Fabertec M2 CNC Router
1325 / 1530 / 2030
For the most demanding professionals where 10-12 hours shifts may be a everyday norm the FABERTEC M2 CNC CENTRE is a perfect solution. Designed to withstand the challenging tasks, different materials, solid timber, composite panels and any other timber and plastic based products. Fitted as standard with HQD 9kW (12hp) air cooled spindle together with heavy 8-10mm steel structure fully welded, stress relieved and all surfaces for runners/linear bearings cnc milled to keep all axis perfect. It can cut through thick boards in one pass like a butter.
All M2 cnc machines are fitted with Automatic Tool Changer ATC with 12 tools at disposal in the carousel type storage. Located close to spindle is the quickest position for cnc to change tools. Of course all tool holders, starting bits and collets are included in the package so you can start your projects from day one. Vacuum table with T slot clamps with air cooled 7.5kW vacuum pump installed as standard. For more demanding cuts with smaller elements or if you will choose bigger table we strongly recommend to upgrade to 11kW KVE360 vacuum pump which will be much more efficient.
Maximize Efficiency and Precision with the Fabertec M2 CNC Router along with Automatic Tool Changer and servo motors
As in our FABERTEC M1 model the M2 also is fitted with FULL SERVO MOTORS with feedback to controllers. We believe that if you investing in CNC machine £15-30k it should have servo motors not stepper or hybrid stepper motors. Servo motors will provide you with much better speeds, higher accuracy, parts longevity and more efficient cooperation of motors with controller due to information loop. FABERTEC M2 comes as a ready to operate package with vacuum pump, 5.5kW double bag dust extractor, all necessary tooling, Vcarve Pro CAD/CAM software, warranty and our support.
All FABERTEC machines are designed in UK with fabricators in mind. Even if we using latest engineering solutions without breaking a bank we still think in terms of who will be using our machines and how quickly he/she can start to operate them. We believe in clever simplicity, easiness of operation and minimum maintenance required. We also supply our Clients with FUSION 360 postprocessor which will allow you to directly create G-code files for processing on CNC.

CNC Router Running Costs
When calculating your return on investment we need to look at all costs associated with your new CNC cutting department in the company. Every business is different and the approach should be focused exactly on your needs. That’s why please do not hesitate to contact us as we helped hundreds of businesses already even to the point of creating layouts and most lean solutions in manufacturing. We are here to help.
| Electricity Cost | £6.6/h |
| Labour Cost | £15/h |
| Maintenance Cost | £0.52/h |
| Air Compressor Cost | £1.5/h |
| Consumables Costs | £2/h |
Overall Hourly Costs
£25.62 roughly is the cost per hour and £204.00 per 8-hour shift.
- Electricity Costs
Running M1 and M2 models when it comes to electricity will be very similar. We will assume a more powerful vacuum pump KVE360 11kW as this will be the case with 1530 and 2030 models. The 1325 model running on a 7.5kW vacuum pump will be a bit lower in power usage. Typical per hour kW usage – 22kW. Assuming approx. £0.30 per kW it will cost £6.6 per hour just to run the machine. Of course between boards, You will switch off almost all motors but let's aim for the worst-case scenario.
- Labour Costs
Operator costs of course vary but our machines are built with simplicity in mind so even a 16-year-old apprentice can run programs after 30-60 minutes of training again let's allow for someone with more experience let’s say £30k per year, so around £15.00 per hour.
- Maintenance Costs
Now maintenance again can vary dependably if you will just go for one obligatory to keep the next year's warranty or go for a maintenance program. Let’s assume Just one maintenance visit per year which is approx. £1000.00 dependable on mileage. Allowing for 1920 hours in a year in 8-hour shifts as you can see this cost will be minimal at just £0.52p per hour.
- Air Compressor Costs
Being thorough we cannot forget on cost of the air compressor needed to run aside of CNC machine which will also cost us electricity. Probably you will have larger kW to run other Machines in the workshop but we can allow approx 5kW which is simply calculated as needed to create approx 16-20CFM which CNC needs to run which will cost us approximately £1.5 in electricity.
- Consumables Costs
Consumables may quote a spread cost depending on the type of boards you will be cutting, whether you are investing in costly cutting tools or just using cheaper Carbide and replacing them without sharpening. Let's assume you cutting typical mfc/mdf 18mm boards. Using cheap carbine cutter, they cost in the range of £7-10 per bit and they allow for quite good cuts on 30-40 boards. Then you need to replace them. In a typical working day, you can cut 30 boards if the operator is just taking care of CNC not drawing and designing toolpaths. So if we assume other items like collets, chucks, and cutters break sometimes - during the year we can conclude that approx £2.00 per hour allowance for cutting consumables should be sufficient. If you will be using expensive cutters for £200-300 then of course above will be much higher and keep in mind that 10-20x more expensive cutters will not cut 10-20x more boards. But those high-end cutters may be needed for some types of boards or keeping edge quality for longer.
- Overall Hourly Cost
Of course, we cannot here account for all overheads like workshops, light, heat, office, drafts person, loading/unloading boards, storage, forklift fuel, and many more which we should also, keep in mind if we want to be 100% accurate but that will vary between companies greatly so let’s put that aside. Summarising £25.62 roughly is the cost per hour and £204.00 per 8-hour shift – of course assuming the machine is running which is not the case per whole hour.
- Revenue Generation
If you investing in CNC machines to provide cutting services in the industry you are charged roughly £40.00 - £200.00 per board depending on the complexity of the cutting/routing/grooving. The lower Bracket of £40.00 is of course for simple cutouts of elements for carcasses/boxes/table tops etc. This operation shouldn’t take more than 7-10 minutes.
