MultiCam’s 3000 Series CNC routers have standard features associated with more expensive machines. The all-steel, moving-gantry design allows machining of large parts while maintaining a small, space-saving footprint. The ATC (Automatic Tool Change) option gives users exceptional flexibility. Designed for a wide range of medium-duty panel processing applications, the machines are ideal for companies looking for both value and high-performance in a CNC router.

Other standard features include 25mm linear ball bearing profile rails for maximum stiffness, user-friendly operator interface, high-speed three-axis motion control, 12 MB memory with unlimited file size transfer capabilities, two-phase digital brushless, synchronous electric motors or Eclipse brushless, optional AC servo system and automatic tool calibration.
