Machine specifications

Knowing the working area, the type of control, the ability to cut, the extraction and even the speed for production is also a great idea. Places and working conditions to which the machine will be exposed are further key elements to be taken into account.

Price

We all have a budget earmarked for the acquisition of our machines. After evaluating the available budget, our best advice is to look for the machines providing the best option between price and quality ratio.
