-
Serious makers, sign makers, and small businesses that require precision and repeatability for professional work without the footprint of a full industrial machine.
-
Yes. Because they utilize ball screw drives on all three axes and closed-loop motors, they maintain consistent accuracy across repeated jobs.
-
While optimized for all wood species, these machines effectively process plastics, composites, and non-ferrous metals like aluminum, as well as etching on glass and marble.
-
Both models require 220V single-phase power. We recommend a 20-amp circuit and will confirm your setup with you before ordering.
