Hi, new to the forum and looking to get into machining. For now looking and learning, I am hoping to get a new or used mill in the near future. Ultimately, I would like it to be CNC, be it a machine that comes with it or a package I install down the road.
My question is if you have a CNC machine, is there a need for DRO? Wouldn't the exact DRO info be available on the PC or CNC screen and thus make it redundant? Are there any operations that you could not use the info from the CNC and the DRO could be a benefit?
Thanks
