1. Operators love the control.
2. One of the most unreliable machines I've ever come across.
3. Made in taiwan, with lots of "new" parts that are no good from the factory
4. Boards and control parts are way overpriced, and hard to troubleshoot.
5. Low end machines, buy a HAAS, more reliability, and a lot cheaper for parts.
6. I will say service from Hurco is good, they respond fast.
I second that!!!!! I also am currently working on Hurco's and could not have put it in better words myself.
I think anyone that thinks a hurco is a good machine probably never had the pleasure to run something like Haas, Okuma or Mazak.
All comments made are my opinion!
