Denford compact CNC routers, available from Concentric Asia Pacific , are fast, compact, lightweight, quiet and are on display at National Manufacturing Week 2009. With national launch Denford compact 3-axis CNC routers will be exhibited to industry for the first time having built up a solid reputation in Australian schools, TAFEs and universities over the past five years.
Denford routers are the preferred manufacturing centre for the F1 in schools technology challenge, a high school competition created by not-for-profit organisation Re-Engineering Australia Foundation involving more than 35,000 students across the nation. Students as young as 13 are designing futuristic racers in CATIA then machining them in Denford routers.
Made in England, the Denford routers are quiet, fast and classroom-friendly which makes them suitable for universities, TAFEs, schools and training centres. At the same time they are suitable for industry. Their high performance motors are capable of continuous machining in a range of materials for jobs like prototyping of finished products, moulds, low volume production runs leaving larger CNC machines for more complex parts or bigger production runs.
The range Denford compact CNC routers include:
COMPACT 1000/1000 PRO, a compact 3 axis CNC Router with totally enclosed interlocking guard, is suitable for cutting a range of resistant materials such as hard and soft wood, plastic, modeling foam, acrylic, PCB's and prototyping materials. In addition, the Compact 1000 Pro can cut non-ferrous metals.
2600/2600 PRO, a large capacity 3 axis CNC Router with totally enclosed interlocking guard, suitable, is suitable for cutting a range of resistant materials such as hard and soft wood, plastic, modelling foam, acrylic, PCB's and prototyping materials. In addition, the 2600 Pro can cut non-ferrous metals.
PCB manufacturer/engraver, an easy to use 3 axis CNC PCB and engraving machine with totally-enclosed guarding. The PCB engraver is supplied with operating software incorporating Gerber and DXF import facilities suitable for cutting and engraving a range of resistant materials, including copper board, plastic and acrylic.
Turn 270 CNC Lathe, a compact 2 axis CNC Lathe with totally enclosed high-visibility interlocking guard. Programmable spindle speeds and feedrates make the Turn 270 suitable for cutting a range of resistant materials such as wax, plastic, acrylic, free cutting alloys, aluminium and steel.
VMC 1300 CNC milling machine, a 3 axis CNC milling machine available either floor standing or for bench mounting, with totally enclosed high visibility interlocking guard. Programmable spindle speeds and feedrates make the VMC 1300 suitable for cutting a range of resistant materials such as wax, plastic, acrylic, free cutting alloys, aluminium and steel.
