    Looking for the best bang for the buck CNC VCM and Turning center

    Looking for CNC VMC 50x26y25z and a CNC Turning center 17-34-30. We will be machining 6/4 TI, 4140, and 7075 T6 to make firearms parts. What brands do you recommend?

    I use the FADAL 4525 VMC With a FANUC 18i control and a HWACHEON HI-TEC 300 Lathe (slant bed) with the FANUC control. Great Machines. The VMC also has a refer chiller for the ball screws and spindel, encoders and glass scales, 10000 RPM's tool setter and probe (Renishaw). Great Machines for the money. The Lathe will run up to 3200 RPM's 12 tool turret and tool setter.. I turn and mill all differant metals with these machines, they are biult ridgid, and they are highly acurate. If your talking new machines, I would recommend these.

    Hope this is helpfull.
