A call out to the professional designers & machinists out there.
I've been tasked with looking at desktop CNC machines. We currently have 2 3D printers (and are looking into a possible 3rd) We are also entertaining eh idea of a small "Desktop" CNC mill in place of a 3D printer. The idea is to get something other than 'plastic'. It'll be used for prototyping machined and moulded parts before committing to tooling.
We are a small-ish design team, and are well versed in CAD / CAM. Looking to get something to complement our R&D department, and take a bit of load off them.
This will pair with our excising 3D printers. See my other thread on '3D printers'.
Anyone have one? Recommendations? Expected budget is about $25k..
