Building Your Own CNC Router/milling Machine: Already when I was little I was thinking of making a machine which could make things! A machine which would give me the opportunity to create products for in and around the house. Years later I stumbled on the words 'Computer Numerical Control' or...
1. It all started with a proper design, in my case a few sketches to get a good feeling for the dimensions and shape. Quickly after the sketching p...2. The frame provides the machine a rigid basis, not only to place it in your workshop but also for working on. To the frame the gantry will be mou...3. The gantry is the bridge between the x-axis guiderails and supports your milling motor above the workpiece. The higher you make it, the thicker...4. The last movement is what I call the Stepermotorhousing for the z-axis (plus the z-axis itself of course). It is constructed out of a frontplate...5. Since your endmills need to move in 3 directions, the machine guides them with its guide rails. The guide rails provides the machine its rigidit...6. The spindles translate the rotational movement from the stepper motors into a linear movement. When building your machine, you can choose betwee...7. The work surface is the place you will clamp your pieces of material on. On a lot of professional machine a T-slotted bed is used, giving you th...8. The main components in the electrical system are:-Stepper motors-Stepper drivers-Powersupply (or 2)-Breakoutboard-Computer-And last but not leas...9. Since we want to remove material from the piece we clamp to the work surface, we need something that drives the cutting bits; i.e. the endmills....10. In the topic CNC software I'll discuss not only the program me that controls the machine, but also the software which produces code the machine...
