Hello
I am in the market for a relatively affordable 5 axis machine. So far the UMC 500 at around 147 k is coming in as the most affordable. What else is out there. The other option for us is the okuma Genos 560 with a trunion at around 180k. I know they are completely different machines. I like the haas because it's cheap and has a bigger envelope for 5 axis than an okuma. I like the okuma because I can sometimes remove the trunion and cut bigger parts, though the 5 axis on it is small. About us. We do a little bit of everything. Mostly pretty work rather than high tolerance work
