TAIGTurn 3029CR CNC-Ready Lathe 5C

Taig 3029CR
Turning (lathe) F2 · Intermediate

The 3029CR targets makers and craftspeople with hands-on CNC experience: it requires independent sourcing and installation of stepper motors, drivers, a control box and software, plus full CNC system configuration. Its steel frame with ground ways and 5C spindle headstock provide the rigidity and repeatability needed for precision metalworking, but the compact footprint and 1/4 hp motor rating limit it to small-to-medium workpieces.
