In order to enhance your creating experience with Snapmaker 200W CNC Module, and try to make it smooth and effortless, we present a concise overview of the recommended CNC processing parameters for the following materials: Aluminium-1060, Aluminium-5052, Aluminium-6061, Copper-H62, Beech, Walnut, Basswood, POM, Carbon Fiber and Acrylic. All the parameters listed have undergone official testing and are proven to be both safe and effective.
The following recommended parameters are for CNC Carving, do not use them for Cutting.
Currently, it is not recommended to use the Snapmaker Carving V-Bit to carve on metals, such as aluminium and copper, since the bit can be easily get worn. In future,we will try our best to provide more bits options to enable carving on metals.
The angle of the Carving V-Bit is 30°, and the tip diameter is 0.2mm.
