The MultiCam 3-103-R is a 3000 Series CNC router from MultiCam Inc. of Irving, Texas, a builder whose straightforward, rugged gantry routers have made them a staple in sign, woodworking, cabinet, and plastics shops. This 2004 unit is a 3-axis moving-gantry CNC router with a 48 x 96 inch (4' x 8') vacuum hold-down table sized for full sheets of plywood, MDF, plastics, composites, and non-ferrous materials, with a 100 x 50 inch X/Y work area, 12 inches of Z travel, 1,700 ipm rapid traverse, 1,000 ipm cutting speed, rack and pinion X/Y drives, a ball screw Z axis, and +/- 0.001 inch repeatability. Cutting power comes from a PDS Colombo water-cooled spindle rated at 5.5 HP (4 kW) with a rated speed of 24,000 RPM, cooled by a Dynaflux Tig-er water chiller. An automatic tool changer with tool holders lets one program rough, finish, and profile without stopping for manual tool swaps. The machine runs on a MultiCam handheld pendant controller with a separate control cabinet and is wired for 230V, 32.5A service. The sale includes a full support package: a MultiCam TurboVac vacuum pump with hold-down on/off switch, a Fog Buster coolant mister for aluminum and other non-ferrous metals, a Powermatic PM1300TX 1.75 HP dust collector with TurboCone separator, a Husky 60-gallon vertical air compressor (3.7 HP, 155 PSI), a Champion CRH201 refrigerated air dryer (20 SCFM), and an air filter/regulator.
Compared with MultiCam's entry-level 1000 Series routers, which were typically set up for manual tool changes and lighter-duty work, the 3000 Series is MultiCam's step up into production routing. The 3-103-R pairs a heavier gantry platform with an automatic tool changer, a water-cooled high-frequency spindle, and full-sheet vacuum hold-down, so multi-tool jobs run in one setup instead of several. For a buyer moving up from a smaller or manual-change router, that means fewer interruptions, faster cycle-to-cycle turnaround, and the capacity to nest and cut full 4' x 8' sheets with a complete vacuum, dust, air, and coolant package already matched to the machine.
