What machine cutting area suits you best.?

**magicniner** · 16-02-2020

#1 Machine type, Mill
#2 Cutting area X 300min, Y 200 min, Z 300min
#3 Ideal overall footprint no greater than an 8 foot cube (Like the mix of metric for small & imperial for big? I really do think that way :D )
#4 Floor standing
#5 Material most likely to be cut, Stainless, Titanium, Tool Steels and Aluminium with a side of Engineering Plastics and Composites ;-)

That would be the ideal size for me; does such a machine exist? and yes, I'm a model engineer so needs to be cheap!

Not sure which size your referring to but please look at the first post and answer the questions. This would help me greatly because you are the perfect person to answer because your brand new to CNC.

Oh and to answer your "Does it exist" question then it probably does but if not then we can make it exist, that's what we do best.!

#1 Machine type, Mill
#2 Cutting area X 300mm, Y 200mm, Z 200mm
#3 Ideal overall footprint size W,D,H Bridgeport footprint or less 1200x900mm
#4 Floor standing or benchtop. either floor standing more practical for flood
#5 Material most likely to be cut. - steel

starting on CNC but thinking Denford Triac for size comparison
