5-Axis CNC Router

The Model 90 is an all new 5-axis CNC router from Thermwood. It targets high speed trimming of three-dimensional parts. Cycle times for the Model 90 are dramatically faster, on some parts twice as fast with its advanced drive, lighter, stiffer structure and Impact Resistant Head. The new patented Impact Resistant Head is lighter, stiffer and yet reduces or eliminates the need to realign the head after an accidental crash, something that is common during programming and set-up.

The Model 90 has a larger envelope that allows full horizontal table coverage side to side and front to back. Mechanical structures were designed using finite element analysis, a sophisticated CAD technology that scrutinizes strength, stiffness, deformation and dynamics of the machine structure. This is used to increase its strength, stiffness and ultimately performance. All weldments are stress relieved to further increase strength, stiffness and provide long term stability and each machine is laser calibrated to assure accuracy.

The Model 90 represents a new generation of trimming machine, offering high-speed motions, a large envelope, resistance to common set-up problems and alignments capable of running CAD generated programs accurately.
