FAQ

How about the shipping fee and tax?

Carvera Air is a precision machine—solid, heavy, and delicate, with magnetic components. The shipping weight is approximately 50kg. While we cover part of the shipping cost and offer free shipping to some areas, additional shipping fees may apply for certain regions. For more details, visit our Shipping Policy.

What's the difference between Carvera Air and the original Carvera?

Carvera Air primarily aims to offer a similar solution that approaches Carvera's functionality and machining capabilities to customers with relatively limited budgets, especially those new to CNC.

The main differences are:

  • Auto tool changer (Carvera) VS quick tool changer (Carvera Air)
  • Bigger bed size (Carvera) VS smaller bed size (Carvera Air)
  • Integrated laser module (Carvera) VS optional laser module (Carvera Air)
  • Built-in vacuum system (Carvera) VS external vacuum system (Carvera Air)
  • In stock now (Carvera) VS will be available late this year (Carvera Air)

Carvera can be considered a premium option, while Air represents a more affordable choice.

I am new to CNC. How can I quickly get familiar with Carvera Air and make my projects?

CNC is quite a big topic, especially the CAD and CAM aspects. There are a lot of materials you can look at on the internet.

For the Carvera Air machine, we will provide a detailed instruction manual and example guide for new users to familiarize themselves with.

We are making step-by-step video tutorials on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Makera.

By joining our discussion group on Facebook or Discord, you can meet thousands of Carvera and Carvera Air owners and fans and get help and inspiration from each other.

Furthermore, we have a wiki knowledge base for more technical topics and detailed information.

I have CNC experience, so what should I know before using Carvera Air?

Review the instruction manual and follow the step-by-step example guide to finish the initial projects. You can learn quite quickly how to use Carvera Air.

What CAM software should Carvera Air use?

We recommend Makera CAM for the Carvera and Carvera Air as it has been carefully optimized for your machine, making them easier and more intuitive to use for both beginners and professionals.

Click here to download.

Have your own software preference? No worries! We play well with others! Fusion, VCarve, SolidWorks, and other popular CAM software solutions are fully supported. We're always listening to our users and expanding compatibility so you can design and create as you wish.

What CAM software to use for making PCBs?

We recommend Makera CAM for the Carvera and Carvera Air as it has been carefully optimized for your machine, making them easier and more intuitive to use for both beginners and professionals, and you can also use FlatCAM or CopperCAM to make PCBs.

Can Carvera Air handle Steel?

If you machine steel occasionally and don't care too much about the time, then the answer is Yes! You can get carbon steel and stainless steel milled with a clean finish at a relatively low speed.

Here is a Titanium Milling video on YouTube. Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CynRyyO4Gko.

But overall, we do not suggest milling steel or harder materials a lot. The Carvera Air was designed mainly for wood, plastic, and soft metals like aluminum and brass.

What is Carvera Air's working area?

The working area for 3 axis milling is: 30cm (X) * 20cm (Y) * 13cm (Z) / 11.8in * 7.9in * 5.1in, and the working area for 4 axis milling is: 9.2cm (Diameter) * 20cm (Length) / 3.6in * 7.9in. You can see other detailed specs on our page.

What is the voltage and input watt of Carvera Air?

Voltage: 100-120VAC / 200-240VAC @ 50/60Hz, max input power is 400 watts.

Which components seen in the video and on the webpage are included in the machine, and which are not? For example, the tablet holder and tablet, vacuum system, air assist system, etc.

The phone/tablet holder is included, but the tablet/phone is not. You can use your existing phone/tablet to operate it.

The dust collection hose and dust boot are included, but the external vacuum device is not included.

The air tube and air blower head are included, but the external air pump is not included.

Would you recommend suitable vacuum and air pump systems with Carvera Air?

1. We recommend the Makera Cyclone Dust Collector, purpose-built for long, continuous milling with Carvera and Carvera Air. Check here for more details>>

2. First, an air compressor is not essential, even when machining metals such as aluminum or copper. You can choose from almost any air compressor on the market. The Carvera air intake diameter is 8mm. Based on our experience and feedback from Carvera users, a pressure of 3.5 bar (50 psi) or higher is sufficient.
