Description

The Mega V 2 Full Sheet CNC router is an upgraded workhorse designed to cut 4’x8′ sheet materials with ease, while maintaining the precision necessary for small, intricate parts as well. This improved version of its predecessor caters to a wide range of users, from professional cabinetmakers to sign shops to hobbyists. Whether you’re crafting large-scale projects or machining in intricate details, the Mega V 2 Full Sheet offers the perfect balance of power and finesse.

Since the launch of the original Mega V in 2019, we’ve collected feedback from thousands of Mega V owners and have engineered features to take your CNC experience to the next level. Engrave, cut, flatten, or carve almost anything you can imagine with the Mega V 2 Full Sheet.

This model continues the legacy of high speed steel rack and steel pinion power transmission on the X and Y axis with an improved Z axis screw drive. Improvements of the Mega V 2 Full Sheet include:

Linear profile rails on every axis with high rigidity NSK bearings on the Y axis
Improved subframe for extra rigidity and easy squaring

Taller Z height with over 5.25 inches of gantry height and 6 inches of Z stroke
Self-squaring gantry via independently driven Y motors and dual homing switches
Homing switches come standard with precision switch mounts for easy switch positioning via machined registration points
Upgraded switch and signal cable wiring
Z axis coupler is now pinned to the drive screw to eliminate the possibility of slippage between the motor and drive screw
Upgraded cable chain mounts
Pinion gear guarding for enhanced safety
Enhanced adjustment of Y axis motors with inclined plane mounts
Improved build instructions with exploded views
Leveling feet
Optional Masso G3 Touch Control system
Options for 120V spindle package or router mount for DeWalt DW618 router (routers not offered, only the router mount)

Control System Options:

The GRBL system requires you to hook up your computer to the machine via a provided USB cable. You will run one of the many free interfacing programs for communication. We have one available on the resources page.

The Masso G3 Touch system is a highly advanced motion control system with a large touch screen control that allows for WiFi connectivity, faster processing, and more sophisticated control. The automatic tool changer option is only available to you if you select the Masso G3 Touch Control System. The GRBL system will NOT run the automatic tool changer.

All of the electronics are pre-wired.

Router Mount and Spindle Options:

There are multiple options to suit your needs for router mounts and spindles. If you prefer a router, we recommend getting the router mount for the DeWalt DW618. We do not sell the routers, just the router mounts.

If you prefer a higher quality machine spindle option, we have three configurations to choose from:

The 1.5kW 120V air cooled spindle is a VFD driven machine spindle with an RPM range of 6000-24000 and does not require any external water plumbing and operates on 120V. It uses an ER20 collet system and requires that you use wrenches to change the cutting tool. This option can be used on either control system.

The 2.2kW Manual Quick Change ISO20 spindle runs on 220 volt single phase with an RPM range of 6000-24000 and uses air pressure to clamp and release the ISO20 tool holders by a simple button press. With this option, you do not need wrenches to change the cutting tool. Comes with four ISO20 tool holders. This option can be used on either control system.

The 2.2kW Automatic Tool Changer ISO20 spindles runs on 220 volt single phase with an RPM range of 6000-24000 and automatically changes from one tool to the other. This option includes an 8 tool position tool trolley that automatically deploys during a tool change so the machine and spindle can seamlessly and automatically change its cutting tools. Selecting this option will provide all of the pneumatic components and sensors necessary for reliable operation. This is an excellent choice for those needing production level capabilities and full jobs completed without the interaction of an operator. Comes with four ISO20 tool holders (positions for up to 8). This option is only available with the Masso control. The GRBL system can not handle automatic tool changes.

You MUST have an air compressor with at least 5CFM at 95 PSI for the ATC Spindle and Manual Quick Tool Change ISO20 Spindle.

Bed options:

You may provide your own bed surface or select our Vacuum Plenum Bed. This bed option is intended to be used with a vacuum (not included) for suctioning down sheet goods. It is comprised of a grid square pattern that allows for rubber gasketing material (not included) to be placed at the perimeter of the workpiece to seal the vacuum. This is the right choice for pulling down thing sheets such as circuit boards, veneers, sheet panels such as sheet aluminum, plywood, or MDF. This will not work to hold down rigid pieces such as 2x4" lumber, warped slabs, or small pieces where vacuum doesn't have enough surface area to create a strong hold. There are, however, panel nuts included to supplement in hold down or to allow for mechanical clamping if vacuum isn't used. Vacuum plumbing and actual vacuum is NOT provided, but a list of suggested materials are provided here. These are just the vacuum plenum bed panels.

Note that part of the cost of these beds on this product page covers the extra shipping incurred by shipping these boxes to you that would not otherwise be incurred if you provided your own bed.

Select 3 axis or get an optional rotary 4th axis

The optional 4th axis uses a 3 jaw chuck on the headstock to clamp cylindrical parts up to 2.75" in diameter. It features a planetary gearbox on the headstock that multiplies the torque of the NEMA 23 motor five times and equally increases the resolution. The 4th axis system also comes with an independent tail chuck on sliders that can be placed any distance from the headstock to allow you to machine cylindrical parts then easily unclamp and reclamp the next part. This accessory is ideal for parts such as chair spindles, baseball bats, chess pieces, statuettes, and other parts similar to what a lathe would make.

Cutting area of 97" x 50" x 5.25" (with 6.25" Z Stroke) and footprint of 63" x 105".

Interface programs are free for any machine. The GRBL control system has a range of free interfacing programs, including our version of Universal G Code Sender on our resources page. The Masso G3 control system has a built in interface program.

CAD and CAM (design and toolpathing) software is NOT included. Hobbyists and start-ups can get access to Fusion 360 for free from Autodesk. See Autodesk for specific details. We use a commercial version of Fusion 360 for designing and tool pathing and we recommend it for users making mechanical parts, especially if you qualify for free access. There are other free programs as well.

We also sell a variety of premium design and tool pathing programs. These programs are great for both mechanical parts and artistic work such as signs.

Easel Pro is a very user friendly design and tool pathing program. It is great for a the beginner but it is not shy on features. You can 3D Carve, V bit carve, and connect directly to the machine (skipping the interface program) using the GRBL system. It also has built in files to make it easy to get running. Easel Pro will NOT run a 4th axis or connect directly to a 4th axis machine or Masso Control. It is sold as a ONE YEAR license.

Vectric VCarve Desktop lets you cut 2D shapes, V Carve, 3D carve, and do rotary 4th axis wrapped toolpaths (bats, chair spindles, etc). It has a maximum work area limitation of 24"x24". It is sold as a permanent license.

Vectric VCarve Pro does everything the Desktop version does, but with no limit to your work area. This is an excellent choice for the Mega V 2 XL and larger machines. It has the added benefit of a nesting feature to maximum part yield out of a sheet. It is sold as a permanent license.

Vectric Aspire is the king of design and tool pathing software. It has no work area limit and does everything VCarve Pro does, plus 3D modeling, sculpting, and slicing. It is sold as a permanent license.
