CNC routers are a low-cost alternative to CNC mills and are used in a range of industries, some of which are listed below:
- Furniture: CNC routers are used to manufacture a wide range of furniture-related components out of wood or plastic.
- Molding: CNC routers are used to make wooden patterns that are, in turn, used to make sand molds for metal casting. Wooden patterns are low-cost and can be machined quickly on a router.
- Packaging: CNC routers can easily cut foam into custom housings for sensitive or high-value products,
- Advertising: CNC routers can engrave custom lettering for signs and various advertising-related products. These signs can be made from wood or plastic.
