Thinking about buy a couple of machines

[lkenney]

Good morning everyone;

I am thinking about buying a couple of used machines to expand our shop. Does anyone have any idea what it would cost to have these machines trued to like new condition. I know we can't estimate parts that might be needed, I was just wondering if anyone had had this type of service done?


I am looking at 2000 and newer VF-2 and VF-4 Machines

What do you think is wrong with it? With those years they should be fine unless they've been abused.

Since I have not pick any certain machine, I do not have any idea if there could be something wrong, but I would like for once to know that the machines are in as good a condition for product as possible before we start them up. Things like a sine ball test etc, I am sure there are some dianoswtics that would give some idea of the condition of the servo motors, ball screws etc.
