[QUOTE="Wainwright, post: 283378, member: 20457"] You can say that about almost any milling machine. If you expect to buy a milling unit with no maintenance for five years maybe it's best you outsource your work to a milling center and not worry about it. To replace a spindle on a Roland is about $2,000 and typically those spindles run for about 2,000+ hours, 20 mins a unit that works out to be 6,000 units for $2,000 or about 33 cents a unit (not to mention the Roland warranty covers the first spindle in the first two years of ownership). I've used and sold Amann Girrbach, Roland, imes-icore, VHF, and Sirona. Trust me, no machine is perfect. Lastly, I'm not sure what you are referring to when you say "buying old tech" milling by nature is pretty old technology. Does it cut zirconia crowns and other indications with consistency and accuracy? Yes, it does. Almost every machine on the market does. [/QUOTE]
