[QUOTE="DevonR, post: 51651, member: 2976"] OKay, gotta chime in here and give my two sense. I've had my eye on this machine for quite some time. WE currently have their manual mill system.. it's fantastic, just labour instensive. I've gone to see the m5 in action. It is awesome. Very precise! The fit is fantastic. It mills down to a .5mm burr which helps with those terrible preps docs give us. When you do a full contour prettau case and select 'fine' for the milling process, it comes out soooo smoooth. You don't see any millings lines. I don't see a problem with purchasing pucks from zirkonzahn as they are resonable priced when compared to the other big companies out there (btw, i'm pretty much against aftermarket pucks, don't trust their zirconia... it's cheaper for a reason... ever notice how soft it is to grind the stuff?) As for the metal milling part. Unless you are looking to pump a tonne of metal cases at the machine, i think it would do the trick for ya. But it certainly wouldn't be a metal production machine persay. Finally, the machine uses the ExoCAD software which has an add on module to import STL files... so it's partially open Cheers, hope that helps. d. [/QUOTE]
