  • One of the newest tools in Frank's shop is a CNC Router Parts industrial-grade CNC cutting machine. This router and plasma cutter is actually a kit that you can put together, and we go through that process with the help of CNC Router Parts' Drew Cairns. During the assembly, we learn how this machine was designed and see its capabilities in the making of some cool furniture! Next up, plasma cutting!

    You had me at "plasma" …but more seriously, seeing the capability of such efficient manufacturing is awesome. It's very inspiring! I could even see a future version that will be able to place its own plastic nails after recognizing where on the material was safe to place them. Next step: machine orders its own supplies after you tell it what you want it to make…
    I love it!

    I like the idea of combining the plasma with the router. However, anyone doing so would want to pay real close attention when using the plasma after the router. One of those sparks into any sawdust around the shop can light it up. A spark can sit there for a period of time before bursting to flame in sawdust. Make certain that your shop is spotless beforehand.
    I like this machine. It seems to be well worth considering for our operation.

    Worth the investment - CNC Routers, even though initially expensive, can pay for themselves just like any other tool, it just might take a little longer. You can also make multiples of some amazing things. You can make 50 of something and it doesn't burn you out like it would if you were camped out at your band-saw for a week.

  • @cornpop7805
    @cornpop7805 2 года назад

    I used to work for a major Japanese CNC mfg for machining, mainly metal. I have also worked with many other industrial CNC machines during my lengthy career. Every single one of them, considered the longitudinal direction, the X-axis. What they are calling the gantry, would be the Y-Axis. It's kind of tomAto tomato, but it just seems strange that these and some other router machines have X and Y swapped - VS the machining world. I will say that the structure and the mechanisms look really well done, for an extrusion based machine.
    Another thing, the Japanese company I worked for made very large CNC mills (machining centers) which had ball screws for axes over 16ft and we had no issues with ball-screw whip. Why? Because those ball-screws were over 3" in diameter. They were also hollow and had chilled oil running through them. As well, they had followers, whose job it was to keep the ball-screw centered. I'm not saying he's wrong, just saying that what he said does not apply to all calibers of machine.

    When all of the sudden right out of the clear blue sky some asshole starts shitting on some guys parade, comparing his first Rad Rod to the fucking space shuttle.
    What amazes me is with all the experts and down trotters that appear to exist. Why aren't more of you doing how to video's to help some of the less engineering inclined .

  • @JohnCasale
    @JohnCasale 6 лет назад +5

    Love it. Excellent idea doing 1/2 plasma table and 1/2 wood table.
    Edit: Wonder if you could put a full-length water table on as a permanent fixture, then a wood table on top if you wanted to cut wood parts intermittently.

    • @Painteagle
      @Painteagle 6 лет назад +2

      I'm sure that there are situations where that would be reasonable, but here's the issues that you'll run into by doing that:
      1) you lose some Z height. Usually this isn't an issue when dealing with relatively thin 2D cuts, but it's crucial when dealing with 3D parts.
      2) your table is no longer perfectly level and when switching, you would have to re-mill the wood top in order to get it level again. This isn't as much of an issue if you're dealing again with thin 2D parts or even very small 3D parts but any sort of engraving or relief V-grooves are sensitive to a 0.005" difference.
      3) the table won't be as sturdy. You could still cut out wood, but cutting aluminum would cause the table to shift and lose accuracy by a great deal.
      So in summary, If you're only using a small range of what the machine can do, then yes that's entirely a viable option, but halving the 1/2, 1/2 table is like having two smaller tables where, with some work, makes a full sized table.
      Great Idea though!

    Данные станки эксплуатируются уже на протяжении нескольких лет. Опыт который
    приобретён за это время говорит, что :
    - делать стульчики на высокотехнологичных станках слишком дорогое удовольствие.
    Необходимо соизмерять сам инструмент и задача которая ставиться перед ним.
    Нельзя микроскопом забивать гвозди !
    - совмещение на одном станке фрезера и плазмы только удорожает станок.
    Это разные по своему технологическому процессу операции, которые требуют
    и разных условий их выполнения.Тем более совместно они просто не требуются
    для выполнения Ваших задач.

  • @ericrenner3062

    • @ericrenner3062
      @ericrenner3062 3 года назад

      I answered my own question. By removing the top place of the Z-axis for the tool on the left hand side you can easily slide the dust cover down and into place. Great video by the way. Very informative.
