    Hi Flight,

    Hey, I'm from Saskatchewan, too. Small world, eh?

    4 AXis? Check out the Camsoftcorp banner, or post a question in that section. I am supposing you need coordinated XY motion in 2 planes?

    Sounds a lot like wire edm requirements.
    First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.

    (Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)
