Ah cool. Wasnt sure if you had seen the thread. Good learnings from that.

My machine today is basically nothing like before. It has the same hardware and uses some of the power / switch gear but other than that, is very different (for the better). To replace it with a newer version will be £10K+.

10+k for the whole machine or just the controls ??

Sorry, I meant the cost if I was going to replace the machine with something similar in the market today. You would be looking at a Chinese Syil or similar. 8 ATC, Flood Coolant, Servos for X Y Z and spindle AC Servo etc with MPG (not wired in yet). To replace the machine would not be cheap I think.

Plus, you can see how rarely these come up and how quickly they are bought. I will sell this once my new machine is built but if I have space I may chose to keep it longer term, very capable little machines.

ahh, indeed. Always liked the Tormach Machines myself, think emvio eng (uk) will be offering something next year as well with an atc.

you have a second traic now or is your new machine something different?

This is what I am building. Very slow progress but getting there.

Tormach, certainly an option although they are far east produced with an element of QC that makes them worth considering.

Any more details on the Emvio machine?

Glad to see you got it finished
