We have a CR Onsrud Panel Pro CNC for nesting. Never had any major issues with it. Would really like to swap for a Weeke if I could.

We have a Routech CNC Router (nesting) and an older Morbidelli (point-to-point). We like them both and have another Morbidelli ordered to replace the old one. It's about 15 years old - before TCP/IP, so I can't connect it to the network. Our shop foreman deals with the service for both machines, but other than the fact that the Morbidelli is so old I believe we have been satisfied with the service for both machines.

I've had a little experience with an older Morbidelli with pretty good service and support. I've never had first hand experience with Biesse, but heard from a lot of people say they are nice machines but parts are very expensive. If you are not dead set on those 3 brands, I've had very good service and support from Busellato. I haven't looked at their machines closely in the past few years, but I worked with a high volume caswork company that ran a Busellato for years with very little problems.

We have a Venture 2.5, and I love it. Much easier to use and maintain than our prehistoric BP145. No experience with any other brands, but have heard nasty things from people who had Biesse's and swapped to Weeke's...German machines just seem to be more agreeable than the Italians (just what I hear, no experience).

We are in the market for a new router, (point to point or nesting) we currently have a weeke bhc 750. We are considering Morbidelli, Biesse and Weeke. Any body have any issues, complaints or praises about any of these new machines, service or otherwise??. Any input would be helpful.

Thanks
