Freeform CNC Machines

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 'Goliath CNC' Works on Any Surface for Cutting, Milling and More

— October 20, 2017 — Tech
The 'Goliath CNC' comes as one of the most impressive pieces of design equipment out there that will provide users with a way to create projects in a freeform manner rather than feeling confined in their workspace.

The CNC machine works by incorporating a portable design that can be placed on any surface to mill, engrave or cut your project to the exact specifications required. This is achieved by incorporating a series of position sensors that can be set to a defined workspace to ensure only the desired area is used when performing the job.

The 'Goliath CNC' comes as an autonomous addition to the design world that acknowledges the need for more freeform products for makers that are looking to DIY projects from their own home.
