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

Overview

The MultiCam 1000 Series is a light gantry CNC router listed with a standard work area of 49 in (1,245 mm) by 97 in (2,464 mm), 6 in (152 mm) of Z and a 5–10 hp (3.7–7.5 kW) spindle. MultiCam no longer shows it in its current lineup. The listed figures come from an unconfirmed table, which makes them a guide for inspecting a used machine and nothing firmer.

The standard work area takes a four-by-eight sheet with a small margin. Larger options are noted, and the table also lists a 1524 x 3048 mm table size with travels of 3,048 mm and 1,524 mm, the five-by-ten format. Which of the two a particular machine has is easy to settle with a tape measure and worth settling early.

At approx. 1,800 lb (816 kg) this is a light machine, and the other rows are consistent with that. Spindle speed tops out at 18,000 RPM and feed rate at 1,200 in/min (30.5 m/min). Z is 6 in (152 mm), enough for sheet and thin slab but not for deep work. The control is the MultiCam e-Panel with a touchscreen.

By the listed figures it sits well below the 8000 Series, which is listed with 20–30 hp (14.9–22.4 kW), 24,000 RPM and approx. 8,000–12,000 lb (3,629–5,443 kg). The 1000 Series has a fraction of that mass and spindle power, and a lower top speed.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Is the MultiCam 1000 Series still made?

MultiCam no longer shows the 1000 Series in its current lineup, so it appears to be an older model. The listed figures are unconfirmed, and a used machine should be checked for its actual bed size, spindle and control.

02 What is the working area of the 1000 Series?

The standard work area is listed as 49 in (1,245 mm) by 97 in (2,464 mm) with 6 in (152 mm) of Z. Larger options are noted, and a 1524 x 3048 mm table size is also listed with travels of 3,048 mm and 1,524 mm and a Z travel of 152 mm.

03 What spindle does it have?

The spindle is listed at 5–10 hp (3.7–7.5 kW) with a maximum speed of 18,000 RPM. That is a range, so the power of the unit fitted to a given machine has to be read from its nameplate.

04 How does the 1000 Series compare with the 8000 Series?

The 8000 Series is listed with 20–30 hp (14.9–22.4 kW), 24,000 RPM and approx. 8,000–12,000 lb (3,629–5,443 kg). The 1000 Series is listed with 5–10 hp (3.7–7.5 kW), 18,000 RPM and approx. 1,800 lb (816 kg), so it is the lighter machine with the smaller spindle.
