Product Description
Unfortunately, we have run out of aluminum tables, but you can build your own of wood, steel or aluminum.
Raw Avantic
is our latest model and a further development from our previous models, Raw 1.5 and Raw 2.0. Raw Avantic is built of aluminum but in the same way as an industrial machine with high-quality linear bearings from Hiwan and a real Z-axis that can pass its own axis.The cutting depth is 165mm (Compared to about 110mm for our previous models).
These machines are so-called Desktop machines, they need a table to stand on. The reason for this design is that it should be easy to transport the machine and take it through doors and stairs. You can build your own table of wood, steel or aluminum or buy one of our tables that are adapted for the machine. the only requirement is that the table should hold the weight and be in level.
Raw Avantic is more intended for working with wood, but it is also possible to cut in harder materials such as Aluminum. The precision can be compared to more expensive industrial machines.

Describing the machine requires a lot of text so here is a summary, more advanced text below
- The machine is complete, and you can start cutting with it immediately.
- The machine can be ordered in three different sizes, 1500x2000mm with cutting surface: (W) 1100mm x (L) 1750mm, 1180x1350mm with cutting surface: (W) 720 x (L) 1060 mm and 1180x1000mm with cutting surface: (W) 720 x (L) 720mm
- It is not difficult to operate the machine. All the text below makes it look complicated but it’s simple.
- The machines are so-called “Desktop machines”, which means that you need to make a table for it or buy one from us.
- The machine is controlled with any Windows computer via USB port and a program called Mach3 or UCCNC.
If you do not already have it, you must select it in the drop down menu above. The files you want to cut are set in a so-called CAM software. We include a simpler CAM software called Vcarve Cut2D Desktop that you can upgrade if you want. Read more about the software below. - You can draw simpler models in the CAM software we include with the machine, if you need more complex parts you can use whichever CAD program (drawing program) you want, the machine is compatible with most drawing programs on the market.
What can I cut with a Raw Avantic?
Soft wood, hard wood, Mdf, plastic, aluminum, steel, Sign production, 3D carving and engraving etc. Note that aluminum and steel is difficult to learn how to cut and there are better machines for it such as laser or water jet. If you only want to cut aluminum or steel, you should look at more expensive industrial machines. We have cut thousands of meters of Aluminum ourselves with the machines, but it is difficult to learn. The machine is mostly for hardwood, wood, and softer materials such as plastic. Do not buy the machine if you are only going to cut in metal.

2.2kw spindle
Avantic is delivered with a powerful, air-cooled 2.2 kw spindle with integrated inverter that is connected to other electronics. These spidles are strong, quiet and reliable. We use these ourselves and have done so for many years. With this spindle you can use inserts from 1-13mm (ER 20). We include a pair of end mills and so you get started.
Protection and dust hood
All our machines are delivered with a protective cover that effectively absorbs dust and any splinters.

Calebration
Raw Avantic has 6 safety, homing and calibration switches for safety and precision. The switches are so-called Proximity switches that have no mechanical parts. Proximity switches are extremely accurate so that the machine can return to its “home” position with the best possible precision. The safety switches ensure that the machine cannot go too far, but stops the system and spindle as soon as the machine goes too far in any direction.

Precision
Precision is a balance between user and machine. It’s about how good your drawings are, spindle speed and how fast you cut. At a normal speed of about 2-4000m/min, the machine has the same accuracy as expensive industrial machines. Repeatability is: +/- 0.04 mm – 0.05 mm. The machine is built to mainly cut wood, plastic and similar materials. You can cut in aluminum but it requires experience no matter what machine you use.
Is it difficult to work with a CNC machine?
No, it’s simple. Raw Avantic is one of the easiest machines to work with on the market. We have placed great emphasis on making the machines as easy to operate as possible. You do not need to have previous knowledge or education. The only difficult thing is to draw your parts, the rest is easy. Once you have cut your first piece, you will understand. Watch our videos on the website and Youtube to see how easy it is to work with a Raw Avantic machine

20mm linear guide rail
Avantic is delivered with a full 20mm wide guide rails and blocks of Hiwin type. Most machines in this price range use 15mm, but we think that 20mm gives a more stable machine. Guide rails have an extreme precision that ensures that the axles do not have any “play” Guide rails are preferable to other solutions.
On each block (12 pcs) there is a grease nipple. You can choose to lubricate the machine through them or use spray lubrication that you spray on the rails themselves.

