CNC Router Table

YMS has a wonderful tool called a ShopBot! It is a 4 X 8 computer controlled router table that you can make all kinds of wonderful things with. There is however a steep learning curve and the machine is expensive to operate and maintain.  Users are required to take a certification class, or work with a certified member to use this tool.

  • Spindle Speed – rotational speed of the cutting tool in revolutions per min
  • Feed Rate – Surface speed at the center of the rotating tool
  • Step down – the distance in the z direction per pass that a cutting tool is plunged into the material
  • Step over – the maximum distance in the x/y direction that a cutting tool will engage with uncut material
