Description
A CNC Router uses CNC (computer numerical control).
They are similar to a CNC milling machine or VMC but used mainly to machine shapes in wood.
Safety Point!
- Fully enclosed machines with interlocks are advised for school use.
- Only Lasers with the laser beam totally enclosed should be used in schools and an interlock provided to prevent operation unless the laser is enclosed - check Laser Safety with supplier.
- Always isolate any CNC machine before adjusting tools or work piece and ensure hands are well clear of the table before switching on - when the program runs : the cutter will move!
