This is being installed at my work they've been working on it for the last 3 weeks almost complete. This is going to be one bad ass machine.

Company I work for makes products for medical,ac,industrial,consumer goods hell they make just about anything. Close tolerance +/- .005 to .010 on a lot of things. most common is +/- .020. Huge step forward for us as a company.

We have one at ours (punch and bender) and the whole project was mismanaged by the top players. Skimped on training (minimal), simulation software and preventative maintenance. The whole thing was a boon doggle. Suffice to say, we have a machine not running efficiently and "they" have the gall to say it's a piece of crap.

Be sure your group pays and gets the training! Be sure to do the PMs! The machine can do SO much when used properly.


Oh, and it's pretty sweet when it's running.

I hope my company understands the pm part of it. It's a precision machine and has to be maintained. You cant spend that much on a machine and not train personal properly on its use and function.
