Hello

I have just took a big step for myself and bought my first cnc milling machine, its a 1997 hurco bmc 30 with ultimax 3 controller. It is local to me so i was planning on picking it up myself by hiring a lorry. My concern is i would like to hire a curtainsided rigid, but they can only take up to 2.5m high if loading though the side. When i was down looking at the machine i forgot to measure its height. I can hire a flatbed but it would mean having to cover the machine as there is no chance it will stay dry in ireland.

Does anyone know what height they are when the head is down for transporting?

Best regards Richard
