Leaf Pattern Modillion Engraved by OMNI CNC Router

Leaf Pattern Modillion Engraved by OMNI China CNC Router. 
This time, the modillion is with leaf and flower on it, very traditional type for the architecture. Mo*dil"lion, n. Etym: [F. modillon, It. modiglione. Cf. Module, n.] (Arch.)

Defn: The enriched block or horizontal bracket generally found under the cornice of the Corinthian and Composite entablature, and sometimes, less ornamented, in the Ionic and other orders; -- so called because of its arrangement at regulated distances.

Processing Speed: 8000mm/min, it takes 2.5hr to work on it. If it is wood material processed by china cnc router, it takes 3-4 hr.

Wooden Sign Processed by CNC Wood Router

Here is the photo about the completed wooden sign made by cnc wood router.

First step, you engrave wood plate big words, and make and do fretwork on other plate by cnc wood router. when these stuff are ready, make enamel paint and acrylic paint on them, waiting for dry.

So the final wooden sign made by cnc wood router seems very good.

CNC Metal Router Engrave and Cut Metal

CNC Metal Router Engrave and Cut Metal

Before we process metal material, we should know its features. Usually, copper is more sticky and tough, and with less hardness. According to these features, when we use cnc wood router to engrave, we should notice the cutter choose.
We should ensure the sharpness of cnc wood router cutter. Its sharpness is related with front and back angle value, bigger angle, more sharp. the cutter with higher particle index, then more sharp. Then is the powder removing capability, more smooth of front cutter surface, more faverable for powder removing; bigger flute, then more faverable for powder removing.
Besides the above, it requires cnc wood router spindle with certain rotating speed. Adjust the spindle speed higher, then lower the cutting capability.

The Design Made by CNC Wood Router

We see more and more organic and natural inspiration in designer furniture pieces. The surrounding environment is re-imagined in many new furniture designs, one of which is the Ocean’s Edge Table. According to its designer, America-based Tyson Atwell, the new dining table ” is part of an ongoing body of work utilizing a CNC wood router to digitally sculpt oceanic waveforms moving across planar wood surfaces”. With experiments utilizing new technologies and designers composing new ideas, the design game is about to change very soon.
Imagine how it would be to dine at a table that rises out of and dips back in to shape – an undulating tabletop reminiscent of the curves naturally exhibited by water. The tabletop speaks the language of modern design molded after a sequence of tide curves sourced from the entrance of the San Francisco Bay. This beautiful representation of a still moment in time will accompany you during many dinners with family and friends, creating a fascinating atmosphere.

CNC In Modeling And Prototyping

CNCs in Modeling and Prototyping

A CNC tool can be used in many ways for prototyping, reverse engineering and modeling.  As a rapid-prototyping tool, a OMNI can machine foam, wood, plastics and aluminum to efficiently create prototype and reproduction parts.  With a CNC tool, you will typically be doing subtractive prototyping, but it is a process that lets you machine quickly in materials that are similar to the end product.  Large projects can also be done using additive layering techniques that allow substantial models to be constructed even beyond the machinable area of the CNC.

The sheer versatility of a CNC wood router in a prototyping setting is nothing short of astounding.  With a good CAD/CAM package and a CNC router, it is possible to create master models with the proper draft for secondary operations such as casting, vacuum forming, sheet metal stamping and FRP composite construction.  These types of models are typically 2.5D, meaning that they don’t have undercuts and can be completely machined on a 3-axis CNC on one side of the material.  In addition, advances in affordable hardware and software now give you the ability to cut double-sided parts using 3 axes and carve true 3D parts on a machine equipped with a 4th axis, rotary indexer.  The indexer can be used as a lathe to cut simple profiled turnings or elaborate 3D parts and relief carvings, giving many of the advantages of a 5-axis tool at a fraction of the cost.

Mold Making

Aside from playing a key role in subtractive methods of creating models, the CNC is also instrumental in preparing molds for creating parts.  Thermoset plastic parts can be created in conjunction with a rotational molding machine.  Masters can be created on the CNC, molded and setup to produce thin-walled and hollow models not possible using a subtractive strategy. A CNC router coupled with the proper mold making equipment is a potent combination spanning many industries and applications.

Reverse Engineering Processes

While CNC wood routers excel at producing accurate parts with speed and efficiency, they also excel when it comes to reverse engineering an existing 2D or 3D part.  The digital version of the part can then be toolpathed to produce an exact duplicate, or transformed into an updated version by modifying the scale or geometry to create the required part. Using the optional rotary indexer, odd-shaped and cylindrical 2D & 3D parts can be digitized a full 360° with the same straight-forward method as a standard 3-axis tool equipped with a probe.
