NextFab Use CNC Wood Router

NextFab has been my prototyping studio for the bamboo Fluid Ribbon Chair. I needed a place to laminate bamboo tensile specimens, CNC wood router the specimens, and the form mold for the chair. Then had to laminate the bamboo, vacuum bag and press the chair into the mold, heat cure it, and cut/finish the shell into the Fluid Ribbon Chair shape. I also needed 6’x7’ vinyl banners for the booth at ICFF (International Contemporary Furniture Fair in New York, this pas May). All of that was done at NextFab. It was one month of planning and logistics, then two long days of execution that produced the bamboo fluid ribbon chair the night before the show.

Everyone at NextFab was so supportive and excited about the project. Evan Malone was particularly accommodating when I had critical parts of the process and needed access to equipment at specific times.

Antique Designer Use CNC Wood Router

With stores in Los Angles and Brooklyn, as well as its home base in Cleveland, Ohio, Jason Wein’s stark, minimalist designs are a favorite of Hollywood celebs. In High Point, the Cleveland Art space will feature lighting, shelves and tables built from industrial components and fasteners that Wein culls from defunct factories located throughout New England and America’s rust belt.

“Everything is American-made using recycled and repurposed materials, right down to the fasteners, because I think it’s the right thing to do,” Wein says. “A lot of the machines that we buy from New England are from the 1700s, before electricity, and have three or four lifetimes of workers behind them. Today, with CNC wood router and lasers, one man can operate 100 machines and the jobs have been outsourced overseas. It’s a different age and time, and we’ll never see this history again.”

Beth Lewis too is passionate about giving new life to old pieces, “taking something that someone has discarded as trash and turning it into something that someone else would love to have in their home, simply by visually displaying it in a way that’s pleasing,” she says.

A veteran merchant who opened her first retail shop at the tender age of 19, Lewis’ retail store in Marshville, N.C., about 35 miles East of Charlotte, is a mecca for fans of her blog and singular look, a combination of rustic farmhouse, old architectural pieces and industrial influences brought together by a neutral color palette. The Old Time Marketplace store is housed in a building built in 1910, which movie buffs will recognize as the setting for the general store in the Oscar-winning film, “The Color Purple.”

Solution for Uneven Stone Engraving By CNC Router

Solution for Uneven Stone Engraving By CNC Router
Many cnc router users encounter this problem when engrave stone by cnc router. For tomb stone or other stone plate, why some position just touched by cnc router cutter, well some positions on stone are deeper engraved by cnc rotuer? This is related with the cnc router finding a blancing point on stone.
Before dispatching cnc wood router, manufacturers of cnc router will make working table even by cnc router milling cutter,so this is not the problem of cnc router table. Well, tomb stone or other stone must not so even, so if we make tool setting at left point, which is the highest point. This will cause some other position may can not be engraved. If this point is the lowest one, then may other position wil be keeper.
For avoding this problem, we suggest setting processing origin xy and z seperately. Still set xy at left down point of material, well, make z at the center of material, in this way, the whole engraving depth may is similar. If there is a big difference for different position material thickness, OMNI suggest make cnc router tool path to upper down two parts or upper, middle and down three parts. Or you use cnc router to measure the four edge point of material, according to X axis value to see which position is high, and which position is lower, then make some stuff under the material to keep the whole material even at most.

Basic Solution for CNC Wood Router Problem

Basic Solution for CNC Wood Router Problem

Problem of CNC Wood Router are mainly as following:
1. One axis of cnc wood router does not move. Now check the driver for this axis if work normal.

Stone CNC Router Set Multi-Layer Engraving

How to set multi-layer in cnc stone router software? Stone is a kind of hard material, so when we set tool-down size, should notice make multi-layer while processing thick relief sculpture. 
Firstly, in the software, we create and edit the file, set the relief sculpture size and depth. Here depth means relief sculpture depth. After setting, pre-view the relief sculpture with 3D view. Then set tool path, choose relief sculpture, then choose cutter, please notice that there is under cutting distance, this value is the size of cutting down size every time. This value is setted according to material hardness and cutter quality. Choose the item of multi z layer milling. At last Z tool path, input the total depth of relief sculpture. Then choose tool path simulation to see who tool path works. Then input the tool path to cnc stone router control system to start processing.

CNC Wood Router Spindle Purchasing & Maintenance

Tips for cnc wood router spindle purchasing and maintenance.

Now, for cnc wood router, usually we use brushless spindle motor. So we need to consider the following issues when we choose.

1. Ask the supplier if adopting high precision bearing. If it is not with high precision bearing, after ong time high speed rotating, the life time of spindle motor will be affected. OMNI use high precision bearing on cnc wood router spindle whatever watercooling or aircooling spindle.

2 . Try to see when the cnc wood router spindle rotate at different high speed, if its sound is harmony.

3. If you prefer higher working effficiency, such as process wood etc, suggest you use spindle over 3kw.

4. CNC wood router spindle is easily get rusted if not under good maitenance situation. Light rust will not affect the suing, well, if you do not handle it for rather long time, then it will affect the cnc wood router spindle life time. How to move off rust? Two ways. One is to use tool to clean it. The other way is to use WD-40 sray on the spinlde, then use cloth to clean it after half an hour. This is a good solution.

What Can We Do If CNC Wood Router Cutter Stick Material Powder?

What can we do if cnc wood router cutte stick material powder in the processing?

Usually, there are two kinds of  cutter sticking situation:

1. Material powder melted on cutter.

Material powder melted on cutter, such appearance mainly occured when process non-metal material. The main reason is the cutting head cause material powder melted. Solutions are :

1) Using more sharp cnc wood router cutter;

2) Slow down spindle rotating speed. Slowing down spindle rotating speed could slow down the cutting speed, in this way, could reduce heat created, could avoid material melting;

3) Speed up feeding speed. Feeding speed get higher, then the time that cutter staying at one position is less, then the heat receiving for unit area will get less, avoidng material melt.

2. Material powder did not melted on cutter.

This problem mainly happened when process metal material. Reason is lower processing speed, more heat released. Solutions are :

1) Improve cooling way. Change the position of cooling liquid out-way, get the cooling liquid spray out at the cuttig position.

2) Use more sharp cutter. The cutter more sharper, the head more reduced.

3) Adjust cnc wood router spindle speed, speed up it.

4) Slow down feeding speed.
