New to the CNC world but not machining, I am looking to get a Mill and a Lathe that can be used for light production purposes. The problem is that there are so many brands known and unknown to me I don't really know where to start. Can I get some opinions on an appropriate machines?
Lathe Requirements:
- CNC
- Motor Controlled Tooling and Tail stock for drilling purposes
- 0.001+/- accuracy on a 100 part run
- Equipped or can be equipped with a bar puller. So motor Controlled Chuck
- Around 30" between centers and 6+ swing over bed
- $10,000 to $15,000
Mill Requirements:
- CNC 3 or 4 Axis, maybe a 4th Axis add on
- 0.001+/- accuracy on a 100 part run
- Ability to tool change is preferred
- A work Cube of 12x12x12 or greater
- $10,000 to $15,000
Thanks for the help in advanace
