Unfortunately, the investment costs of CNC machines, which are the backbone of production, are quite high in our country. For this reason, as a requirement of economic conditions, the second-hand CNC market is very popular in our country as well as all over the world. However, it is really a big question mark how accurate measurement and evaluation of companies that want to invest in second-hand CNCs are in this regard. It would be more accurate to evaluate this issue under two main headings.
Second Hand CNC Investments Made from Abroad
Second-hand CNCs found in different industrial countries around the world seem quite easy to find and buy at first glance, in today’s conditions. But when we get into the business carefully, we encounter many critical issues. One of them is the legislation our country applies for second-hand CNCs from abroad.
Unfortunately, many of the second-hand CNC imports that are made or intended to be made are done in an incorrect and illegal way, far beyond the required legislation. In this way, companies that make investments contrary to the legislation, and therefore illegally, are followed up at certain periods and are subject to serious sanctions by the relevant institutions.
In addition, one of the biggest mistakes made is that second-hand CNCs, which are planned to be purchased from any country abroad and whose investment is planned, are evaluated only with their prices. However, whether the machine works or not, the deficiencies, if any, should be determined by experts, and the costs necessary to complete these deficiencies should be taken into account. In the end, the most important thing that should not be forgotten is the existence of our expectation to create an added value for our company and therefore our country with the second hand CNC that we bought for the price we paid abroad.
Therefore, in second-hand CNC investments that are desired to be made from foreign sources in this way, it is absolutely necessary to contact the domestic authorized sales and service representative of that brand and request the necessary expertise support. In addition, support should be requested from a relevant customs consultancy firm in order to determine compliance with imports, and then it should be prevented from experiencing a legal problem and being subject to sanctions.
Second Hand CNC Investments Made with Domestic Supply
Second-hand CNC investments made in our country are relatively safer than second-hand CNC investments made abroad. At least, we can always reach the company we purchased from, and we can find a corporate interlocutor for support, questions or problems after the purchase. It is also a great advantage that most of the second-hand CNCs in the country are imported by distributor companies located in Turkey. In this way, we have the opportunity to easily provide service support and spare parts. However, in addition to these advantages, just like the second-hand CNCs imported from abroad, the second-hand CNC to be invested in the country should not be evaluated only with its price, it should also be taken into account whether the machine works or not, the deficiencies, if any, are determined by experts and the costs necessary to complete these deficiencies. It is very important that the price paid in second-hand CNC investments made with domestic supply remains within the economy of our country.
So, is it possible to buy a second hand CNC?
Of course, second-hand CNC machine investment can be made at home or abroad. Moreover, investments made by taking into account the costs resulting from an accurate measurement and evaluation can be very economical and profitable.
Of course, no matter what the circumstances and conditions, second-hand CNC investment always contains unforeseen risks. This issue should always be considered by the company that plans to make the investment, benefit/cost analysis should be done well and production planning for a second-hand CNC should never be done considering a new CNC.
