Be sure to check out other pieces of equipment which may also suit your needs like the Trotec Speedy360 Laser Cutter, Protomax Waterjet, and Tormach 770 CNC Mill.
</aside>
The Nomad 3 is a fully enclosed computer numerical controlled (CNC) desktop mill, that can process a range of materials, including metal, wood and plastics.
It has a maximum work area of 200mm x 200mm x 70mm, although practically always limited by the maximum cutting depth of the bit (see below for provided bits).
The small size and less powerful nature of this machine make it an excellent introduction to making using CNC! We recommend reading the user guide and SOP before getting started with the machine or starting with our Bits and Bobs Tray!
