Any recommendations for a cnc?

[SeattlePH]

Hey all looking at getting a large format 4' x 8' or 5' x 10' cnc router. I have looked at the Laguna Swift, ShopBot PRSalpha and Camaster Cobra CR-505. Main requirements are

cutting and creasing operations. From routing wood, plastics, acrylic and aluminum(ACM) to cutting foam board, vinyl, coroplast, styrene and anything else that requires a knife

. Mainly

sign and digital print

etc. I was looking at a laser cutter but that really has its limitations for some of the stuff I want to do. Budget is in the $15k-30k range. Any recommendation? Thanks!

Always consider used for a business. This does require careful inspection of the machine in question but the potential savings are huge. The biggest issue with used is an outdated controller.

In any event reccomending new is very difficult because there are so many manufactures, models and options.

Hello, SeattlePH,

To cut the wood, plastics, acrylic, aluminum(ACM) , foam board, vinyl and so on. The cnc router can meet your needs. But I think you can consider about the Chinese machines. There are many machines in US imported from China.
According to your budget, it is enough to import a high quality machine.
