newbie machine owner..

[geoff f]

Hello all,

Thought it time to post here having been following for the last few months...

Having used friends' machines at various times over the last 10 years or so, due to one closing his business, another moving & putting machine in storage, lost touch with another, & so on.... thought I'd buy my own little toy... from China (deep intake of breath from many)... still sitting on the new table awaiting attention as work gets in the way...

cheers
Geoff

Hi Geoff, wellcome to the site. No deep intake of breath here - maybe some heavy breathing (I love all cnc machines).Ignore the work and start playing. Good luck. G.

What have you bought ?

Welcome to the forum Geoff, biggest problem with a lot of stuff coming from China is the insturction manuals & the lack of support but for someone like yourself who already has experience with the machines it won't be a problem.
Other thing is people buying cheaper machines & then complaining that they can't cut 12mm stainless with it.

This!

Without the 4th axis...

No desire to cut stainless lol, maybe aluminium but done my share of polishing so not too keen...

actually have no game plan...

Hi how much did you pay for this if you dont mind me asking Im after one myself cheers.....

Looks like the generic 6040 machine. Weak point on these is the controller but it's not hard to replace it with something a lot more durable.
The main cost is in the mechanical parts on these, not the electronics.

Price wise you should be looking around £1200

[geoff f]

err..no... this is 1320 x 600 = the shipping was $570!

Time will tell as to how durable it is, I spoke with another guy who bought the same, who said that it was great, couldn't buy the parts for the money & may upgrade bits in due course. Ignorance is bliss - so I went for it!

I like this have you got a link to the original add?

Hi Rick

Unfortunately not as it has expired on Ebay (bought last December) & seller has not listed since, but the blurb is:

This is a New cnc router

Factory direct sales;
Can be customized and wholesale;

CD files will help you complete the Set up;

connected to the computer;will be able to work;
Including installed the spindle and CNC controllers ;

and Pipes; 50w pump; cutter; parallel port cable; 4 clips;

Any quality problems; 3 months ; can return!!!!!!

production design your own 3D models and 3D works of art,

Can use it to carving PCB board,

The routers use precision linear bearings and alloy manufacturing,

Linear bearings, can be adjusted to ensure the elimination of the gap, precision fit,
high-precision linear Round rails, diameter 1-inch


The use of high-precision ball screw:diameter 16 mm;

Chassis sbr16 16mm with support track;, because of the support seat; high bearing capacity

Y-axis sbr16 16mm with support track;


The thickness of aluminum alloy is 0.46 inches and 0.8 inches , Extremely rugged
Highly rigid structure, the weight of 200 pounds, 100KG,

Aluminum alloy T-slot table,
Can help you cut and fixed,
Manufacture than wood table has a huge advantage,

Router is the length of 62 inches, width is 33 inches, 155cm 84cm

Two stepper motors 56CM * 56Cm * 72cm; torque 1.7N.M
Chassis: stepper motor 86CM * 86Cm * 86cm; torque 4.2 the NM
The dimensions do not include the length of the shaft;

30v 3A CNC drive , Optical isolation, the maximum 1 / 16 micro-step

400w 30v Switching Power Supply

Can be used in all countries of the world, power is the input voltage 110v --- 240v AC

1.5kw Water cooling / air cooling Motorized Spindle ,Height Precision

ER11 ,24000RPM ,

400hz Variable-frequency Drive,

50W water cooling pump,

4 axis installed drivers and chuck and Precision Harmonic reducer,80mm chuck;

Harmonic reducer is no gap and hysteresis
Is a high-end machines;

Different Those Use the cheap products of the gears and timing belts;

If you need a 4-axis; increase costs $ 300;
I modify the order
