CNC Machining - Advanced Machining, CNC Machine For Education
 
 
Introduction to CNC Machining
Get started with introducing our machines to your students the easy way. With downloadable drawings and step-by-step instructions using our included easy to use DeskProto Lt software, getting started with the CharlyUSA machines is as easy as we could possibly make it. You can take a look at the projects on the curriculum page, and judge how much time you want to spend on a project and the level of challenge based on the difficulty level. If you are unsure of the material to use for a project, or the cutting bits to use, they are available directly below each project.

In plenty of classrooms across the country, we hear about machines that are sitting in the corner collecting dust. Typically, someone ordered the machine, used it for a while, then changed jobs and no-one else knows how to use the machine. It is important this doesn’t happen. The machine is a great teaching tool and should be used for years. We don’t just sell a machine and ship it to you, then leave you to figure it out. With our system it is easy for someone that has never used a machine to get started. We have online programs, step-by-step instructions, and projects and materials for even the newest users.

Advanced Machining
The CharlyUSA machines are not just light duty machines for education. These machines are capable of the highest quality machining. Having being used extensively for industrial applications, ranging from detailed jewelry, engraving applications, inlay work, and orthodic inserts to prototyping radio faceplates and components for medical prosthetics, these machines have been used for them all. CharlyUSA machines are also capable of machining slightly harder materials such as aluminum, brass, and bronze, allowing the user more freedom with their designs. To allow the more advanced users the ability to use the machine to its full extent, we offer optional programs. Deskproto Pro and Visual Mill are programs that are used in industrial applications already, however, if your school is already using another CAD and CAM program, our machine will typically work with all CAM programs.