Consumption table (Waste board)
The consumption table is made of black Valchromat. Valchromat is a stronger MDF that can withstand water better if you treat it with oil or hard wax oil. The table is easy to replace as it consists of two tables, a base table and a consumption table. You can easily cut out a new consumable table in MDF or Valchromat after you have worn out the old one. The consumption table lasts about 6 months for medium-hard operation. Files for a new consumption table can be downloaded from our website. The table is of the infinity type, which means that you can cut longer pieces than the table by pushing it forward between runs.

Stepper motors
We have chosen the strongest nema 23 motors on the market. The machine is made of aluminum and has a low weight and the strength of the motors is good enough. The motors are so strong that a full-grown human can stand on the machine axis while the machine cuts. The choice of parts is crucial for whether you need a 3-phase or a standard 220 socket. We have scaled down everything so that 220 volts and 10 Amps are enough. The motors have a direct drive against the rack to reduce backlash and we have reduced the repeatability to: +/- 0.04 mm – 0.05 mm, which is very good for a semi-professional machine.
Software
Cutting with a CNC machine requires 2-3 different software’s such as drawing, CAM (set the files you have drawn) and Control software (to run the file). You can choose between Mach3 and UCCNC to operate the machine. Read more below. We include a CAM software for this machine so you can get started easily. The CAM software we include also has an integrated drawing software for simpler models and you can do with these two programs in the beginning. If you grow out of the drawing software in the CAM part, you can use more advanced drawing software’s such as Auto CAD or Fusion360 and others. read more about the included CAM software below this box.
UCCNC or MACH3 control software, what should you choose?
The control software is the program you use to control the machine after you have drawn and set up your files. UCCNC is more modern than Mach3 but Mach3 has been around longer and contains more features. UCCNC is slightly cheaper than Mach3.
Pros and Cons
Mach3 is the best control software in our opinion but a program that will disappear since they do not update it anymore, but it is not needed, it’s as good as it can be.
Mach3 looks outdated but is the most used in the world, which means that there is more support and features. The disadvantage of Mach3 is that it is controlled with the printer port (LPT) and computers with LPT are no longer manufactured. We have a solution for this called UC100. UC100 converts LPT signals to USB so you can use Mach3 on a modern computer, read more below.
Mach3 with UC100
Select Mach3 with UC100 if you think you need other features such as optical camera, 4th axis or ATC. You will find codes as well as plugins for it quite easily but finding it to UCCNC bay be difficult at this point. The Mach3 option comes with a UC100 module that allows you to control the machine with any Windows computer. We include instructions on how to install the software and module
UCCNC with UC100
Select UCCNC with UC100 if you want a more modern user interface. You will have most features but installing other features can be difficult as the software is new. UCCNC will have all these features but it may be harder to find at this point. UCCNC is relatively new and new features are added gradually and it will most likely replace Mach3 in the future. UCCNC allows you to run on any Windows computer you want, new or old. As long as you have a USB port available.
NOTE that the tool used to calibrate height and edges (probe) does not work fully with UCCNC, you can only calibrate the height and not the edges. The latest version of UCCNC has these features but we have not had time to look at it.
You can do well without edge calibration as the machine has proximity switches that
zero the machine just as accurately.
Whatever you choose above, you can switch to another option whenever you want, the machine is compatible with all software that uses more advanced electronics.

The CAM software included in for this machine
The CAM software we include is a simpler version of Vcarve PRO which is one of the most used CAM software’s for a CNC machine. The software is called Cut2D Desktop and is somewhat limited but perfect to start with. You can later upgrade to Vcarve PRO if you grow out of it. With Cut2D Desktop you can cut out everything except 3D models. You can import Vector files that you find or buy online, engrave, and cut on both sides of the material etc. You can also import your own files that you draw in any drawing software as long as you get the file in .DXF format. All of this may sound complicated, but it is easy after you have done it a few times. See the instructional video below for Vcarve products. The parts you can cut out can be a maximum of 600x600mm so if you need to cut larger parts you have to upgrade the software to Cut2D PRO or Vcarve PRO, you can read more about it if you visit the product on our website.
Support
Raw Avantic is manufactured in Sweden and developed by us who previously worked as furniture carpenters. The machine came as an alternative to the expensive, heavy Asia machines that usually have a delivery time of 3-4 months and with questionable support. We always have personal support and guarantees.
