Torchmate Introduces Routermate CNC Router Torchmate has unveiled the Routermate CNC router system, available in sizes from a 2ft x 4ft cutting surface to a 10ft x 40ft cutting surface. Torchmate's research and development team examined the pre-existing design and fabrication of the CNC router pinpointing vulnerable construction points and correcting them in their structural plan. To maintain rigidity, the Z-axis bearings are located at the bottom of the axis plate, and do not move away from the material as the Z-axis moves the travelling distance of 8.5in. The standard version of the Routermate is equipped with stepper motors. Servos are available as an option. All drive systems are completely gear driven, with the exception of the Z-axis that is a recirculating ball-screw drive. The Y and Z axes have 24 bearings each for linear rigidity, and the X-axis runs on 16 cam follower type bearings. These CNC router tables are available as a complete bolt-together kit, or fully assemb...
