Description
SQL 6040 Squirrel CNC Router Engraver
Model Number: SQL-6040-3BA
Improve productivity of your business with a CNC router. Squirrel series routers are capable of cutting a variety of hard materials, including wood, composites, aluminum, steel, plastics and foams, giving you highly precise results.
Squirrel series routers' design is centered on creating a high quality versatile machine that packs the functionality of larger industrial grade routers into smaller and more affordable package. Design innovation, careful component selection, classic American approach to the manufacturing process are the key ingredients that make our CNC Routers more reliable, precise and functional compared to similar machines on the market. Squirrel SQC31 CNC router controller is designed and built in the USA, so you know you get the high-quality and durable routers that consistently perform exactly the way you need.
All Squirrel routers are powered by Centroid CNC12 easy-to-use software, a scaled down version of the software that is used to control larger industrial machines. This time-tested and highly regarded software is key to making Squirrel routers easy to learn and simple to use. Start cutting with extreme precision now!
Squirrel series routers are intended for STEM education programs, industrial training and hobbyist markets.
