Purchase New vs. Retrofit
Many times all the expenses related to the purchase of a new machine are not considered until after the decision. Such as, machine delivery lead time, freight, new concrete pad, electrical, reallocation of space, and debugging after arrival. Low Cost Investment Normally, the typical retrofit candidate is probably already written off. Eagle converts this good "carcass" to CNC power by replacing the existing mechanical gear drives, and Acme Screws, with Servo Motors and precision ground ball screws. A new Mitsubishi or other control, along with covers and paint, finish the machine to a "like new" appearance and operation. Tax Advantages In many cases there are tax advantages as personal property taxes are reduced to the retrofit portion of the machine. Consult with your accountant on how this may apply to your situation. 24 Month Warranty All mechanical work performed by Eagle Machine Tool has a six (6) month / 2000 hour parts and labor warranty. All new electronic components have a twelve (12) month parts and labor warranty. Mitsubishi offers a twenty-four (24) month replacement warranty on all of their components. |
Turn Around Time Eagle designs and documents all parts used in the conversion process. On machines we have already retrofitted the turn around time is dramatically reduced. Custom Training Included with your retrofit investment is up to sixteen (16) hours of hands on training to enable quick start to cutting chips after the machine is installed. Documentation A complete set of electrical prints are furnished with the machine as well as control operation manuals to meet future maintenance and trouble shooting issues. Customer Support Follow-up after the installation is critical after completion of the retrofit. Eagle maintains regular customer contact even after the retrofit is completed. |
