Re: Buying a CNC turning center. Any recommendations?

Have you looked at Sherline - they have mills and lathes at fairly reasonable prices.

www.sherline.com

The products will handle most projects related to robots except if your making parts over 20 inches long or 6+ inches in diameter.

If you're interested, I can recommend a supplier.

Those machines will not have the Control Capibilitys that you are looking for. For the automatic capabilitys that you were looking for you want to look for somthing with a FANUC control
