I know right, this makes me want to put my MPCNC back together (though I think I will need to do some upgrades ie: looks like OP has larger belts, and possibly bigger steppers than I used).
@@brandonsmoot4056 Actually, I did. Cut some wood and plexi and made a clock. Then, wanting to cut aluminum, I started to add a compressed air/dust collection system but life intervened and I didn’t get back to it for months. Coincident with your comment, I just finished the new hardware last night and it seems to work. The air blows and the vacuum sucks, at least. However, to really test it I need to relearn the software because it’s been months since I touched that side of things. Hopefully, I’ll be cutting again soon (and fight the urge to rebuild the whole thing with the new primo parts).
Each time I watch your videos I can't help admiring your MPCNC, a great achievement indeed. Amazing that a relatively "cheap" built-from-scratch CNC meets such level of precision... left me speechless. Thank you!
Reminds of my first 3d printer, a prusa clone, a wooden frame of 6mm plywood. After many months of tweaking I got a single perfect print. Then it got out of alignment again and gave up. Got a corexy now of my own design and without much tweaking just prints excellent prints every time. You must've spent many days adjusting and experimenting to get it to this level, better than my ox cnc build. That has now been replaced with a much more rigid design of my own using linear rails bought from aliexpress with some reinforcements here and there, with 20mm thick aluminium tooling plates and steel tubing. Incredible results anyway you slice it!
That is good accuracy for 6mm belts and NEMA17's. I happen to have at least a dozen of older NEMA 17's I bought from ebay quite a while ago, maybe I can finally put them to use on a lowrider 2 version I'm designing. I like the concept, but I see room for immediate improvement.
An often overlooked measurement that can affect your CAM accuracy is the diameter of the bit(s) being used. If the actual diameter is different (usually smaller) than the nominal diameter, using the nominal introduces inaccuracies into your CAM.
Honestly when I read the title i was no way this can be.. And now.. .that is insane.. how are you getting the rigidity to do that depth of cut? Plus hats off to your feeds and speeds.. they must be spot on.
Wow, awesome CNC mill! You have enough aluminum wool to make a sweater. 1 dislike at this point? Must be Sarah Connor wanting to stop all automated machines before they become sentient. Awesome video.
I have tried several different end mills from aliexpress and didn't noticed any difference. Just search for "single flute carbide end mill 6mm" and go with the cheapest one.
for me the reason im looking at a mpcnc is I dont really have a reliable way to cut metal and id like the additional capabilities that a cnc offers for woodworking as im not artistic in anyway so using a computer and a machine to turn wood into a design is a amazing option for me
Great results! One question though. I remember an older video where you modified your MPCNC. Those modifications don't seem to be present here. Am I missing something or did you not end up keeping them for some reason?
I published an update on thingiverse as well as on the v1engineering forum about that: The glued belt started to curl up. Instead of fixing it I took the chance and switched to a single belt. As I didn't notice any difference, except that it's easier to set the right belt tenison, I am keeping it.
👌 Ich habe ja selber eine MPCNC gebaut mit vielen vielen Erweiterungen und Änderungen genauso ähnlich wie Deine Optimierungen. Ich hoffe es kommen noch ein paar Videoa vom Fräsen mit der Mostly. Mein Abo hast Du schon lange. Viele Grüße von Michael (vom Kanal BASTEL MICHL) 👍
I read on the comments that you removed the 15mm belt on an angled iron. Right now I am confused on what I am seeing.I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A VIDEO SUMMING UP what you have made with this MPCNC.
Would love to understand why you don't use the dual belt system anymore on your MPCNC. I'm building my own soon and was thinking of using your mods. Why did you remove them? ( I see you kept the 15mm belt though, seems like a good idea)
You mentioned a Chinese brand. The flute section seems long on yours can you list the single flute bit so we can find it. thanks. I found a ton of them but hesitant as they tend to break easily. Great video!
as for the surface quality it's not the best thing, but as for chips and sounds - it looks pretty healthy, for just 1 part per week it's more than enough. But after I had an experience with cnc6040 and then tried something with steel frame, mgn rails and steel table all this stuff that cuts less than 2mm deep with feedrate less than 100mm/sec for me is just aluminum scratcher but not a cutter
Is there a reason everyone recommends single flute bits for the MPCNC? I haven’t had many problems with 2 or 3 flutes, so I’m just wondering if I’m missing something… This video is great btw!
I've heard other people say chip evacuation is difficult. I think it has to do with having to run at a high RPM because most of the cheap spindles don't have great torque at lower RPMs.
Sau cool, ehrlich dein Video hat mich dazu inspiriert, mich auch zum Bau einer MPCNC durchzuringen. 😀 Welche Maße hat denn deine MPCNC? Ich möchte meine auch lieber etwas kleiner, dafür aber verwindungssteifer und präziser bauen. Deine Abmessungen sehen mir nach einem guten Kompromiss aus.
Mal wieder super Video. Was hast du für ein Ausblassystem ? Suche auch was, was mich an diese Standard Schnellkuplung eines Kompressors anschließen kann. Hast du da ein Tipp für mich ? Vg
Is there anything that makes your mpcnc so capable compared to some other ones? I saw your build video but it does look like you are using your double belt system so I don't know what it is.
I'm so sorry to ask, at 4:30 Your talking about doing a Helical cut and you say something at the end, "I'm just not able to avoid some..." Was that "Shadow" Cuts or "Shallow" Cuts? I just really want to be sure I understand what you were talking about here because The whole Helical cuts setup is still a little confusing for me. Thanks :)
Wenn ich es richtig gesehen habe, dann hast du die AMB FME-P 1050 Spindel in Verwendung. Macht es Sinn die paar Euro für AMB FME 1050 DI zu investieren? Die FME-P soll ja eine bis zu 3x höhere Rundlaufgenauigkeit haben, es steht aber nirgends welche Rundlaufgenauigkeit die FME 1050 DI hat Wenn du dir nochmal eine Spindel kaufen würdest, würdest du wieder die FME-P nehmen und warum?
You seem to use something beefier than the usual GT2 timing belts. Care to lose a few words about that, or a link if you described that somewhere else already? Your setup seems to be exceptionally sturdy and stable. Any special tricks you might want to share? Thanks in advance!
There are some modifications to the original MPCNC like a different foot design or 9mm GT2 belts instead of 6mm. I guess using a high quality spindle also makes a huge difference.

