NARROW WORKSHOP ENTRANCE?  NOT A PROBLEM FOR FABERTEC

We strive to accommodate our clients, though sometimes the situation may not be ideal.

 For the Fabertec M1 and M2 2030 CNC center routers:

  • After removing the gantry, the minimum dimensions required for the table are 232 cm in width and 225 cm in height.
  • With the gantry assembled, the minimum required dimensions are 280 cm in width and 225 cm in height, without the servo motors and covers on those two models.

An additional charge will apply, as the machines from Fabertec HQ arrive fully tested and assembled. Therefore, reassembly is required on-site, often necessitating the deployment of additional engineers.

Interested? Check the short clip showing the preparation and final installation.

Here’s a recent experience we had with one of our clients.

We recently had a client in Bradford who showed an interest in our M2 2030 CNC centre router machine. However, the main challenge we had was the narrow passage to their workshop, which made it hard to get the machine inside. So, the Fabertec team designed and welded 2 metal vertical frames; one for the bed and another one for the gantry to be able to move parts safely through a narrow entrance to the Client's workshop. Led by Charles, the team of Fabertec engineers safely moved the disassembled CNC into its final resting place. The rest of the day was well spent on assembly and the following day M2 2030 was fully assembled and ready for training. After a few hours, the team at Carlise was cutting their designs fully confident in drawing and creating G-Code files. With Fabertec we design machines with the Client in mind - there is no need for PHD or Engineering degree to use our cnc's.

Here at FABERTEC, we are not shy from the challenge and we are making sure you have the means to cut quickly, safely, and accurately.

Some of the important features of the M1 CNC Centre Router

Quick and efficient work by holding your work piece/board in place by vacuum suction. No need to clamp boards in place saving a lot of operator time. The vacuum pumps supplied by us are always air cooled. ​The cheapest ones are water cooled and operator has to remember to keep the tank full, use antifreezers in winter, make sure no liquid is left in system during winter if antifreeze not used.
Servo motors are best motors available for the CNC (and other) machines. ​A great number of CNC machines are supplied only with stepper or hybrid servo motors. The main difference between SERVOs and other motors is that they have a feedback loop to driver. It means that driver always knows the “position” of the servo motor, if it missed any routing step, if there is too much tension on the motor etc. ​That allows driver to counteract or inform of any challenges during the processing.
ALWAYS AIR COOLED (Except if very high kW used by Italian HSD) HQD PRODUCTS ARE BASED ON FAMOUS ITALIAN MANUFACTURER HSD One of the best spindles used around the world. Very efficient, quiet and what most important very affordable.
The lubrication oil for all guides/runners is located in automatic pump tank. After a set amount of minutes it will lubricate all guides and runners. By working with machines with manual lubrication we know it was a huge waste of time ​of the operator hence this option was added ​as standard.
Very intuitive, simple to learn controller. Literally 2 hours training and you can start nesting/drilling/engraving etc – easy as it goes. More physical buttons available than in G2 model which will allow you to quickly ​access operations.
They will slow down and then shut down SERVOS close to the end of the axis. Situations happen when operator is moving the gantry too quick by controller and of course machine will follow the instruction. Without those sensors the gantry will hit end buffers and stop with the errors which create a strain on the structure, motors, guide. SENSORS allows machine to KNOW that it is at the end of axis and will shut down MOTORS preventing damage. This is almost not present in cheaper, budget machines from suppliers who never go to Chinese Factory to supervise production, add improvements and sign off shipments.
Designed for 3000kg of dynamic load on gantry – the whole CNC weights 1700kg where gantry 550kg so do not worry about any vibrations, movements or loss of squareness on your cnc.
Pneumatically operated bars and the 2 ends of the table to quickly ​lay down the boards exactly at the X=0 Y=0 position. Never again worry about misaligned board down the table. Also very important feature to have if you planning to do double sided operations where your datum point has to be dead on correct.
You never know what you will use your cnc for. That's why as a standard we are welding our gantry to allow you 300mm of processing space. That means in simple terms that using long cutting tools you can do your tenons and cut throughs in even 120-130mm thick materials. Thick timber, glulam beams, glued boxes, thick oak tables and others will be walk in the park on our M1 machines.
Taken from our more professional machines. Over 800kg more weight compared to the entry M0 model. Much more stable, less vibrations, allows for positioning bolts. All fully welded with 6mm continuous weld, fully destressed in industrial ovens ready to milled for 0.01mm accuracy. All fixing surfaces are milled by 100ton huge industrial CNC machines to make sure every fixing surface is perfectly aligned, square and true.
With every FABERTEC M1 machine you getting our 5 star warranty service. For small issues a quick phonecall or whatsapp message where we solving 99% of problems in no time. For more problematic situations our team of UK based engineers is just 24-72h away from you with whole 2000sqf unit of spare parts just waiting for situation like that. We believe in stocking every possible part just in case repair is needed. 98% of those parts sadly gathering dust for 4-5 years as our FABERTEC machines simply don't break that easily. Still we are here for you to keep your operations running with minimal downtime.
We all know it's difficult to invest at the beginning in all equipment needed when you opening a new workshop or even upgrading existing to your new CNC operations. That's why with every M1 and M2 CNC we supply you with powerful double bag dust extractor to get you running from day one. It may not be fully packed £8k expensive one but it will do it's job and what most important - IT'S FREE.
All of our M1 machines are upgradable to ATC - Automatic Tool Changer. Multiple tools available at any given moment will make your work a walk in the park. Even if it may cost a little bit more from single tool version the amount of time you will save by using multiple tools on one board will pay off in literally few months. As always we supply all the chucks, collets the machine is designed for as free of charge.
The famous CAD/CAM Vcarve Pro software supplied free of charge with every M1 machine. This software (based in Milton Keynes) will allow you to do all standard joinery, signage, prototyping, 3D carving etc operations in no time. As it's designed with fabricators in mind the wording and typical approach to all tasks is really easy to comprehend. We never had operators who couldn't do simple operations after just 1-3h of training. Also there is a ton of instructions and videos to get you into cnc designing and cutting.
