Espaço de decisão
Decide with the evidence, not the brochure.
Set your requirements and region, check a shortlist and its options against the record, cost every way to get the work done, from freight and rigging to warranty and financing, and leave with a packet you can share. Blank figures stay unknown: the workspace never invents a total.

Requirements
What must the machine do, and where?
Your region sets the currency, the typical power supply and the service directories. Anything left blank stays an open question, not an assumption.
Lista de seleção
How does each machine measure up?
Each requirement shows a documented match, a documented mismatch or an unresolved question, with the figure from the record.
Configuration
Options and add-ons, machine by machine.
Mark what the work needs and what each offer includes. Options already seen in that model's listings are flagged.
Production paths
Every way to get the work done, every cost.
Tick the paths you are weighing and enter the figures you have. Each cost line links to the matching guide or directory. Quotes beat estimates; blank cells stay unknown.

| Three-year view | ||||||
The three-year view adds three years of yearly cost to the one-time cost, and only when every figure in that path is filled in. Waiting can be the right answer.
Financiamento
What it costs to pay over time.
Payments use the one-time cost of each path minus the down payment. Rates and terms come from your lender; tax treatment such as Section 179 is a question for your accountant.

Confirm field for machine.
Get a figure for cost under path.
Confirm the electrical supply each machine needs; most CNC machines need three-phase power.
Read the control model and part numbers off each used machine and check them against the control support list at /control-support/.
Confirm each machine is built for your grid: supply. A machine built for the other frequency may need a converter or a different motor package.
Travel is not usable part envelope: check fixtures, tool length and part clearance with the seller or manufacturer.
For a used machine: spindle runout, ball-screw backlash, tool changer, cutting hours, crash history and service records.
Ask your insurer about transit cover and adding the machine to your equipment policy.
Ask whether the floor needs a structural engineer's review for the machine's weight and footprint.
Get the warranty and service terms in writing: what is covered, response time, parts availability and who services this control.