Ok, I'm impressed .
nice Johnny bravo hair.
I never thought that MPCNC is capable of cutting aluminum with that finish and THAT precision!
You have my respect and an instant sub, sir!
I know right, this makes me want to put my MPCNC back together (though I think I will need to do some upgrades ie: looks like OP has larger belts, and possibly bigger steppers than I used).
Finally someone giving actual feeds and speeds instead of some "it all depends on several factors" bs I read all the time.
Thanks for providing all settings, this is one of the most helpful videos I've seen so far.
Für mich als Anfänger, habe gerade mit dem Bau der MPCNC begonnen, ist das was Du hier zeigst beeindruckend und Hilfreich. Danke dafür, Abo hast Du
This has inspired me to stop watching videos tonight and get back to work on my 1/2 finished MPCNC.
True story
Same here. Mine is assembled and I have cut foam with it, time to move up to some wood!
Did you finish it?

Very, very impressive, and the finish is also very good. That is one amazing MPCNC.

What you need now is a furnace to cast all that swarf into new parts or blanks
Wow this cuts like butter... can't believe how easy this performs without any problem.
Awesome, the final push I needed to actually try and build one of these. Subscribed 👍
my god...
but how?
what?
very impressive! thank you for sharing your experience with us!
I very much appreciate this. Nice knowing just how far one can push the MPCNC.
Cool! Excellent info. I really appreciate the specs and details!

