If you want maximum productivity for your factory it is wise to consider HSM. Most of the times a custom made CNC machining center it’s far more expensive than HSM. In our mold components business we adopted this technology for some time.

Jesse sums it pretty well.Dont think you will get by without using higher end equipment to make it sucssefull.That includes the machine tool,programing software,cutters and holders.One other thing to relize is the spindle will have to be replaced at some point and that is expensive as well.

You should look at Starragheckert machine tools from Switzerland.
They offer both rigid machine concept for hard material and precision.
