    Question Looking to invest in a Chinese CNC Router 4'x8'

    Hello everyone,

    I have been casually posting in the laser engraving section of this website, but this marks my first thread post outside of that realm.

    The reason is, I already own a Laser cutter, but I am looking to get a CNC router. I have contacted many Chinese factories and I am still learning about this machine. I am a pretty quick learner, so I am not worried about using the machine (it will be my first CNC router).

    I need to know if any of you have had any experience in a Chinese routers capable of a full sheet (1300mm x 2500mm, which is a full sheet of 4' x 8').

    Specs I have looked at:
    Working size 1300×2500×200mm
    3kw air cooling spindle
    stepper motor
    leadshine driver
    Delta inverter
    vacuum work table
    vacuum pump
    dust collector
    DSP control system


    The reason I need the machine is that I want to get into making wood signs and also modern furniture.

    I would love to hear your suggestions to what factory I should be contacting for a quality machine. I don't mind paying the extra money for a Chinese machine. I am not interested in a USA machine. I understand the risks of Chinese machines, as I have worked with many Chinese machines before but never a CNC router. There is good quality Chinese machines and bad quality as well.

    My budget is around $6000USD FOB. I have received quotes from different factories with the same above specs for less than my budget.

    My questions in a nutshell:
    What Chinese manufacturer do you suggest?
    What do you think of the DSP control system?

    Thank you all very much for your help!

    I would recommend continuing with caution - Less than $6000 is really cheap for a 4x8 Machine - Not saying its not possible but many Chinese companies tend to pump out cheap machines with no care for quality control. I see you have a Shenhui laser - Do you like it ?? Shenhui offers Cnc routers as well if you like that company.
