2-axis MicroCNC Lathe CN2668

The 2-axis MicroCNC lathe allows students to understand how G codes are used to control a CNC lathe. The
two stepper motors and DC motor connect to our CNC system controller hardware to allow full control of the AUTOMATICS
lathe using the G code file host software. Students can use the hardware and lathe to see how each G code
command affects the lathe operation and they can create complex work pieces from wax cylinders.
AUTOMATICS
This kit is stored in our standard plastic storage tray and can be assembled in minutes.

Our MicroCNC range of machines are low voltage, easy to store and cost-effective, SMART FACTORY
allowing students to work in small groups to prototype their designs and learn key
machining concepts. The robust range is a great introduction to manufacturing
SMART FACTORY
engineering principles. The MicroCNC system controller and base plate allows the
user to control our machines using a variety of software packages. After creating
designs using CAD software, including Solidworks, the user converts their design into
G code. The machine components are secured to the base plate quickly and easily, to ROBOT ARM
provide a solid and tidy machine which can easily be put away for storage.
The complete MicroCNC set enables users to easily create any one of the three
ROBOT ARM
machines in our range, meaning teaching of manufacturing engineering technologies
is made easier than ever. PROCESS CONTROL
