Our best estimate for a cnc router in this class — not a quote from Masterwood. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Masterwood Project 400 is a pod-and-rail CNC router with 4,200 mm (165 in) of X travel, 1,300 mm (51 in) of Y and 300 mm (11.8 in) of Z. Masterwood's current lineup does not include it, and the listed figures have not been checked against a maker page. Treat them as a reference when inspecting a machine and confirm each one against its nameplate and documents.

The table is the point-to-point type with vacuum clamping on pods and rails. That lifts the workpiece clear of the table so its edges can be machined all round, at the cost of setting pod positions for each part family. A long X axis against 1,300 mm (51 in) of Y fits long, narrow workpieces better than wide sheets.

The spindle is listed at 9.0-13.0 kW (12-17.5 HP) with a speed range of 1,000-24,000 RPM, served by a 16 position tool changer that is optional up to 24. An integrated row boring unit is listed, so hole patterns do not have to be drilled one at a time by the main spindle. The aggregate head is optional, and it is the only row that mentions 5-axis capability; a machine without that head should not be assumed to have it.

The control is listed as Masterwood Maestro or PC-based control, so check which one a particular machine carries. Weight is 4,200 kg (9,259 lb) and the supply is 400 VAC 3-phase 50 Hz, which needs attention wherever the mains is not 50 Hz.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

4,200 mm (165 in) of X travel for long workpieces
Pod-and-rail vacuum clamping gives access to the edges of the part
Integrated row boring unit for multi-spindle drilling
Spindle speed range of 1,000-24,000 RPM with 9.0-13.0 kW (12-17.5 HP)
16 position tool changer, optional up to 24

Limitations

Not in Masterwood's current lineup, and the listed figures have not been checked against a maker page
The aggregate head, the only row that mentions 5-axis capability, is optional
Y travel of 1,300 mm (51 in) is narrow against 4,200 mm (165 in) of X
Electrical supply is listed as 400 VAC 3-phase 50 Hz only

Best For

Long, narrow workpieces within 4,200 mm (165 in) by 1,300 mm (51 in) Edge machining of parts held on pods and rails Drilling hole patterns with the integrated row boring unit Routing and drilling that needs up to 24,000 RPM

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the Masterwood Project 400 still listed by Masterwood?

No, Masterwood's current lineup does not include the Project 400, so it may be an older model. The figures on this page are the listed figures and have not been confirmed against a maker page; verify them on the machine being considered.

02 What are the travels of the Project 400?

The listed figures are 4,200 mm (165 in) in X, 1,300 mm (51 in) in Y and 300 mm (11.8 in) in Z. The table is a pod-and-rail (point-to-point) type with vacuum clamping, so usable Z also depends on the pod height and tool length.

03 Is the Project 400 a 5-axis machine?

Not as standard, according to the listed figures. The aggregate head row reads Optional (5-axis capability), and no other row mentions it. On an existing machine, check whether the aggregate head is fitted and what it can do before counting on that capability.

04 How does the Project 400 compare with the Project 300?

The Project 400 is listed with a 9.0-13.0 kW (12-17.5 HP) spindle and a weight of 4,200 kg (9,259 lb). The Project 300 is listed with a 15 kW (20 HP) electrospindle and approx. 6,000 kg (13,200 lbs). Neither table has been checked against a maker page.
