The CNC 3018 Pro (With Offline Control) CNC Machine is a compact 3-axis desktop CNC router designed for engraving, carving, PCB milling, and light-duty machining. Built with an aluminum frame and driven by a GRBL control system, it provides an affordable and user-friendly solution for hobbyists, students, makers, and engineers.
Equipped with an offline controller, the machine can execute G-code files directly from an SD card without requiring a continuous computer connection. Its 300 × 180 × 40 mm working area, precision lead screw drive system, and ER11 spindle collet make it suitable for processing a wide range of soft materials such as wood, acrylic, plastic, PVC, PCB boards, and soft aluminum. The DIY kit design also offers an excellent platform for learning CNC technology and machine assembly.
