"CNC" "Circuit" "Mill"
- CNC (Computer Numerical Control) - control the machine with computer programs!
- Circuit - deals with electronics!
- Mill - rotate and move tool bits to remove material from a workpiece!
Example CNC Circuit Mills
- DIYLILCNC
- Snaplock
- Mantis Machine 9
- ProtoMat H100
How Does It Work?
- Movement of the milling bit usually is limited to 3 axes.
Product Backlog
- Vacuum Cleaning System to remove and collect hazardous debris
