Do you have any plans for a small-scale lathe as a compliment to the 1610L mill?

Might be interested in taking you up on that. How should I go about arranging this?

Chris.

Not at this time. We do have more machines in development which are targeted for release around Q3 2009 and throughout 2010. Depending on interest we may start development of a lathe, but release would not be until late 2010 or 2011.

Our machines are developed from the castings up, and are 100% new designs using exclusive castings, control and drive systems. We also have very strict internal testing and certification processes for our new machines, hence the long development times.

I understand the lead time for development of a new product, especially from the ground up. I'm telling you right now that if you develop a small lathe as a compliment to the 1610L, especially for around the same price point, you will sell as many as you can manufacture. Look at the message boards here on the zone...a small-scale CNC lathe is a very viable product and an unfilled niche. I would buy a lathe and a mill at the same time if you had them available. I would buy a mill from you if I knew that you were going to introduce a lathe. I want a series of machines from the same manufacturer for the ease of customer support, familiarity of control software, and reliance on a system comprised of quality components & implementation. You won't hear any inquiries if you show no interest...your potential customers will ASSUME you have no interest...and thus miss your target and niche. Companies are too often not willing to listen to customer input until too long down the road...when they are failing and the product that customers have been wanting all along would have helped stave off failure.

impressive feed on such a machine, do you have any vid of it working aluminum or steel

[MIKINI MECH]

Hi,

The second video we have posted here is surfacing a block of 6061-T6, which is a pretty hard temper of aluminum. Sorry, we should have noted that it was aluminum in the title (not just the alloy number).

Thanks for looking

[ataxy]

oups sorry my bad i did not check the title and due to the light in the machine i took for granted that the white wash of the light made it look like derlin my bad sorry for this

well this machine seem to be a trully great performer
