These CNC machines never cease to amaze me. Controlling electric motors and their loads that precisely isn't easy.

I’ve ran C.N.C Horizontal machine that circular interpolate and hold .0002 tolerance. In the past we had to bore the hole to hold that kind of tolerance. C.N.C lathes new can cost you $ 750,000.00 easy.
