MultiCam routers come very complete. Pick the spindle which best fits your needs and you are ready to go. We recommend our auto mister for
cutting aluminum and brass. The auto mist function only comes on when the cutter is entering the material. This avoids waste and excess mess.
All maintenance tools are included as well as grease to lubricate the bearings.

Helical Rack System
The new High Speed Helical Rack system upgrade to the MultiCam 5000 Series CNC Router is very impressive. If watching the system move is not impressive
enough, just wait until you cut with it.
The system comes standard with an automatic lubrication system that keeps a slight film of oil on the rack. The lubrication system is required to reliably
achieve the velocity that the machine is capable of. With speeds of 2000 ipm single axis and 2800 maximum rapid traverse the Helical Rack System can get
to a full speed move within 4.44 inches.
There are a number of advantages that Helical Rack has versus straight rack. Helical rack & pinions run much quieter than straight rack and pinions,
especially at high speeds. Due to the angular cut in the Helical rack and pinion setup, there are thrust loads on the gear shaft. This action requires
thrust bearings to absorb the load and maintain gear alignment. The Alpha Gear Boxes that MultiCam already uses are designed to handle this load, and
the new design of the 5000 Series automated routers allow for exceptional perpendicularity and gear alignment. Faster acceleration and accuracy is
achieved because of a greater number of teeth engaged than straight racks. Distributing the load over several teeth also reduces wear and increases the
life of the rack and pinion system.
MultiCam recommends this upgrade to anyone that wants to cut smoother, faster, and more accurately. Cabinet shops or other companies that have projects
requiring point to point drilling will see a substantial decrease in job times. This is primarily due to the high accelerations. Customers with longer
machines will also see a significant benefit with the high-speed rapid traverse moves.

Collet Spindle Options
The Colombo 2, 4, 7.5 and 10 HP spindles are excellent general-purpose spindles. Most spindles have electric cooling fans, which give full cooling at
both low and high spindle speeds. The bottom pair of angular contact bearings are supported in a cast iron end bell.

Vacuum Options
The vacuum systems available from MultiCam have been developed through years of testing and trial. Because many applications require different hold down
techniques, the standard systems offered meet a wide range of demands. All MultiCam systems feature solid phenolic working surfaces. The phenolic is
gridded on a standard pattern with .5" grooves on 2" centers. Ports and optional valving arrangements vary with the size and type of system.

Drilling Options
Multicam offers a couple options when selecting your drilling needs. The 32 mm Gang drill has added features such as a full rotation capability for
nested sheet applications and the Electric/ Pneumatic drill adds up to 2 additional drills to the MultiCam for added production efficiency. To see more
drilling options please click the link below.
