Hi all,


Happy new year. We are going to purchase a 5 axis machine. I'd like to have your views on 5 axis machine combination, it's manufacturer & the controller you prefer with the suggested machines. I've seen different machines on internet with different combination like those of dmu p series with heidenhain & millplus controller, okuma, mazak, makino, parpas from omv & the list goes on. what are the advantages & disadvantages of different combinations like table/table, head/table or head/head & machines of different makers. We are going to machine relatively small to medium jobs like those of impellers and turbine blades.


Looking forward to your views,


John.
