Carbon fibre sheets for Snapmaker 2.0

Snapmaker 2.0 - 3 in 1 is a multifunctional modular device that includes three modules that turn it into:

• FDM 3D printer.
• CNC machining machine.
• Laser engraving and cutting machine.

The CNC machining module turns the Snapmaker 2.0 3-in-1 into a powerful machining machine with which the user can carve or cut hardwood, PCB, acrylic, POM, carbon fibre sheet and many other materials.

Snapmaker offers some of the most commonly used materials for CNC machining in practical ready-to-use formats. Among these materials is carbon fibre sheet.

Carbon fibre is a fibre made by joining thousands of carbon filaments. Carbon fibre has mechanical properties similar to steel, and is as light as wood or plastic. It is also more resistant to impact than steel.

In the case of Snapmaker carbon fibre sheets, the carbon fibres are aligned in the same direction, resin infiltrated and hardened. These sheets maintain the outstanding properties of carbon fibre:

• Lightweight.
• Impact resistance.
• Flexibility.
• Resistance to wear and tear.
• Corrosion resistance.

Because of all these characteristics, carbon fibre sheets are an ideal choice for CNC cutting and milling in applications that require good mechanical properties and high lightness, such as drone manufacturing.

The carbon fibre sheets come in packs of 3 and are available in one size only, and are compatible with Snapmaker 2.0 A150, A250 and A350.
