IS-A Series CNC Router Features

Industrial Precision Frame

ShopSabre CNC frames are FEA-engineered and tested. Created here in Lakeville, Minnesota, they are constructed from massive, oversized structural tube steel, aerospace milled for accuracy, and welded for rigidity. Our stacked and welded design adds rigidity, providing more floor contact and better vibration control. Internally, the large tubes are cross-braced and stiffened to increase lateral rigidity.

IS-A Series CNC Router Features

Mitsubishi Servo Motors

ShopSabre IS-A machines come standard with the top-rated motion control in the world, featuring Mitsubishi AC digital closed-loop servo motors for higher speeds, greater accuracy, and less maintenance. These self-monitoring motors include glass encoder technology, providing increased precision and performance under extreme conditions. The IS-A controller allows for on-the-fly control from the controller to the motor with true closed-loop communication to the machine controller (Mitsubishi M8 Series).

IS-A Series CNC Router Features

Aerospace Milling Technology

ShopSabre CNC frames go through some of the world’s most advanced processes to ensure accuracy, including precision milling of contact surfaces for bearing and rail placement, along with ball screw mounts. A machine can only be as precise as its foundation, and the frame on a ShopSabre is built to a tolerance above the competition.

IS-A Series CNC Router Features

Ball Screw Technology

ShopSabre IS-A machines come standard with 3-axis ball screw drives, with the Y-axis (long axis) providing twin screws and anti-whip technology to deliver 7 times more rigidity than competing machines, resulting in unprecedented performance. The ball screw technology used at ShopSabre is the latest in the industry, providing less backlash than rack-and-pinion systems. Thanks to our Whip Free Technology, it increases cutting accuracy and delivers superior edge finishes. When it comes to drive system technology, ball screw technology will outlast most comparable machines by 3 to 4 times with minimal maintenance required.

IS-A Series CNC Router Features

Mitsubishi M8 Series Controller

The controller featured on the IS-A is the world’s fastest CNC controller – the Mitsubishi M8 Series Controller. The ShopSabre IS-A delivers unbelievable performance in CNC routing that was previously only found in high-speed machining centers. The IS-A offers predictable and dependable control, largely due to the closed-loop nature of the communication between the servo motors and the controller. The cutting speed is noticeably faster compared to equally priced equipment. The IS-A controller combines the simplicity of our world-renowned CNC interface with the robust speed and communication of a dedicated control system. With the IS-A, you can expect increased machining speeds, better accuracy, and performance that outlasts the competition. The IS-A controller is indisputably better!

Vacuum Performance

The IS-A comes standard with the world’s most recognized vacuum pump, the VTLF 2.400 Becker Pump. Available with 1 or 2 pumps, depending on your needs, it produces superior hold-down strength without the exorbitant costs of much larger pumps. Additionally, the IS-A Series offers quick and easy zone control thanks to automated vacuum zones, bringing control to your fingertips with the push of a button. No more walking to the machine to open or close zones—this system automates and streamlines the process, allowing you to spend more time cutting and less time walking around. The IS-A vacuum table accommodates 4x8, 5x10, and 5x5 sheet sizes through the engineered Hi-Flow Vacuum Table, making it a true one-size-fits-all solution.

HiFlow Vacuum Technology

ShopSabre CNC HiFlow Vacuum Technology increases surface flow by as much as 50% over the competition, resulting in higher holding pressures, greater power, and better performance. Each vacuum table on the IS-A Series is milled at the factory by your machine’s cutting head, reducing the need for gaskets and bolts to hold the spoil board down. Our exclusive HiFlow Grid makes nested manufacturing a breeze.

Super Z Technology

ShopSabre IS-A machines come standard with ShopSabre’s Super Z Technology, which increases Z-axis speed for faster drilling and tool changes while maximizing rigidity during high-speed cutting. This results in superior edge finishes and part accuracy. Designed through in-house FEA Engineering, Super Z Technology is powered by a robust AC Closed Loop Z-axis servo motor and assisted by ShopSabre’s world-recognized Air Balancer Technology. Together, these features enhance the machine’s overall performance and dependability, delivering some of the quickest tool changes and drilling cycles in the class!

Precision Linear Guide Technology

ShopSabre CNC uses the latest in CNC bearing technology, featuring 25mm linear guide rails and bearings on all axes. Each axis is equipped with four large-body quad bearing rollers with wipers to enhance the machine’s performance. These bearings ensure surfaces stay clean while increasing rigidity under load, which results in improved performance and reduced maintenance, thanks in large part to the ball bearing technology.

Industrial Offload Capabilities

The offload push bar is engineered in-house to provide a more dependable and robust design. Heavy-duty yet simple in technology, the push bar provides a quicker and more reliable way to offload your machine, maximizing profits. Paired with our automated offload table, this feature is sure to boost throughput while reducing overhead demands—even in the busiest shops, the ShopSabre IS-A can help you reach new heights.

Bi - Directional Rotary ATC with at Cutting Head Design

Over the years, ShopSabre has continued to push the boundaries of tool-changing technology, and the IS-A is no different. Standard on this model is the ShopSabre Bi-Directional Rotary Carousel, capable of holding up to 12 tools and located directly at the cutting head for the quickest tool changes in the industry. This ATC option is the most advanced on the market. Unlike competitors’ systems, this ATC carousel is direct-drive through a planetary gear connection, providing bi-directional tool changing, allowing the carousel to travel the shortest distance to the next tool—regardless of direction. Like every ShopSabre system, this ATC system is simple, fast, and effective!
