A 50mm face mill cutter is used to quickly remove material on a 6 meters length beam. The beam was cut in 3 program, and each program cuts 2 meters. The open ends router is perfact for feeding the long beam through.

All our CNC routers use NK105G2 Control System that is reliable and simple to use.
It comes with a handheld pulse controller that is handy for loading file, speed and axis control, tool offset, feed rate, etc. The control panel layout is shown below:

SHINING 3D is excited to announce the official launch of EaScan II, the latest light metrology 3D scanner that meets almost all of 3D measurement and inspection’s requirements at a very appealing price.
Easy-to-use and stable
Equipped with 3 sets of scan ranges and lightweight design, EaScan II stands out when scanning heavy and large objects, giving operators the full freedom to move around. Adopting the photo capturing technology, the EaScan II scans stably in blue light to avoid any harm to human’s eyes and adapts to the various working environment.
High accuracy and high efficiency
The EaScan II brings the excellent scanning speed and high-accuracy data. It takes less than 5 seconds for a single scan and cost around 10 minutes to scan a 1-meter-long object while keeping all of the high qualities.
Low-cost and powerful tool for 3D measurement and inspection
By non-contact measurement, the EaScan II is a powerful tool to complete full dimension measurement and inspection of complex surface structure quickly and easily. The EaScan II aims to help companies to reduce costs and improve efficiency. Its applications run from reverse engineering to 3D design, modeling and 3D inspection. The EaScan II is now available to order worldwide from today through local resellers.
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic is made from oil-based resources and is known for its impact resistance and toughness. Compared to PLA, ABS has a much higher melting temperature. Due to its higher melting point, ABS has to be printed at a higher temperature of around 240 to 260 degrees Celsius at nozzle temperature.
Polylactic acid (PLA) plastic is created from renewable resources, such as corn starch, tapioca roots or sugarcane. It is biodegradable and is widely used in packaging for items like food products. PLA is more brittle than ABS and due to its biodegradability PLA components have a shorter lifespan than ABS when subjected to harsher conditions. PLA is slightly easier to print with than ABS due to its lower print temperature and its ability to print on and stick onto an unheated print platform. Additionally, PLA filament can print at higher speeds.
Both ABS and PLA can produce dimensionally accurate parts and most people would have trouble distinguishing the better print. But ABS’s biggest disadvantage when it comes to print quality is its tendency to curl and warp at the bottom, or even sometimes in the middle of the print. ABS also has more trouble when it comes to finer details like sharp corners, which will often be printed with a slight rounded edge. To improve ABS prints, many people use a method of bathing their prints in an Acetone bath or Acetone vapour. This smooth’s out the print lines and gives a glossy, shiny appearance. Compared to ABS, PLA exhibits much less print warping. Because it undergoes more of a phase-change than ABS, it can also print much finer details. Active cooling enables PLA to print much sharper corners without the risk of curling, warping and cracking. PLA can also be printer at a higher flow rate, which leads to stronger over layer bonds. ABS components are still stronger due to the plastic’s mechanical properties.
ABS – plastic is made up of three main components which release tiny particles into the environment when heated. These particles can be potentially harmful to those breathing them in.
PLA – Because PLA is made from natural materials such corn it does not release the same sort of toxic smell that ABS emits.
Both ABS and PLA absorb moisture from the air if they are not stored properly. However your filament is not going to be ruined in a couple of days and moisture can be removed by drying it with the likes of a food dehydrator or oven. Preventing moisture absorption can be achieved by placing you filament in a sealed container or bag.
