I was told by Santinelli that the closest intelligent blocker to the ICE-2000 is the ICE-1000 which carries a price tag of $19,000.
A little searching on the internet brought me to this company, Optical Equipment Center. Their price tag for the ICE-1000 was $2,475. Other than their ICE-1000 being a refurbished model...I can't see why there is such a large difference in price.
Is anyone currently using an ICE-1000 intelligent blocker? Pro's/con's?
Is anyone using an ICE-1000 intelligent blocker with a Santinelli (Nidek) LE-9000SX edger? Pro's/con's?
Has anyone done business with the Optical Equipment Center?
Your thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated. :)
