Workshop - Introduction to 3-Axis CNC Machining

In this six-hour workshop you will learn how to use the Routermax 1325 CNC milling machine at MotionLab.Berlin. This machine allows you to prototype 2D-3D parts through subtracting material by planing and milling parts of it. By the end of the session, you will have milled a series of parts from MDF that can be assembled.

Learning outcome

During the workshop you will learn how to:

• Create a CNC-G-Code with Estlcam, and transfer it to the CNC machine

• Use the control software MACH 3

• Operate the Routermax 1325 CNC machine safely

By the end of the session, you will have the opportunity to present a project of your own to the instructor and review the plan you have for milling it.

Completing this workshop, with the corresponding membership, will grant you the possibility to use the CNC milling machine at MotionLab.Berlin.
