|
Computer numeric control (CNC) wood routers cut wood with a spindle holding CNC router bits in three different directions: along an X-axis, a Y-axis, and a Z-axis. The CNC router bits rotate at high speeds, between 8,000 and 30,000 rotations per minute (RPMs), for cutting wood and certain kinds of softer materials. The types of bits available vary in shape depending on the type of cutting that needs to be performed, but include elongated bits with knife heads; spiral, rounded bits; and straight-toothed bits.
One of the types of CNC router bits utilized by a CNC router machine includes a body portion that is elongated, a piece on one end that mounts to the machine, and a shaped knife head on the opposite end. The knife head end has pairs of recesses in the bit, that are formed to be interchangeable and adaptable longitudinally. This compensates for knife recess wear and diametrical dimension loss from resharpening of the bit’s knife recesses. These types of CNC router bits are beneficial because they are semi-universal for wood cutting machines.
