Sample CNC Budget
Setting up a safe and effective CNC lab goes beyond simply purchasing CNC machines. In addition to the CNC machines are the peripheral equipment (controllers, cables, etc), safety equipment (machine and electronics enclosures, circuitry) and driving computers. On this page, we briefly present approximate prices, but will continue to update the page to provide insight into the options available. The table below shows the comparative cost for a fully setup desktop CNC machine, including an enclosure and other safety peripherals, but not including a computer to drive the CNC machine.
