CAMaster was an American manufacturer of CNC routers, founded in 2008 in Cartersville, Georgia. All CAMaster machines were designed and built in the USA with heavy all-steel welded frames, HSD Italian-made spindles, THK precision linear rails, and AC digital servo drives. The company offered what was at the time the industry's only two-year warranty and provided virtual technician live online support. CAMaster built a loyal following among woodworkers, sign makers, cabinet shops, and small manufacturers through its Stinger, Panther, and Cobra product lines before ceasing operations in late 2025. A significant number of CAMaster routers remain in active production use across North America, and the machines continue to hold value on the used market due to their quality construction and use of industry-standard components.

Stinger Series (Entry & Mid-Range)

The Stinger series was CAMaster's entry-level and mid-range CNC router lineup. The base Stinger is available in 4x4 and 4x8 ft table sizes with a 3.5 HP variable-speed router and heavy-duty steel frame construction. The Stinger II expands to 24 or 36-inch cutting widths. The Stinger III adds larger capacity with up to 24,000 RPM spindle speed. The Stinger ATC variant includes an automatic tool changer for multi-tool operations. Digital stepper drives with anti-backlash systems are standard, with optional servo upgrades, HSD spindle upgrades, vacuum hold-down, laser engraving, and rotary indexing lathe attachments available.

Panther Series (Industrial)

The Panther series is CAMaster's industrial-grade ATC router, available in 4x4, 4x8, and 5x10 ft configurations (PT-408, PT-508, PT-510). Standard features include a 5 or 6 HP HSD ATC spindle with 8-position automatic tool changer, helical rack and pinion drive, digital servo motors with planetary gearboxes, phenolic vacuum tabletop, and pop-up locating pins for quick material positioning. Optional features include tangential knives, vision registration cameras, and laser engravers.

Cobra Series (Heavy-Duty Production)

The Cobra and Cobra Elite are CAMaster's heavy-duty production routers built for high-volume manufacturing. Cobra Elite models feature HSD ATC spindles in 5 HP (ISO-30), 12 HP (ISO-30), or 16 HP (HSK-63F) configurations with 10-tool linear racks or rotary carousels. The Cobra Elite uses Yaskawa SmartCore CNC automation. All-steel welded construction with THK 25 mm precision rails ensures rigidity and accuracy under demanding continuous-duty production cycles. Drill banks (5 or 9 position) are available for high-speed boring operations.

What to Look for When Buying a Used CAMaster

CAMaster CNC routers are well-built American machines with quality components. With the manufacturer no longer in operation, careful inspection is especially important. Here is what to check.

On all models, check spindle and drives. On HSD spindle machines, test across the full RPM range and listen for bearing noise. On ATC models, cycle the tool changer through every position. On manual spindle models, verify the router runs true. Check rack-and-pinion or ball screw drives for backlash. Verify stepper or servo motor function. Run a test cut and measure dimensional accuracy.

Inspect the frame, rails, and table. Check THK linear rails and bearings for smooth motion without play. On vacuum tables, verify each zone holds vacuum. Check the phenolic tabletop for flatness. On T-slot tables, verify slot integrity. Inspect pop-up locating pins if equipped.

Verify the CNC controller and electronics. CAMaster machines use Yaskawa SmartCore (Cobra Elite), WinCNC, or other PC-based controllers depending on model and year. Confirm the controller boots and responds properly. Check all limit switches, home sensors, and emergency stops. Verify the software version and confirm you have access to any required license keys or activation codes.

Stinger Series

Stinger, Stinger II & Stinger III

The Stinger base model is a compact industrial router in 4x4 and 4x8 ft table sizes with a 3.5 HP variable-speed router, heavy-duty steel frame, and digital stepper drives with anti-backlash systems. The Stinger II expands cutting capability with a 3.5 HP spindle and 24 or 36-inch work areas. The Stinger III is the largest Stinger variant, with a 4x8 ft table, 3 HP HSD spindle at 24,000 RPM, and 7-inch Z-axis travel. All Stinger models can be upgraded with HSD spindles, vacuum hold-down, laser engravers, misting units, and rotary indexing lathes (supporting stock up to 6 inches diameter on the Stinger I, 10 inches on the Stinger II, and 12 inches on the Stinger III).

Stinger ATC

The Stinger ATC adds an integrated automatic tool changer to the Stinger platform with ball screw drives and a robust steel frame, enabling multi-tool operations without manual intervention. This model bridges the gap between the entry-level Stinger and the industrial Panther for shops that need tool change capability in a compact format.

Panther Series

The Panther PT-408, PT-508, and PT-510 (4x8, 5x8, and 5x10 ft) are industrial-grade ATC routers with 5 or 6 HP HSD air-cooled ATC spindles and 8-position automatic tool changers. Helical rack and pinion drives provide high acceleration and dimensional accuracy. Digital servo motors with planetary gearboxes deliver more power and speed than stepper-equipped models. Standard features include phenolic vacuum tabletops, pop-up locating pins, auto touch-off tool length measurement, and laser crosshair positioning. The Panther is the most popular CAMaster model for cabinet shops and production woodworking.

Cobra & Cobra Elite Series

The Cobra and Cobra Elite (CR-408, CR-505 and other configurations) are heavy-duty production routers with all-steel welded construction, THK 25 mm precision rails, and AC digital servos with absolute encoders. HSD ATC spindle options include 5 HP (ISO-30), 12 HP (ISO-30), and 16 HP (HSK-63F) with 10-tool linear racks or gantry-mounted rotary carousels. The Cobra Elite uses Yaskawa SmartCore CNC automation for enhanced processing capability. Drill banks (5 or 9 position) are available for high-speed boring. The Cobra series serves high-volume production in woodworking, plastics, aluminum, and composites.

Frequently Asked Questions About Used CAMaster Routers

Is CAMaster still in business?

No. CAMaster ceased operations in late 2025. However, a large number of CAMaster routers remain in active use across North America. Because CAMaster built machines with industry-standard components (HSD spindles, THK rails, Yaskawa drives), most parts and service needs can be met through independent CNC service providers and component suppliers.

Can I still get parts for a CAMaster router?

Yes. The key components in CAMaster machines are sourced from major global manufacturers: HSD spindles (Italy), THK linear rails and bearings (Japan), Yaskawa servo drives and controls, and standard electrical and pneumatic components. These parts are available through their respective manufacturers and authorized distributors. Independent CNC service shops can also support CAMaster machines.

Are used CAMaster routers reliable?

Yes. CAMaster machines were built in the USA with all-steel welded frames, precision components, and industrial-grade drives. Many units produced between 2008 and 2025 continue to operate productively. The heavy construction and quality components contribute to long service life with proper maintenance.

What should I inspect before buying a used CAMaster?

Check the spindle (runout, bearing noise, ATC function), drive system (backlash, servo response), linear rails (smoothness), vacuum table (zone integrity), CNC controller (boot, software), and all safety systems. Run test cuts to verify cut quality and dimensional accuracy.

What CAMaster models hold their value best?

Cobra Elite machines with 12 or 16 HP HSD ATC spindles hold the strongest values for production capability. Panther ATC routers maintain steady demand for cabinet and production shops. Stinger III and Stinger ATC models hold value as capable mid-range machines. Call (844) 478-8181 for current valuations.

What industries use CAMaster routers?

CAMaster machines serve woodworking, cabinet making, sign making, architectural millwork, furniture production, plastics fabrication, aluminum routing, composite processing, and educational institutions.
