I had the same board cut on both machines and I have spend considerable time in the factories to be able to comment.Īt first sight the two machines are much the same. I have had experience with preshapes from the APS3000 machine with toolpaths from both APS3000 and Shape3D softwares and also I've had experience with the new Akushaper machine and the Akushaper toolpath software. The surf industry is going through a strong correction this year. It's out of control.Įconomics 101 = Supply verses Demand - Plenty of capacity and little demand? There are so many machines from San Diego to Santa Cruz. There is no room for anymore machines in California. Out of money! Let the cutting services that exist do your boards. You have another $100,000 in cash for back up once you pay for your machine so you can cut boards until you run So if your reading this and want to buy a AKU Surfboard Shaper make sure Shapers now day's want the boards 98% finished. The fail blank gets charged back to the owner of the machine.

Plus they can reject the miscuts even if it's 1/32".
Staff shapers make more than machine owners. Otherwise who will be retarded enough to buy a machine with today's ecomony? Negative comments travel fastest than positive ones! In order to generate more sales of their machines? Freeze would want to make it easierįor his customers including past clients to maintain a decent margin Only Pro-Cam or KKL make a decent margin. Were's the ROI? It's a horrible business model (having a cuttng service). You can do boat parts for $200/hr or surfboards $25 - $75/hr.

To have a software war is out of control. It's hard enough running these machines and keeping everything right. It's sad that these AKU guy's aren't more customer service driven? LOLĬutting surfboards is a thankless job.
To many things in startup allocation or things running in the background and AKU will overload cpu capacityĭon't know if any of this will help, or if I'm just taking up discussion space, but hey.at least I'm trying.
In the beginning because the program is a HOG.
AKU SHAPER MACHINE FOR SALE PC
I have a fairly powerfull PC but I did have freezes and crashes On PC, there has to be enough system resources allocated to allow Aku to function correctly. While AKU will work on mac, my experience is that it is not fully functional and will cause random crashesĪs well as the files not translating correctly for any kind of transfer.Ģ. I just thought I'd throw them out there.ġ. You guys that are experts, forgive me if they are too obvious. I have only been using the free version, but here are a couple of fixes that I figured out. One of the issues was a mistake I made in the program. I got to help him figure out a couple of issues we were having(he did most of the figuring lol)Ĭutting one of my designs. I feel very fortunate.īoth of Mikes machines are very cool. I really value the experience of all you guys that have been doing this much longer than I have. He has really taken care of me and even been kind of like a mentor in some ways. IT IS FORCING ME TO CONTACT AKU FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTION WHICH COULD PUT US AT FURTHER RISK>. RIGHT NOW I CANNOT UNINSTALL THE PROGRAM. WE HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A GOOD EXPLANATION FROM AKU/APS AS TO HOW EXACTLY THE SOFTWARE WORKS AND WHAT WEAK SECURITY LINKS IT MAY HAVE IF ANY. IF THEIR IS NO RISK I WOULD EXPECT THE AKU TEAM TO RESPOND. WE WANT THE TRUTH IN REGARDS TO THE RISK OF USING THE SOFTWARE. WE PLAN ON POSTING OUR FINDINGS ON THIS FORUM AND WILL USE AN OUTSIDER TO PREPARE THE DOC'S. THEIR IS A POSSIBLE PRIVACY ISSUE THAT WE HAVE ASSEMBLED A VOLUNTARY TEAM OF PROFESSIONALS TO INVESTIGATE.
SOME OF THE POST HAVE BEEN DELETED AND REPLACED BY SHORT SHOUT OUTS WHICH ARE A RECORD OF THE EMOTION ONE GOES THROUGH WHEN YOU LOSE THE ABILITY TO KEEP YOUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS PREDICTABLE. AT THIS POINT WE NEED DOCUMENTATION NOT VERBAL AGREEMENTS. I GOT A CALL AFTER I STARTED THIS POST BUT REFUSED TO ACCEPT IT. WE CONTACTED THEM VIA FORM ON THEIR SUPPORT SITE AND GOT NO RESPONSE. TODAY WE HAVE NO SOFTWARE AND HAVE HAD NO ACCEPTABLE CONTACT BY AKU.
