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.

Choosing the Right Bit

1、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.

2、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.

3、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.
