When it comes to machining metals, torque is king. Higher torque means that larger chips can be peeled from the workpiece with each rotation of the cutting tool. More chips peeled per hour equals more money in your pocket. Thankfully the 3.4 horsepower AC spindle motor provides incredible torque throughout the entire 0-8000 RPM range. MR-1 has the power and rigidity to run large diameter cutters such as facemills, fly cutters, boring bars, and drills up to ½”.

We all know that 3D printing is great. But if you want to make more than one sample, 3D printing makes little sense when time is money. If you want to make a lot of plastic parts quickly, you need to be looking at plastic casting or injection molding. And to make molds? You guessed it, 3D surfacing is needed. It involves the use of a ball end mill to produce accurate and smooth 3d surfaces.

Boasting spindle deflections less than 40 millionths per pound of cutting force, MR-1 is more rigid than any other machine in its class. This stiffness is what allows MR-1 to cut nearly any material between plastic and stainless steel. We believe CNC machines should be made out of steel and iron, not aluminum. That's why the entire structure of the machine is made out of thick steel plate while the carriages are made out of heavy duty cast iron for incredible stiffness an vibration damping. Tipping the scales at over 700 pounds, MR-1 is a real machine that's ready for hard work.
