I have a PRT with the slower board. I have an opportunity to develop a working relationship with a local company cutting some parts, mostly basic parts out of 3/4 sheet goods. Some birch ply and lots of MDF.
I am wanting to upgrade to the faster control board soon but cannot spring for it just now.
Here is the question, How fast can you consistantly cut the above materials with the faster board.
I think I will bid these parts based on the machining time in Aspire. But I know that if I base it on the slow cutting speeds that I am doing now it will probably be too high. I don't mind eating the difference until I can get the new board.
I am a newbie so if I am going at this all wrong please point me in the right direction.
Also what kind of hour rate do you put on your machine time.
Thanks
Blake
