The Carbide 3D Nomad 3 Desktop CNC Mill (HDPE) is the third major revision of the Nomad 883 that launched Carbide 3D. It features a new spindle design with angular contact bearings for enhanced rigidity and is equipped with a 130W Spindle motor capable of reaching a maximum 24k RPM.
This version of the Nomad 3 includes Carbide Copper for PCB machining, an MDF Wasteboard, endmills as well as a BitZero V2.
The BitZero for Nomad 3 is made specifically for the Nomad 3.
Nomad 3 includes the 3D CAM software MeshCAM for Nomad, to take your STL files and generate gcode without any additional CAM software. MeshCAM saves a proprietary gcode for the Nomad so no additional license code is required to use it with the Nomad 3, but it will not generate gcode for other machines.
This desktop mill also comes with Carbide Create 2D CAD/CAM software and Carbide Motion machine control software.
Lastly, all Nomad 3 will include a chip fan to put on their spindle and an interlock key. A Chip fan is super easy to use and helps push away the chips while machining. The interlock key is a safety feature that automatically stops the spindle when the door is open. Carbide Motion will also display a message that says “Door Open”. The interlock key mimics the door being closed so when a customer is setting zero on the stock material, the door can remain open without getting the message in Carbide Motion.
