CNC machining
At our FabLab we have two CNC machines (yes, two).
The first is our big, ‘real’ CNC: an Ooznest WorkBee with a workspace of about 124 by 124 cm and a maximum Z-height of 38 to 40 mm. We built it from a kit, put a solid enclosure around it (thank you, Tim Daalderop) and added a range of safety features. It is now fully up and running.
Want to use the big CNC? Get in touch via info@fablabwag.nl. You’ll need a dedicated training first. Designs can be made with any software, but need to be converted in VCarve Pro (our preference) or Fusion360 to generate proper G-code for the CNC. The FabLab has a special makerspace license for VCarve Pro, which registered members can use for free.
Our second CNC, our ‘baby’, is a Genmitsu Sainsmart 3018. We got it as a present from Arjen de Jong, a local maker, and are really happy with it.
