It's a great choice for anyone who wants to make a living with their CNC machine or who wants to push their machine to the limit. Looking for a larger machine? Check out the Shapeoko 5.1 Pro 4x4 and 4x2. Looking for a cost-effective machine with higher performance? Check out the Shapeoko 5.1 Pro 2x2. NOTE: Photos above are from a pre-production machine. The final product will be cosmetically different. Photos show our optional Carbide Compact Router (not included). Overview Specs What's Included FAQ Warranty and Support Introducing Shapeoko Pro Shapeoko Pro has everything you've come to love from Shapeoko, plus... 15mm Linear Rails Linear rails provide greater rigidity than the V-wheels used on the Shapeoko 4 so you can push Shapeoko Pro harder for more productivity. 15mm Belts Our new, wider belts are over 60% stiffer than the 9mm belts used in Shapeoko 3. Inductive Homing Switches No moving parts and no contact mean these switches are more durable in even the roughest environments. New Electronics A shop is a difficult place for precision equipment but our new V3 electronics are more resistant to electromagnetic interference and static discharge than ever. Integrated T-slot Table The Hybrid Table on Shapeoko Pro gives you almost unlimited workholding options right out of the box. Fully-Supported Y Extrusions Our extrusions have always been overbuilt, even for a much bigger machine, but the Y extrusions are now fully supported by the Hybrid Table, making Shapeoko Pro a much more rigid machine than anything we've ever made before. Integrated BitSetter The BitSetter makes tool changes a breeze. You'll never want to go back to a machine without it. Leadscrew-Driven Z-axis Shapeoko Pro uses our Z-Plus Z-axis assembly that's leadscrew-driven with heavy-duty linear bearings. Precision-Machined End Plates All of the plates on Shapeoko Pro are machined aluminum for better precision, and let's admit, they look way cooler. New, More Rigid Router Mount We made the router mount thicker to reduce deflection of the router during heavy cuts. Dust Boot Included Our Sweepy 65mm V2 Dust Boot is included with Shapeoko Pro to keep your shop clean and your machine is good working condition. CAD/CAM Software is Included All Carbide 3D machines include Carbide Create Core, our full-featured 2D design and machining program, saving you hundreds of dollars on third-party software. Whether you're starting from a blank page, or loading a design from the web, Carbide Create has everything you need for your projects. It also comes with a comprehensive video training library to get you up and running quickly. Because we wrote it and support it, you won't be pointed to another company if you have problems with a project. Carbide Create runs on your Windows or Mac computer, and you can install it on as many computers as you need to. Do you have your own CAD/CAM software? No problem, our machines also accept standard G-code, so you can use any software you like. Spindles and Routers Shapeoko Pro uses a trim router as a spindle. We recommend our Carbide Compact Router, but any router with a 65mm diameter, like the Makita RT0701C, will work. The Carbide Compact Router is designed for 110V operation, so if you're in a country with 220V power, you should grab a Makita RT0700C locally. If you're looking for more power, you can upgrade to our Carbide VFD Spindle. Shapeoko Pro vs. Shapeoko 5.1 Pro The Shapeoko Pro and Shapeoko 5.1 Pro are totally different machines so itemized comparisons are difficult. Here's a quick overview: The Shapeoko 5.1 Pro was created to be a high-performance CNC router based on ballscews and heavy-duty linear rails. This extra rigidity and precision means you can push the machine harder, while getting more accurate parts. In contrast, Shapeoko Pro was designed to deliver maximum value in a CNC router. Both can run all day, every day, cranking out large parts. Which one is right for you? If you're looking for a good balance of performance and price, Shapeoko Pro is the way to go. It's capable of running all day and turning out great parts. If you're looking for maximum performance and accuracy, get the Shapeoko 5.1 Pro. If you'd like to work with full 4' wide sheets, the Shapeoko 5.1 Pro 4x4 and 4x2 are the way to go. Sizes: For full width sheets, look at the Shapeoko 5.1 Pro is 4x4 and 4x2 sizes. For a machine that fits in any shop, look at the Shapeoko 5.1 Pro 2x2.

Frequently-Asked Questions ▼How long does it take to assemble a Shapeoko Pro? Shapeoko takes 2-3 hours to assemble. Most of that time is spent on the Hybrid Table, which has a lot of screws, but the payoff is a rigid machine with great workholding. ▼Can Shapeoko Pro run 3D toolpaths? Yes! Shapeoko can run 2D or 3D toolpaths with all motors moving simultaneously. ▼How loud is Shapeoko? Shapeoko itself is very quiet. All of the noise comes from the spindle (a trim router) and the shop vacuum. ▼Can I upgrade the size of my Shapeoko Pro? You cannot upgrade the size of a Shapeoko Pro. Upgrading from one size to another doesn't save much money compared to the price of a new machine. ▼What spindles can Shapeoko Pro use? Shapeoko Pro and use any 65mm spindle including the Carbide Compact Router, Makita RT0701C trim router, or our VFD spindles. ▼Is Shapeoko compatible with Vectric software? We have a lot of users running Vectric software with their Shapeoko. See more here. ▼Is Shapeoko compatible with Fusion 360? Fusion 360 comes with a Carbide 3D post processor that works with Shapeoko. See more here. ▼Can Shapeoko cut wood? Shapeoko can cut any type of wood from pine, to MDF, to hardwoods like white oak. ▼Can Shapeoko cut plastic? Shapeoko can cut any common plastic including ABS, acrylic, polycarbonate, Delrin, HDPE, and PEEK ▼Can Shapeoko cut aluminum? Shapeoko can cut aluminum but it will cut slower than wood and plastic so you'll want to take your time with it. ▼Can Shapeoko cut brass? Shapeoko can cut brass but it will cut slower than wood, plastic and aluminum so you'll need to take your time with it. ▼Can Shapeoko cut metal? Shapeoko can cut brass and aluminum but harder metals, like steel or stainless steel, are not recommended. We have users that have done it, but cutting steel takes a lot more skill and experience. ▼Is the software free?
