Tony, I'm pretty sure most of the Pullmax models could easily be used for panel duplication. Really, it all depends on which machines come up for sale when you're ready to move and if they are tagged at a price you're prepared to pay. Again as previously mentioned by other posters here, some of the bigger units (P-9's etc.) are very heavy behemoths and take up copious real estate.

My P-21 is also quite large and pretty heavy, yet mounted on urethane tread castors which is a plus. When I bought mine, I didn't know that there were various models to choose from, so bought the first machine which presented at a machine tool dealer. And as luck goes, I was most fortunate to cop a P-21 which had hardly been used!

Also of possible interest, the P-21 motor is a 3-phase dual voltage 380/220V specimen which allows it to run it on a single phase to 3-phase 220V VFD. I suspect that motors fitted to other Pullmax series machines could also be dual voltage capable... Remember to wire the motor in "star" configuration for 380 and in "delta" for 220V supply.
