You basically say whatever the machine does wrong, it does it wrong the 
same way every time, right?

What about the software, how do i get the file i need to feed the cnc?
No point in building a expensive cnc machine and then it is impossible to 
get the right file.

I reckon the "generating the file" thing would be even harder if one 
thinks of pick and place?
