A Comprehensive Guide on CNC Routers

CNC is abbreviation for Computer Numerical Control. The CNC technology, to put in straight words, has revolutionized the way a majority of industrial equipment and components are manufactured. CNC Router is one such machine which runs on this technology. It is a computer controlled machine designed for cutting 2D and 3D shapes along a path predefined by software.

CNC Router is not an ordinary machine which cuts different types of materials. This machine precisely cuts material into different shapes which are designed within the computer system that controls the machine. In this machine the computer aided design is created with the help of CAM (computer aided manufacturing) software. This software further converts the whole design into G-code which is decipherable for the CNC Router machine.

Benefits Of Using CNC Routers

• The key benefit of using CNC Routers is that cutting process is completely automated. The automation of cutting procedure increases the productivity of manufacturing unit, while decreasing the amount of manual labor which would have been otherwise required.
• Precise designs of products can be created by CNC Routers. Apart from achieving precision in design, frequency of errors that occur while cutting material can be reduced significantly.
• An array of designs can be made by employing CNC Routers for cutting of material. Few types of this machine facilitate 3D motion of workpiece which enables cutting and designing of different sides of the workpiece.
• CNC Routers can be used to cut a wide array of materials including solid wood, plywood, aluminium, polystyrene, etc.

Types Of CNC Routers

CNC Wood Router

As the name suggests this type of CNC Router is used for cutting wooden workpiece. It works on a Cartesian coordinate system which enables 3D motion control. This machine is ideal for product development, engineering prototyping and production work. Cnc Wood Router Machine can also be used for woodcutting and designing to make artistic pieces.

CNC Metal Router

CNC Routers are used in mills for removing material from a metallic workpiece. These types of routers have varied cutting applications which are industry specific. CNC Metal Routers are widely used for machining of parts to achieve precise shapes and sizes.
