If you are thinking of buying a second hand machine tool we would recommend that you have the machine surveyed first before you carry out the purchase. The vast majority of machine tools that are disposed of have problems that most people would not be aware of. We can find faults even with brand new machines, our comprehensive reports can be used to your advantage when negotiating the asking price with the vendor.
We have the knowledge to test all the machines functions and components we know how the machines should sound and look, in addition a geometrical test will give a reasonable indication of the machines condition, and we are aware of all the dodges that can be carried out to make a bad machine look good. For peace of mind we would not recommend buying a used CNC Machine without a full survey.
