Certainly superior to an old drill press machine but out of the reach of most shops. Probably 60K or so for a Newen which is not to be confused with "Neway" which are hand driven cutters with flimsy pilots. I have all the old stuff and haven't busted them out for so many years I lost count.

  I though NEWEN was they way to go.
Neway
and Only for cookie cutter production... While I am Positive that a "round" seat like a "machine" can produce is the Pinnacle... Stones are extremely Flexible...And if you only do limited numbers... well... they suit me just fine

They are redoing their website. So incomplete. But no they aren't for cutting uninstalled seats. A single point cnc controlled seat and guide machine. Supposedly "Nascar" type  technology so to speak. $60K and up or so what I heard.
I don't know if any of the machinist on this site use them or not. If so or if they know more hopefully they can disprove or prove if they have any merits.
