Can Northwood CNC Stone Machines be shipped overseas?
Generally, the answer to this question is no, since the machines cannot be packed into a shipping container. We designed the Northwood CNC Stone Machining Centers to be very rigid using state-of-the-art Finite Element Analysis (F.E.A) Engineering software. This resulted in single piece bases fabricated from very heavy structural steel. The machine structures are so stiff that the entire machine can be lifted with a single (LARGE) forklift! The machines can be shipped overseas with special shipping crates, however, trying to service and support the products would present the same problems our competitors have experienced in trying to service and support their machines here!
