[QUOTE="DMC, post: 130088, member: 430"] Roland is not a CNC machine! It is closer to a paper printer for $99 that I have sitting on my desk. No real CNC frame, no precision rail system, 5hit even my HP paper printer has linear encoder strip where as the Roland does not! LOL - To "grind" on ceramics with diamonds requires tool radius measurement. Either with Laser or by touch. Like the KaVo has. Not just simple "POKE" on a button Z-offset only measurement. I think I am upgrading both my HAAS mills to a German laser system in the next Three months. [IMG]http://i813.photobucket.com/albums/zz57/mastercamsml/Laser_Nano_01.png[/IMG] - To mill metal with all the proper tooling, and to get decent tool-life.....you NEED Industrial tooling solution. Not baby spindle with just One collet and drawbar. Far superior T.I.R., ability to use Standard(Imperial) and Metric tools at same time in wide range of shank sizes, longer tool life and results are more accurate.
