    1. When programmed with Cutter comp. and an arc on -arc off move it will sometimes skip the contour and only perform the arc on-arc off move.
    2. On the Numatix you have to use the Feed overide to control both feed and rapid.
    3. Numatix does not display code.

    Geez doesnt sound like a good sound upgrade for anyone based on these faults it sounds more like a disaster waiting to happen. If these problems were addressed then maybe we would take another look but based on these three things why would I want this control other than if we were only ever doing long contour programs for hours. We already test our colision in Mastercam but...
    We have had good luck with our Fadals milling mostly soft steel and aluminum up to 5 axis. We are always looking for spare parts :) If you have a broken down Fadal give a shout.

    Question for Numatix users:

    Anyone ask if they have the upgrade tested from version 4.2 to version 6.11?

    NCPLUS 2000

    Afterall these updates were done by the creator (Numeryx) of their software...
