CNC router table, group B

Computer Numeric Control (CNC) is a technology that has revolutionized the manufacturing industry.The first numeric control (NC) machines were developed in the 1940s and 1950s and used hole punchedtape to tell the motors controlling the machine where to go. In the late 1950s and 1960s, computers pairedwith CAD/CAM software were added to the process to create the CNC we know today. [CJ1] Using codegenerated from CAD and CAM software, manufacturing machines can create precise parts in a relativelyshort time.With the growing popularity of multi-purpose manufacturing machines, NAU has tasked the CNCCapstone Team with designing a space saving CNC Table that can be used with a multitude of tools. Thegoal of this year’s project is to design and build a CNC routing table that can be retrofitted as a 3Dprinter, laser cutter or even a water jet by future capstone teams. The main focus for this year will be oncreating a sturdy design with small tolerances to provide a solid basis for the future capstone teams.
