Nested Based CNC Router
MultiCam announced its new 3000 Series nestedbased
CNC router. The machine features a heavy,
tubular steel welded frame, 25 mm linear bearings and
custom engineered steel castings supporting the gantry.
Table sizes are available up to 60” x 240”. An 11 hp automatic
tool change and 100% duty-cycle spindle is standard
along with an optional 4-spindle, 32mm drill bank. All
3000 series machines feature a high-speed, simultaneous,
3-axis motion control system
and MultiCam’s easy-to-
use, hand-held operator
interface.
They are fully
compatible
with any
of the popular
cabinet software
packages.
Automatic Dull Tool Detection
MultiCam also introduced Automatic Dull Tool Detection
capabilities to its line of routers. This one-of-a-kind
innovation allows the user to optimize tool life and take the
guesswork out of when it’s time to change a dull cutting tool.
After setting the normal current draw at the time a new
tool is calibrated, the user can then set a high current
limit. Once the high current limit has been reached and
maintained for a continuous period of time, the machine
will pause and prompt the user to change the tool.
If the user wishes to complete the job before changing the
tool, they can opt to adjust the maximum current draw
level, adjust the time or disable the feature altogether.
However, if the user chooses to take immediate action and
change the tool before completion of a job, they do not need
to worry that their work up to that point has to be scrapped
and started again from scratch. After changing tools and
recalibrating, the user can “Prox Restart” the job. When
using this feature, the machine can easily maneuver back to
the point where the job was paused and resume working.
