Looking for cnc

[Eshev]

Hi everyone, I am looking for a cnc 1325 for cabinetmaking purposes, the machine I've found so far is XG1325 with 4 in line auto tool change, 3.5kw italian spindle, vacume table, japanese drive system.. The quote I got for it is 12800 usd, I don't know if it's the best one to purchase, so I need some advice,- thanks

What sort of cash do you have to play with?

I wouldnt touch any old CNC machine made in China, Jinan Quick CNC has a good reputation so far, some Chinese manufacturers will do a cheaper price but in the end you get what you pay for.

If you have more money to play with I personally would be looking at the Cobra X3 from Camaster, I've seen a couple of demo's of the machine and if I had the room or need for one I would definitely be buying one. Made in USA.

Then if you are swimming in money you can look at the MasterCam which starts at ~50K for the basic model. I've seen one in person and they sure are built solid but they are expensive.

quick cnc sounds farmiliar, when I started browsing through your links, I realised that the person from quick cnc that quoted me on the xg1325 also quoted me before on the k1325 model before, US8300 with no vacum table . I asked him if he had anything similar to the k1325 but with vacum table and atc, that wouldn't be too expensive, he offered me an XG model, with 4 atc and 6 atc with 2 years warranty both. The K1325atc are around 30000us, I am looking for something under 20000.
