3-axis CNC Router Engraver ChinaCNCzone 3040Z-DQ HD

http://toolboom.com/en/3-axis-CNC-Router-Engraver-ChinaCNCzone-3040Z-DQ-230-W.php In our today’s video we will unbox a 3-axis CNC Router Engraver ChinaCNCzone 3040. It can be used to work with plexiglass, wood or plastic. This device is produced by ChinaCNCzone, a subsidiary of Scotle Technologies, famous for their infrared soldering stations Achi and Scotle. Let’s begin. After we have opened the box, the first thing we see is a piece of packing material, about 3 cm thick. All of the contents underneath are also put in packing material, to ensure the equipment arrives safely to its final destination. Here we have: a data cable, a user manual, a very well packed software CD, a box with accessories (we will take a closer look at them a bit later), and the engraver itself. Let’s take out the engraver. Despite its size, the device is not that heavy, as it is made from aluminum alloy. Let’s check what’s inside the accessories box. We have a power cable and an additional data cable. In this small box we have accessories for fixing a workpiece on the work table, and also working instruments. Standard package contains 4 such instruments. A set of hex keys to assemble and configure the device and 4 additional limit switches are here as well. There are 3 axis motors in the contents package for X, Y and Z directions, and a spindle motor. There is a cooling ventilator on this side, and a place to connect a working instrument on the other. This is the most interesting part of the device – a control box. Let’s take a closer look at it. On the front panel there is a power button of the box, a spindle on/off switch, spindle speed control and an emergency stop button. On the back panel there is a power cable input, a parallel port input to connect to a PC, a cooler, an input to connect a spindle, X, Y and Z axis inputs and inputs for their limit switches. However, as you can see right here, there’s also an A axis input. This is because the control box, as well as the engraver, is universal. You can buy additional equipment for the fourth axis, install it on the engraver, connect it to the control box and have a 4-axis engraver. So, you have a possibility to either buy a 4-axis engraver right away or work with a 3-axis one, then buy equipment for the fourth axis if necessary. Even the control box itself has a marking that it is a 4-axis controller. Let’s get back to the engraver. It’s made from an aluminum alloy and is assembled very well. For the safety of transportation, the device is delivered with disconnected motors. Spindle motor is connected here, axis motors are connected here. Each axis has its own set of limit switches. This cable is used to connect everything to the control box, every output is marked, X, Y, Z and so on. Underneath, there is a mechanism for movement along the axis. There are slots on the work table that serve two main functions. The first function is to fasten a workpiece on the work table with these bolts and brackets that come
