An Entry Level Router Made in America!
If you’re looking for an entry level priced CNC router, then your search is over. The ShopSabre RC Series is the most advanced Entry Level Solution on the market, designed specifically with the entry-level budget in mind. When comparing the RC Model to its comparable competition it comes with a lot more than you’d expect to find on an entry level machine. The RC Series gives users the ability to buy a truly American Made machine at a price commonly found in import equipment. With the upgraded rack and pinion X & Y Axis, this machine is great for hobby, lower accuracy applications, and low production shops. (See Our Ball Screw Machines for Production & higher accuracy Needs)
The RC Series features the heaviest steel construction in the class, paired exclusively with Heavy Duty Industrial Closed Loop motors with encoders connected to direct drive planetary drives, this American built machine gives you the durability and reliability you won’t find in Chinese imports and low-cost solutions.

1. Industrial Precision Frame
ShopSabre CNC Frames are FEA Engineered and Tested constructed from Massive 4”x4” Structural Steel Tubes which are Welded for added rigidity. Each RC Series Frame comes with 6 Legs to giving you more floor contact and better vibration control. Each Leg is cross braced and reinforced with a Steel Side Panel to add additional stiffness to increase the rigidity!
2. Closed Loop Motors
ShopSabre RC Machines come standard with Heavy Duty Industrial Closed Loop motors with encoders for Higher Speeds, Higher Accuracy, and Less Maintenance – Self Monitoring Encoder Technology provides extreme performance – Closed Loop Motors eliminate the Missed Steps, Loss of Accuracy, and Loss of Torque!
3. ShopSabre “Floating Drive” Technology
ShopSabre RC Series machines are Driven by XY Axis large rack and pinion with ShopSabre Exclusive inverted “Floating drive” gear engagement technology. This technology allows your rack and pinion to reduce debris contamination while self-aligning for wear. This will increase the performance of the gear, increase gear life, and reduce your maintenance.
4. Aero Space Milling Technology
ShopSabre CNC Gantry Systems are Run through some of the world’s most advanced processes to assure they are accurate including Precision Milling of contact surfaces for Bearing & Rail Placement. A machine can only be as accurate as it’s foundation so the Frame on a ShopSabre is built to a tolerance above the competition.
5. Vacuum Performance
The Vacuum Option on the ShopSabre RC Series gives you quick and easy zone control with integrated hard pipe connection for increased air flow and the reserve tank built into the frame to assure your vacuum stays consistent!
6. HiFlow Vacuum Technology
ShopSabre CNC HiFlow Vacuum Technology increases the surface flow by as much as 50% over the competition which in the end results in higher holding pressures and power and better performance. Each Vacuum table on the RC Series comes Milled from the factory by your machine cutting head reducing the needs for gaskets and bolts to hold your spoil board down and our exclusive HiFlow Grid makes nested manufacturing a breeze.
7. Super Z Technology
ShopSabre RC Machines are available with the Super Z Technology designed here at ShopSabre CNC. This increases your Z Axis to 9” of Travel while maintaining incredible rigidity thanks in part to our FEA Engineered Stiffener Technology for Tool Plate Strength and our upgraded High Torque Z Axis Closed Loop Motor Control System and Air Balancer Technology giving you some of the quickest Tool Changes and Drilling cycles in the class!
8. Precision Linear Guide Technology
ShopSabre CNC uses the latest in CNC Bearing Technology with 25MM Linear Guide Rails and Bearings on all Axis. Each axis has 4 Large Body Quad Bearing rollers with wipers to increase the performance of your machine. These Bearings assure the surfaces stay clean while increasing the machine rigidity under load which results in increased performance and reduced maintenance in large part due to the ball bearing technology!
9. Industrial Precision Gantry
Just like our Frames, our gantry construction is constructed of massive heavy wall 4x10 Tubes that have been FEA Designed and Tested to provide higher cutting forces and less vibration. The Bearing Spacing on our gantries are larger than competition’s machines to better handle the routing forces while increasing cut speeds.
10. Industrial Gantry Uprights
Like everything on a ShopSabre, the Gantry uprights are also more industrial. Using High Quality North American Structural Steel these uprights increase the bridge clearance to 8” Standard and provide more rigidity for better cutting quality and versatility.
