A closer look before a second life

Current photographs, operating videos and a clear discussion of machine condition help you buy used equipment with confidence.

Review the bed, work table, spindle area, controls, handwheels and accessible components. Current photographs of the actual unit are more useful than a generic catalogue picture.

FENTO checks running stability, mechanical precision and consistent operation. Ask the team to explain the checks performed on the specific machine and to provide an operating video or inspection report.

Key parts such as bearings, spindles and electrical components may need attention. Confirm any cleaning, repair, replacement work and function testing that will be completed before shipment.

Keep the model and machine identification details with your purchase records. Clear photographs and part references make future spare-parts enquiries easier.
