When it comes to routing Precision Board HDU with a CNC machine, we often get asked questions about proper settings for speeds and feeds. We came across this excellent article from AXYZ, a global manufacturer of CNC router systems and CNC knife systems. They do a...
The Human Powered Vehicle (HPV) Team at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo is doing something a little different this year. Rather than race at the student competition put on by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), they decided to compete at the World Human...
CR Onsrud wanted to show off their 5-axis Qube CNC machine at trade shows, so they got in touch with Coastal Enterprises to throw some ideas around. Onsrud regularly uses Precision Board as demo material on their routers, but they wanted to really highlight the...
We previously showed you how a team of engineering students from UCSD designed and fabricated a unique human-powered submarine as part of their classroom learning experience. Instead of using a rotary propeller, they took a cue from marine life and designed a dolphin...
The PrecisionBoard.com Website Has Been Redesigned! New landing pages for Signage & Tooling Applications. “We know that time is money,” said Chuck Miller, President of Coastal Enterprises, “so we simplified the home page with buttons for the most popular Precision...
A team of engineering students from the University of California - San Diego (UCSD) designed and fabricated a unique human-powered submarine as part of their classroom learning experience. Instead of using a rotary propeller, they took a cue from marine life and...
Wondering about ways to improve your CNC efficiency while still getting clean cuts and reducing down time? Use the following speeds and feeds settings from LMT Onsrud and also MultiCam as a starting point and play around with them until you get the right combination...
One of the more frequent inquiries we receive at Coastal Enterprises involves questions about CNC machining of Precision Board HDU. Typical questions include, “what type of cutter works best,” “where do I start with my speed and feed settings,” and “what should my...
MultiCam Inc., a global supplier of CNC cutting solutions, tested out their 5000 Series Waterjet on several densities of Precision Board HDU and sent us video and settings information. They cut a variety of shapes into the Precision Board, showing off the 5-axis...
