Mekanika Fab

FAB - your professional large-format CNC router. Increase your productivity up to 1300 x 2700 mm!

With its user-friendly design and reliable performance, the FAB CNC machine is a must-have for workshops that want to speed up their production. With a working area of 1300x2700mm, it is the ideal tool for routing entire panels of wood, aluminium, plastic, fibreboard and more.

Steel structure, driven by high torque motors. The FAB has a strong and rigid structure with 8 and 10 mm thick steel plates and aluminium profiles (30x60 mm and 60x60 mm).
Its modular design allows you to transport it through the front door of your workshop.
The high-precision rack and pinion system on the Y-axis, the ball screws on the X- and Z-axis and the prismatic rails enable high accuracy over long distances, even at high speeds.
The Z-axis has a large clearance of 133 mm to work comfortably with thicker materials.

Precise and fast CNC panel routing. With a working area of 1300x2700mm, this machine is specially designed for people who want to work with standard panels of all kinds and produce stairs, cabinets, surfboards and much more.
The FAB can mill a variety of materials reliably and at high speed.
Typical cutting parameters (softwood):

Feed speed: 7000 mm/min
Cutting depth: 5 mm
Spindle speed: 20,000 rpm
Carbide cutter 3 cutting edges 6 mmm

Plug-and-play on-board computer. Unlike many CNC milling machines on the market, the FAB has its own on-board computer (Raspberry Pi 4B - 2 Gb RAM).
This means you don't need a dedicated computer to run the machine and don't have to worry about the effects of dust on the machine's performance and longevity.
The electronic controls are ready to plug in and are assembled and tested in our workshop in Brussels.
Every Mekanika CNC milling machine is supplied with PlanetCNC Mk3/4.
