Maslow 4: Large format CNC routing made accessible

What about 100V for Japan?

I had no idea that was a thing - I guess the great thing about standards: so many to choose from :-(

That being said, to the very best of my knowledge (all 30 minutes of surfing around their project site :-D ) they only recommend the Dewalt routers, but I'd bet it would work just fine with whatever local router you could get at your Japanese hardware store that is already set up for 100V

It's just a cheap brushed motor, it'll run at 100V just fine...

The Dewalt recommendation is pretty strong. The router needs to be the right size to be clamped into the machine. There are some people on the forums who have had luck adapting a proper CNC cutting head, but you won't find that down at your local hardware store.

It’s 2024. You can buy a voltage/phase converter off of aliexpress and convert any random input voltage and phase to any random output voltage and phase for a pretty trivial expense. I’m using a 5kW one to run a 208v 3 phase motor off of 220v one phase in my shop, it cost maybe $100 or so.

Considering it uses a readily available off the shelf router, you can presumably get the Japanese version. I suspect the Japanese version is probably using the same motor as the US version.

Not sure what you are implying with that. Not everyone is an electronics expert.

It’s far past time to become one, or to be left behind.
