Customer Reviews for VEVOR CNC 3018 CNC Router Kit 3 Axis CNC Router Machine GRBL Control with ER11 and 5mm Extension Rod for Plastic Acrylic PCB PVC Wood Carving Milling Engraving Machine

A wonderful new toy for me. It was so easy to assemble and easy to follow instructions. Hooking up to the computer was a breeze and connecting worked as well. I really pleased with it and have lots to do on it. All I need now is the time to get to them. Can't wait. Thanks

Out of the box this machine impressed me, all parts were heavy duty, stepper motors - screws - slides were top quality. Took about an hour to assemble, no problem with the instructions, just needed a way to measure CM/MM for layout of a few components. All motors have nice couplings with double set screws that hold the screw securely. I use the online easel software from inventables to make the design, download the g-code to the included SD card using the included USB adaptor, then plug the SD card into the offline controller and launch. Note that my unit would randomly error and the spindle would carve across the workpiece to the machine limits with no warning. However, Vevor's customer service was great, they determined that it was interference between the motor and control board and sent an upgraded motor and new control board which solved the issue (shipped from China to USA in just a couple days). The only real downer is that there are no limit switches so if you overshoot your x/y/z the stepper motors will growl. I'd buy another without question, well done Vevor!

The machine appears to be sturdy and well-engineered. One BIG problem: It came with NO instructions for making all the electrical connections. Everything on the Internet shows different wires, a different controller and different hookups to the controller. The bottom line is, I haven't used it yet. The mechanical assembly instructions were short of adequate but I made it through them. If something doesn't show itself pretty soon, it will become an expensive boat anchor with nearly $700 down the toilet.

The product arrived quickly and undamaged and was as advertised. Both the enclosure and router came with detailed instructions and were easy to assemble. The manual controller worked the first time with no problems. I had to download a missing *.dll file on my PC to get the Candle software to work. I have since accessorized the unit with additional collets, router bits, and spoil boards. I am going through some online tutorials to learn the Candle software better and to take advantage of the I/O pins on the control board for various switches and a height probe, which are not included. Overall the Vevor 3018 Pro is the best value for a quality starter CNC router.

This little CNC is great value, good for learning how to operate a CNC. I added a laser to mine which bolted straight on, to do some engraving. These units are expandable(Y axis) but I think the first upgrade is some quality bits. Making small wooden signs is easy with this.

I have not used it yet l mistakenly.thought it came with a lazer head so i am looking to bye a lazer for it

I have not used yet i mistakenly thought it came with the lazer head i am trying to purchase one as you don't sell them separately

I bought this with some ideas in mind. It works exactly as described. I am no expert, struggle to do stuff with it at times, but once set up properly, this unit is great for small CNC jobs.

Fantastic machine for the price. Does exactly what it says. Good laser as well. I would recommend buying this product.

this little cnc is very stout for its size, nice build easy instructions ,i would buy again, i have not cut anything yet but looks like it will persevere
