Hello Everyone!

This is my first post so bear with me.

I work for a university mechanical workshop in England and we may be getting some money availiable to upgrade , we have cnc machines here but at the moment and do all our programming with cadcam. I would like to have some machines with conversational programming, at the moment I have discounted HAAS because their controllers are a bit low tech compared to others and their TM2 is limited on the Y axis.

Could any of you guys give me any opinions of the centroid, prototrak, or anilam 3000/5000 systems. At the moment the Centroid is the favourite because it seems very user friendly, it would be great to hear from anybody who uses any of these controllers.

Thanks in advance
