Workshop & Noise Help

[John S]

Two main areas of noise on a CNC router is the spindle and the actual cutting.
Spindle can be helped by using the high speed spindles that many fit here, usually the water cooled versions. A router is really a no no based on noise.

Cutting noises, tool into the material are harder to control and often louder than a spindle anyway.
Work clamping, where the machine is sited can al lay a big part in how much noise is generated.
