire vs artcam?

Thanks

[cabnet636]

artcam cost 9-11.000 $ and has a monthly 100.00 update fee

aspire cost 2000.00 and upgrades are free in the first year ad a big upgrade is expected in the next month or two.

i have a employee who operated artca for nine years and after using aspire declred he is not upgrading any further and is on board with aspire


artcam is highly overrated in todays economy and i am convinced they will lower the price dramatically it is just a mater of time, thier forum is lame and stagnant where as vectrics is user friendly and has lots of new users posting daily

Tested Aspire.
I'm not a pro but try some easy vcarves and reliefs and it's unbelievaly easy to use
I like the toolpath section that's very very easy to understand.

Anyway now I bought the router for the Aspire I have to wait...
