Now sporting a full sheet capacity, the BlueCarve Trax makes large format cutting a reality! Australian designed, made and owned, starting at $4490 for a 1.5×3 CNC with a 1270x2770mm cutting area, the Trax is driven by 20mm rack and pinion with the latest integrated driver closed loop 330ozin stepper motors and HGR15 linear rails on X and Y axis. Using the latest and most advanced motors, if its cutting aluminium or 45mm thick hardwood, this CNC will not disappoint. This is not a wheel and belt/ chain set up. Achieve greater than 0.3mm accuracy across the whole length. These are classed as a medium duty CNC so not as capable as a 2.5 tonne CNC. In saying that, it packs a good punch. Capable of cutting timber, plastics and soft metal. Excellent 3d carving capability. The thickness of cutting is dictated by the router bit you are using. The longer the bit, the slower you need to go. That would be the same with any CNC though. Cutting area 1500x2700mm rail size, 1270 x 2470cutting area, 105mm height clearance

  • Cutting area 1500x3000mm rail size, 1270 x 2770mm cutting area, 105mm height clearance
  • Motion controller Arduino Uno CNC Controller, GRBL 1.1h with optimal settings loaded (NOT THE XPROV5 as pictured)
  • Stepper motors integrated closed loop 330ozin 8mm shaft (X/Y/Z axis)
  • Max Rapids 8,000mm/min X & Y
  • Wiring 8 wire high flexible robot cabling
  • Plates 6mm steel (not aluminium like others) powder coated in BlueCarve blue
  • Spindle Mount 65mm as standard (suitable for a Makita Trimmer RT0700)
  • Power Supply 24v Australian approved desktop power supply
  • Proximity switches X, YL, YR (auto squaring) & Z back to 0, 0, 0 for greater accuracy
  • Drive 20x20mm rack and pinion
  • Motion HGH 15mm linear rails and blocks
  • Bits $65 worth of bits from www.endmill.com.au

What is not included

  • Laptop/computer
  • Spindle/trimmer
  • MDF base board/waste board
  • Table

Trax comes with a mount for a Makita RT0700/CX trimmer. Makita’s are great because they do not require an inverter/VFD or water tubes and run flawlessly for many 100’s hours. The downside of the Makita trimmer is accuracy (runout of 0.1mm+) and power limited to 710w. A spindle can achieve accuracies of 0.008mm runout and delivery of 2 to 3 times more power. We only offer the air cooled spindle for the Trax. Air cooled spindles do not require maintenance of a cooling system, slight louder but cannot go below 7200rpm

Push your machine even harder with a Trax Z Upgrade. Incorporating larger rail blocks and ball screw the Z upgrade is ideal for those wanting to mill soft metals or just cut faster and cleaner.

Z Upgrade

A really cool addition is a blue diode laser. This enables you to economically convert your Bluey to a fully functional laser CNC. Included in the cost is everything that you need to start engraving (additional software purchase needed ~$84usd).
– 7.5w is a great for engraving timber and can cut thin ply ~2mm
– 10w is a great engraver and can cut 5mm ply with air assist

There are two base options.
– Bring your own (BYO) 18mm MDF or Plywood base board and 18mm MDF waste board
– Aluminium T Slot Rails + BYO Strips of MDF in between the rails

With either option, you will still need to install MDF to cut in to.
T slot rails

Purchase additional clamps to suit your T slot rails.

Reduce time and increase cutting depth accuracy, with a Z probe. Your Z probe will be installed and tested. You will need to set up the Z probe on your computer which is relatively easy.

Purchase an additional 22m surfacing bit to level your waste board

Basic dust boot to suit either Makita trimmer, 65mm or 80mm spindle

We use 4 different booking agents to determine the cheapest and best shipping option. We do not mark up shipping because we think that’s not fair. That is why we cannot provide a live shipping option. Shipping to a commercial address with a forklift is by far the cheapest option. Considering it takes about 2 hours to pack and $75 worth of material, we only charge a $50 pallet fee for all shipping option. Shipping to door is only available for half sheet models.

Once you have submitted your order for a quote, we will reply with shipping options. The $300 is just an estimate.
