Hello.

I'm not very good in the field of retrofitting of CNC machines, but I know electronics and programming. And I have an expeirence of PLC programming. My friend has Biese Rover 16 CNC machine and it's CNC system doesn't work properly. So he asked me to help him to find somebody, who can help with it.

I've found some companies, which supply professional CNC systems and I think it is better than use something like MACH 3 or LiuxCNC. I think professional CNC system has to be reliable and to have a full technical support.
All other components (motors, servodrivers, relays etc.) are in a good state so we don't plan to upgrade them. only CNC system.
So, can anybody tell me what is the average price for this work? I mean to disconect the old CNC system, to install the new one, to program the new CNC for Rover's functions (tool change, offsets etc.)
The machine is based in Germany.


Thanks for your replies.
