The gantry moves on 5/8” diameter precision ball screws in both “X” and “Y” movements by very good quality stepper motors.This model of our Professor CNC comes without a router spindle for those who already have a Bosch, Dewalt or Porter Cable router they wish to use. The adjustable gantry is a full ¾” thick machined aluminum frame (including the support arms as well as the cross members) which rides on very accurate THK linear guide ways. Under the cast frame are four heavy duty 3” diameter adjustable feet to make sure of a solid support on the work bench or for mounting to the optional welded steel stand. The black anodized aluminum table is then mounted to the cast iron frame for an excellent working surface with plenty of options for the use of hold down jigs. All of our Professor machines start with the foundation of a very heavy duty cast iron frame. The Professor 2.2 is our base machine ideal for hobby and educational users. The Professor Series of CNC benchtop routers are the most robust and accurate CNC available today. Not just pretty looks…and they are very pretty….but better performance, quality, motors, components and features than any competitive machine.
The “Professor” series of CNC routers are designed by CWI Woodworking Technologies to be the “best in class” machines available today.
