CNC routing is perfect for cutting a wide variety of composites, acrylics, and wood.
Our CNC routers are able to achieve sharp edges and tight tolerances on materials that would be otherwise affected by the heat of a laser. Our online CNC router cutting service will ensure your parts are cut to spec every time.
The CNC router cuts at an accuracy of +/-0.005” or better in composites, plastics, and wood products.
When you upload your design to SendCutSend, we’ll pick between our CO2 laser, fiber laser, waterjet cutter, and CNC router to assure your parts are cut on the best machine at the most affordable price.
The CNC router is our go-to cutting machine for a variety of materials from MDF, ABS, ACM, HDPE, UHMW and Polycarbonate. Reference our material thickness max/min chart for a full list of our in-stock material thicknesses.
Before uploading your design to our website, check out our general maximum and minimum limitations for all of our materials, and the maximum and minimum material limitations for post processing (bending, countersinking, tapping, and deburring).
When a CNC router cuts through a piece of material, the router’s tooling displaces a little extra material that is removed, known as kerf. Our software accounts for kerf in every single cut so that you don’t have to.
Pricing minimums on all orders start at $29. There are no minimum quantities and no hidden fees. You’ll also start saving 20% as soon as you add a second identical part. The more identical parts you add, the more you save.
Standard orders are shipped with free 3-5 day shipping, anywhere in the USA. We also ship parts anywhere in Canada for $19 flat-rate shipping on all standard orders.
We also offer waterjet cutting and cnc routing. The good news is that we will always select the best machine for your project that will cut your parts with efficiency and at the most affordable rate. Here’s a breakdown of which service is best suited for different projects and materials.
