My only experience is with a tormach. With that said I need to upgrade. Many options out there and I hope you guys can lead me straight. I need a machine for 80K or less. much less is preferred. I dont want to buy a headache when it comes to controls, I want a strong solidly built machine. I dont have to have a huge work area, but would like at least 15" on X and Y. minimum 10k spindle. I want 4th axis capability. I thought I was sold on a Haas VF2SS, but other machines I have found with some interest are Hardinge GX1000,(I found low hours used 2012 with okuma control) Hurco, Doosan, Brother, and a few others. I have read that I dont want fanuc control, I dont want issues with memory, service, etc. Please give me your opinion on what I should be looking for.
