More Information on the Elite upgrade kit.
What is the elite upgrade kit and who is it for?
The elite upgrade kit is only for users who have non-elite machines (x-35/x-50) who want to turn them into elite machines. If you already have an Elite machine, this kit is not for you as you already have everything in the kit.
Is this Upgrade program trading in my full machine? No. This is not a full machine trade in. You are not sending us your full machine in exchange for a new machine. This upgrade kit is a handful of parts to take your current, non-elite machine and change it into a Elite model. Some customers still have yet to unbox their current Onefinity. We will not be taking your unboxed machine in exchange for a new one. You must unbox your machine and upgrade via the components in the kit.
Do the kits upgrade from smaller size to a larger size machine?
No. The elite upgrade kit will only include the electronics, motors, and wiring to go from a non-elite to an elite version of your machine. The upgrade kit does not upgrade from a smaller rail size to a larger rail size. Unfortunately, Due to the cost of multiple Y rails (and possibly an x rail) needed and shipping, it’s financially impractical and more economical for users to purchase a full Foreman machine.
If you need the Elite Foreman 4x4, you’ll want to purchase the whole machine here: https://www.onefinitycnc.com/product-page/elite-foreman-48-x48-cut-area

What Warranty do I get? In addition, we are very excited to announce that with the purchase of the Elite Upgrade Kit you will be receiving a complete one (1) year warranty on your entire machine! Not only will the components in the Elite Upgrade Kit receive a one (1) year warranty, we will be extending that warranty to cover the existing components (as long as they are currently in good working order!) To clarify, when you purchase an Elite Upgrade Kit, your entire Onefinity CNC will be upgraded to have a full one (1) year warranty even if your machine is 3+ years old. Cool, right? It’s like getting a brand new machine!

(We are unable to apply this discount to any other machine type including x-50 and Elite machines and their upgrade kits).
