2022 New CNC Machine For Wood And Acrylic

CNC machine for wood and acrylic Introduction：

CNC machine for wood and acrylic, as the name implies, is applied to advertising engraving machine, and the advertising industry also has a large engraving machine, small engraving machine, carving machine is generally refers to 6090 or 1212, carving machine, mainly used for double color plate lettering, or sign logo and other small wide materials processing, and CNC Acrylic Cutter was specifically 1325 types of engraving machine,That is the most common model on the market, this is mainly because the plate on the market are 1 m 22 x 2 m 44 size, and it is mainly used for PVC cutting, billboard production, light box, mini words and luminous words production.

Choosing an CNC Acrylic Cutter

With hundreds of acrylic variations including different sizes, shapes, and colors, the first step to creating an acrylic piece is to choose which type you want to work with.

We recommend cast acrylic instead of extruded acrylic because it’s much cleaner to cut through. Extruded acrylic can get gummy during the cutting process.

Clear acrylic is lightweight, shatter-proof, and can be used to create unique pieces of art. If you’ve heard of Plexiglass or Lucite, then you know exactly what we are talking about.

Choosing the Right Bit

One of the most important decisions you will make when cutting acrylic on a CNC router is choosing the correct bit. This step is entirely dependent on what you are hoping to achieve.

A 1/4-inch solid carbide O-flute is a great choice for cutting because it has an up-score that will pull out the chips as the cutting occurs. It prevents plastic chips from building up inside the curve of the cut.

If you want to engrave acrylic, a 60° engraving bit is perfect for V-carving. It has a flat-edge tip that leaves you with a better edge quality than other bits.

V-Carve Pro Software

V-Carve Pro is the perfect software for cutting acrylic because it allows for 2D, 2.5D, and 3D engraving. It comes with everything you need to design whatever is inside your imagination.

How to Cut Acrylic on a CNC Router

Drawing and editing tools allow you to come up with original designs or customize ready-made templates. The numerous toolpath options enable you to customize the settings for drilling, auto-inlays, profiling pocketing, prism carving, fluting, texturing, V-Carving, and so much more.

Features of Acrylic CNC Cutting Machine:

Engraving, drilling, cutting, leading edge, milling and so on, 12 tools, the tool change process is uninterrupted and automated.

Taiwan Baoyuan intelligent control system, the control interface design is humanized, fool-like operation, the operator can be employed through simple training.

No skilled workers are needed. The machine moves quickly and quickly, helping you achieve a leap in productivity.

This machine adopts HQD 9KW power air-cooled spindle, full servo drive system, original electrical components and other components, and the performance is stable.

The table top is a vacuum adsorption table, which can strongly adsorb materials of different areas. The small plates are processed without displacement, the processing surface is smooth, and the plate size is accurate.

Electric oil filling, automatic oiling according to time setting, ensuring lubrication of the slider screw guide rail and prolonging service life.

Taiwan high-precision square linear guide, high precision, long service life, large contact surface, strong load carrying capacity, and the use of vertical rail technology can better ensure the stability of operation.

Reinforced thickened heavy gantry, steel plate processed by precision cutting and planer, plus welding, equivalent to secondary tempering treatment, ensuring long-lasting gantry and no deformation.

The whole cast iron side plate is treated with high temperature tempering to prevent the side plate deformation from affecting the Y axis travel accuracy.

Cutting Acrylic on a CNC Machine

Now that you've chosen your material, bit, and design, it’s time to get started with the cutting process.

Step #1 - Set the feed-rate according to the size of your bit. The recommended feed-rate for cutting acrylic is generally between 75-300 IPM. Larger bits work well with higher feed-rates, and smaller bits require a lower feed-rate.

Step #2 - Set the RPM. We recommend that you use at least 18,000 RPM to optimize the spindle’s ability to cut through acrylic without melting it.

Step #3 - Set the cutting depth. In general, we recommend that the cutting depth be about 1/2 of the diameter of the bit. This will prevent the bit from breaking.

Step #4 - Make sure that you choose to begin cutting with a ramp. You can choose this option inside the V-Carve Pro software. Going into the acrylic with ramping instead of plunging in will prevent distortion.

Step #5 - Secure the acrylic material to the CNC router table.

Step #6 - Run the CNC router to cut out the acrylic design you want.
