Manufactured In Canada!
Unlike most machines in this price range the General CNC Pro series is manufactured in Canada at General’s Drummondville, Quebec factory where some of the finest equipment in the woodworking industry has been built over the years. You can expect the
same high standard of quality from your General CNC router as you have experienced with all the General equipment in your shop.

Unrivaled Technical Support
From your initial activation throughout the life of your General CNC router table support is just a phone call or email away. General provides outstanding technical support to ensure an excellent return on your CNC investment.

ELTE 3 HP Commercial Spindle with Variable Frequency Drive
Manufactured in Italy, ELTE spindles offer the ultimate in cutting accuracy and performance. Whether you are doing fine carving, 3D modeling or a big production run, this spindle will get the job done!

General CNC Easy-To-Use Operating Software
General CNC operating software offers the operator the ultimate in control of cutting operation. The General system is one of the easiest to learn and full of features usually found on much more expensive operating programs.

General’s unique swap out service on electronic assembly
This is one of our most important features. In the event of any electronics service requirement, General will provide a complete “swap out” set of electronics. Simply disconnect the existing electronics assembly, contained in a single NEMA cabinet) and we
will ship you a replacement cabinet. This replacement is pre-calibrated and ready to run. Send us the original cabinet and that’s it!

Preloaded linear bearing and rail system
A preloaded rack of bearings on the X,Y and Z axis provides for years of trouble free operation. This is the very best bearing assembly for this type of cutting operation and never requires adjustment.

Rack and pinion power transmission on X and Y axis, ball screw transmission on Z axis
Rack and pinion power transmission provides excellent accuracy and allows for rapid traversing speeds during cutting operation on X and Y axis planes. This maintains positional accuracy of .004. We provide ball screw transmission on the Z axis to ensure
consistency in cutting depths to less than .001.

T-Slot/MDF Table Surface
General offers a standard T-Slot table surface which provides excellent hold down capability to secure your work piece during cutting operation. The sacrificial MDF surface can be milled to provide a perfectly flat cutting surface to ensure quality work
every time. It is also extremely economical to replace.

Z-Zero Automatic Positioning
Find your Z axis zero position with the push of a button with this amazing feature.

Most wear components are non proprietary and available through local suppliers
General has built these machines with service in mind. Most major mechanical components such as bearings and gearing are “off the shelf” and available through local supply sources. This ensures that you will always have readily available parts and that
the replacement cost of those parts will not be excessive as can be the case with proprietary replacement components.

Emergency stop switches for all axis
Single emergency stop will shut off power to all components including all drive motors, computer and the spindle.

You can see your design work to ensure that you know what you are going to get when you are done. Image changes color as the cutting operation progresses.

Easy-to-learn programming software
One of the most important features of the General CNC system is the easy-to-use software package that is included with each machine. Forget taking months to learn confusing and complicated design programs as is the case with some CNC packages.
With our software package you can be a quality of work you can be proud of in a matter of hours.
The package includes:
• V-Carve Pro: Easy to learn programming software. Perfect for custom
parts fabrication, sign design or virtually any design challenge.
• Photo V-Carve: Instantly takes your favourite photo and creates a
3D tool path.
• Cut 3D: Allows you to add 3D artwork to your design work.
