How thick of wood can a CNC router cut?


The thickness of wood a CNC router can cut depends on several factors, including the router's power, spindle speed, bit type, and feed rate. Generally:

  • Light-Duty CNC Routers (1–2 HP): Can cut up to 1–1.5 inches (25–38 mm) thick hardwood or 2 inches (50 mm) softwood in multiple passes.

  • Mid-Range CNC Routers (2–5 HP): Can handle 2–3 inches (50–76 mm) thick hardwood or thicker softwood.

  • Industrial CNC Routers (5+ HP): Can cut 3+ inches (76+ mm) thick hardwood or plywood, sometimes in a single pass.

For very thick materials, multiple passes are often necessary to maintain precision and avoid damaging the tool.
