If you are about to purchase a router you may wish to read this very carefully. Buying a FlexiCAM router is your first positive step to be in business unlike my first machine which I paid a lot of money for, to not go into business. The lowest price unfortunately got me involved with the lowest people. The first router was using stepper motors and was aluminum. Good vibrations should be left to the Beach Boys not an industrial router. It was too light ,the motor too small and the service was not there, even from the managing director. The FlexiCAM experience was very different. The machine is only what you would expect from the Germans... Solid, reliable and well designed for easy maintenance. The machine is quiet, smooth on curves and is simple to operate so that training can easily be done in half a day even if you had no experience . People make the difference and this is certainly the case with this company. At no time have I ever had to wait for more than a few hours for advice if I had a question about a job. With the machine hooked to the internet it can be accessed from any place in the world and “tweaked” for your own ways of machining. The table is solid and the router with the toolchanger is a dream to operate. Cabinet doors cut out of MDF are a breeze to cut and the machine handles them with ease. I have never regretted choosing this router, my only regret was not buying it first.
