Review: Worth every penny - I purchased this CNC machine to accompany my earlier purchased 3018. It now lives next to my 3d printer and co2 laser cutter. So, the machine. Packaging was sturdy and somehow you knew from the outset when you picked up the box and felt the weight you had something special. Assembly. All in all took less than half an hour. Most of the machine is pre-assembled and apart from connecting a few cables here and there, it's all done for you. Parts. It comes with a spindle and Candle software, none of which I have used as I already had a Katsu router and prefer UGS as my gcode sender. Inclusions. A number of bits are supplied with the machine, though I have yet to use them as I am mostly machining aluminium. It is good that some bits are provided though. Spares. Once it is all put together, there is a spare part for each part required, for example, spare microswitches, spare bolts, etc. That certainly beats going to the DIY store after you have dropped one. So far, I could not be happier. Coupled with the higher power router, this machine is the perfect introduction to CNC machining and ticks all the right boxes. Pricewise it's extremely good value for money and in my opinion, worth every penny. If you're looking for a new hobby, buy one.
Review: Absolutely amazing machine - Oh my god I have had this three months now and I love it and still learning all the time. I use vcarve the offline controller which is an amazing combination it’s robust and fast I used an orange brand before and the build quality and ease of use is amazing can be used within mins of setting up.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it ingrave on cylinder objects?**
A: You can engrave on cylinder object parts if you have a rotary axis attachment.  You will also need a good cam software package to make the code to do the engraving.  Be sure to check the machine size because rotary axis attachments take up a lot of machine travel.

**Q: Can the gs775m 20000 rpm spindle  operate on this machine?**
A: Yes, it can work on this 4040-PRO CNC Machine but a stronger power supply is needed.

**Q: I cannot seem to find any information on the spindle that it comes with. White power and what Collett**
A: The spindle it comes with is the 775 spindle. The parcel includes the 4mm and 1/8" collet.

**Q: I purchased this and also bought the 2 packs of drill bits and cuttters they recommended is there anything else I'll need to get started?**
A: I recommend getting the offline control module.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth every penny
*by S***S on 30 April 2023*

I purchased this CNC machine to accompany my earlier purchased 3018. It now lives next to my 3d printer and co2 laser cutter. So, the machine. Packaging was sturdy and somehow you knew from the outset when you picked up the box and felt the weight you had something special. Assembly. All in all took less than half an hour. Most of the machine is pre-assembled and apart from connecting a few cables here and there, it's all done for you. Parts. It comes with a spindle and Candle software, none of which I have used as I already had a Katsu router and prefer UGS as my gcode sender. Inclusions. A number of bits are supplied with the machine, though I have yet to use them as I am mostly machining aluminium. It is good that some bits are provided though. Spares. Once it is all put together, there is a spare part for each part required, for example, spare microswitches, spare bolts, etc. That certainly beats going to the DIY store after you have dropped one. So far, I could not be happier. Coupled with the higher power router, this machine is the perfect introduction to CNC machining and ticks all the right boxes. Pricewise it's extremely good value for money and in my opinion, worth every penny. If you're looking for a new hobby, buy one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing machine
*by J***S on 29 January 2025*

Oh my god I have had this three months now and I love it and still learning all the time. I use vcarve the offline controller which is an amazing combination it’s robust and fast I used an orange brand before and the build quality and ease of use is amazing can be used within mins of setting up.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Very limited milling because of Z-axis flex and a 75watt spindle. Works great out of the box.
*by A***Y on 4 June 2023*

If you are after a proper milling CNC then this unit is really not going to make you happy. The Z-axis (Bridge part) flexes at the milling spindle because it pokes out too far. If you are doing laser work or marking out/pecking heavy materials with gcode routines then this is a very useful machine indeed, simple to use with the candle software all that's missing is a g-code generator which you will have to source yourself. I used CamBam which has a free trial period and a simple interface. This unit has been built to a price which shows up in the low power spindle and the motherboard part looks pretty cheap too. The xyz axes are very nicely put together with all the wiring hidden away and you get nice movement when the unit is working. The roundbars are very adequate and look like 5/8"(about 16mm) with a 1/8" wall which is nice and strong. The big problem is the working envelope is just a bit too big for the build and if your goal is the proper milling of harder materials like soft wood you are going to struggle It's a pity because this is a great intro machine for a beginner and will get you hooked on the infinite possibilities of CNC work 1 week of use. No problems so far if you don't push it. good accuracy. I Totally recommend the offline controller for convenience but watch that SD card slot, I use a bit of duck tape. If you pick up the unit and the not-very-secure sd card moves then your 3-hours-so-far job stops dead and can't recover aaargh.
