PCNC 1100 Series 3 with accessories
- Floor Footprint 61" x 53" x 78"
- Table Size 34” x 9.5”
- Machine Travel 18” x 9.5” x 16.25”
- 5140RPM 1.5Hp spindle
- 220V 20A, 3 phase power
Status
No scheduled authorizations yet. Fully functional, wired for power, and operable. Danger committee and volunteers have attended and others will be attending training sessions.
Prerequisites to Authorization
Tier 1 Cold Metals Authorization (Johnson Saw, DoAll Bandsaw Saw, Drill Press)
For basic cutting and drilling of stock.
Shopbot PRS CNC router or ShapeOko2 CNC Router
2D CNC machines that will familiarize you to using CNC and other necessary concepts such as feeds and speeds, drill choice, etc.
Allows you to square off your material for the Tormach as well as learn basic, manual milling operations. More practice with feeds and speeds and 3-dimensional drilling operations.
It is also highly encouraged that you familiarize yourself with CAD/CAM methodology, and more specifically with Fusion 360 as that is the software we will be teaching and authorizing with. It is currently free for hobbyists and startups and can be downloaded [here|https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/free-trial].
Authorization
As of 07/14/18, authorization protocol is still being created and no sessions are currently scheduled.
There will be an online Canvas course component as well as hands-on machine training for the Tormach covering the basics of running a successful job. More specific information on this course will be available by the end of the month.
