CNC for amateurs, build your own machine!

          Cutting as a manufacturing technique is the basis of production capacity in mechanical engineering. Numerically controlled machines give a lot of rapid, reproducible and fully controlled manufacturing. In commercial professional machines are used, but even in a home environment, it is possible to realize computer-supported production process. To get to know about and understand the aspects associated with the CNC should take up the challenge of building your own machine.
          Going through the construction process, from initial concept selection to specific projects and their implementation can gather a lot of knowledge of CNC, with having fun.
          
          My project:

           And its implementation:

          Browsing on the market offers plotters can meet a large discrepancy rates between devices with similar geometrical parameters. This is due to differences in the components used. Selected elements that determine the price, such as linear guides, screws or drive motors provide the basis for ensuring technological capabilities. Knowing the needs arising from the planned destination machine we are able to appropriately chosen components. In the next post I will present a comparison of facilitating the choice of components.