Many have said it already, but very impressive. Keep the vids. coming. Very enjoyable.
You can also use tabs to keep your part in place at the end of your cut. Of course, it will require some manual finishing of your part...
Honestly when I read the title i was no way this can be.. And now.. .that is insane.. how are you getting the rigidity to do that depth of cut? Plus hats off to your feeds and speeds.. they must be spot on.
The real info is at 3:42. Still, it should have been in the description. Great results man. Subscribed.
Excelent, thanks for your tips, sooner i will build my own, your information really gonna help me.
Wow, awesome CNC mill! You have enough aluminum wool to make a sweater. 1 dislike at this point? Must be Sarah Connor wanting to stop all automated machines before they become sentient. Awesome video.
Thanks for sharing your awesome results!
Amazing result for this kind of router. Very god job there!
you can also use small tabs at the bottom to keep your part attached to the rest of the stock, and cut it later
FINISHING LOOKS NICE FOR SUCH KIND OF MACHINE !!!!
Woooooow ! Now I want to test it on my 3d printed cnc...
Same! Just finished my upgrade to Nema 23 too! :-D
That is seriously impressive!
Wait, this is REAL TIME??? I thought it was sped up!
Amazing video.🔥
What spindle are you using?
I like the tube wipers to keep the chips out of the bearings
Can you link the endmills you used? Aliexpress? I really need this ability. Excellent video!!
Also interested.
I have tried several different end mills from aliexpress and didn't noticed any difference. Just search for "single flute carbide end mill 6mm" and go with the cheapest one.
@@leonbrauns so single flute does that nice cutting and finish ? What's the feed and rpm ?
@@OperationAllOut man, just watch the video
@@AlanHerrigCreations ya got it bro, just commented early ..
Awesome video, good info. The only thing I'm really curious about now is what kind of projects you're making! :)
how did you get rid of spindle deflection? its almost like i printed mine with ninja flex instead of PLA.
It's Amazing what you Can Do with ! Respect !! I learn many things from your vidéo !! Thank you
Formidable deco for the presentation of the Christmastree!
for me the reason im looking at a mpcnc is I dont really have a reliable way to cut metal and id like the additional capabilities that a cnc offers for woodworking as im not artistic in anyway so using a computer and a machine to turn wood into a design is a amazing option for me
It does help that he is using a good dedicated router spindle from AMB-Elektrik.
Krass was du so raus knallst mit dem Teil! Echt beeindruckend. Sogar Tom hat ja direkt aufgegeben.
That's some very good mechanical engineering.
Damn bro, your machine is kicking so much ass. I'm amazed what you can do with a machine that has PLASTIC parts for some of the frame.
Where did you get the files and what spindle are you using? I’d love to be able to do this but not sure where to start
Great results! One question though. I remember an older video where you modified your MPCNC. Those modifications don't seem to be present here. Am I missing something or did you not end up keeping them for some reason?
Was curious about that too. He had the dual reverse belt setup.
I published an update on thingiverse as well as on the v1engineering forum about that: The glued belt started to curl up. Instead of fixing it I took the chance and switched to a single belt. As I didn't notice any difference, except that it's easier to set the right belt tenison, I am keeping it.
@@leonbrauns ah I see. Thanks man. Great vids btw! Keep it up!
Brauns CNC. Great work and great videos. However i can not find your posts on the V1 Engineering forums.
@@leonbrauns Hello, this looks very nice. I would like to build a cnc just like yours. Maybe can you add a link to the infos? Thank you, bye bye

What kind of "dremel" you are using in your cnc?
any recommendations for cheap endmills to cut plywood?
What software do you use to generate the g code?
What type of compressor are you using to clear the debris from the endmill?
thanks best vid so far on this topic!
I couldn’t find it mentioned in your build series, but what is the build size? Thanks!
Good job👍👍👍
Are you using a specific grade of aluminium?

How is this block of aluminium held in place?
What milling rotor did you use. Can you share the model and spec?
AMB FME 1050P
Can you do a video on how you did your set up in Fusion? I have been struggling with mine.
Great work, my compliments ! How do you release the part from the waste-board, since you use double side tape.
Thanks! Either with a spatula and some force or by heating the part.
You seem to use something beefier than the usual GT2 timing belts. Care to lose a few words about that, or a link if you described that somewhere else already?
Your setup seems to be exceptionally sturdy and stable. Any special tricks you might want to share? Thanks in advance!
There are some modifications to the original MPCNC like a different foot design or 9mm GT2 belts instead of 6mm. I guess using a high quality spindle also makes a huge difference.
Awesome work. Can you show how your control board is wired and mounted? 🙏
It's probably using high quality filament and stainless tube.
Amazing ! What are the dimensions of the CNC ?
Work area is roughly 600x300x50mm.
Didn't you have videos showing angle iron upgrades on your MPCNC?
Do you have a video on your air hose set up? If not can you please post that Info. Thanks.
стружку можно добавлять в эпоксидную смолу, для жесткости.
Или переплавить в заготовку.
Unreal!!!!!
The what? It seems you've never been in machine shop before xD
Welche Spindel nutzt du denn an deinem Modell ind hast du andere Modifikationen vorgenommen ausser double belt
Hi. Is that 6061 alloy?
Thanks
It's EN AW-5083.
I only do milling by hand have not learned any gcode, but this is bad ass
@sammy Thank you for the info
Could you tell us what feedrates, rpm, doc etc your using? This is really impressive
Watch the whole video ;).
Aus welchem Grund hast du dir Double belts wieder demontiert?

Etwa 600x300x60mm.
What your use to fixture aluminum plate in BED ?, congrats, nice jobs!
Isn't this more attributed to your Kress spindle?
The frame is probably the limiting factor. A more rigid machine could probably push that spindle much harder, but this is still very impressive.
Thank you for all the infos
Beautiful... what spindle it is?
