TigerTec TR408 8x4 Servo CNC Router with PC+Tool Changer

The TR408ADTCZ is the high Z-axis variant of TigerTec's TR408AD flat-table CNC router, purpose-built for workshops that require serious cutting depth alongside production-grade speed and accuracy. The 400mm Z-axis makes full-depth SIP panel processing, large-format 3D carving, and true double-sided 3D production achievable on a single machine — work that a standard-travel router cannot accommodate.

At the core is a 9kW Italian HSD spindle on an 8-position pneumatic auto tool changer, driven by Japanese Yaskawa servo motors via rack and pinion drive with THK HSR25 linear bearings, double-wiped on X and Y axes. The base is fabricated from 8mm stress-relieved steel, rectified and ground as a single piece, whilst the heat-treated, annealed steel gantry delivers the geometric accuracy that makes consistent repeatability possible at this price point.

The 1,300 × 2,500mm table operates across 8 independent vacuum zones — vacuum pump optional — and accepts mechanical clamping as standard, allowing swift transition between nesting sheets and fixture-based work without reconfiguring the machine.

Control is via a dedicated Windows PC pre-loaded with NC Studio. The machine ships with a full commercial licence of Vectric VCarve Pro, covering 2D profiling, nesting, V-carving and 3D toolpaths. Vectric Aspire is available as an upgrade for advanced 3D modelling and relief work.

On-site commissioning and training are available, as is in-house installation at Scott and Sargeant's showroom. The machine is covered by a 12-month parts and labour warranty and a 24-month parts warranty.

Applications: woodworking, furniture manufacture, shopfitting, sign-making, van conversions, display work, Perspex and plastics cutting, scenery production, 2D and 3D carving, SIP panel processing, solid surface machining

Key Features:

— 400mm Z-axis travel — enables full-depth SIP panel processing, large-format 3D carving, and double-sided 3D production on a single machine
— 9kW Italian HSD ES951 spindle — professional-grade spindle delivering clean, consistent cuts across wood, composites, solid surface and plastics
— 8-position pneumatic auto tool changer — enables unattended multi-tool operations without manual intervention between cuts
— Japanese Yaskawa servo motors — precise positioning, high dynamic response and long service life across demanding production cycles
— THK HSR25 linear bearings with double wiper seals on X and Y axes — sustained accuracy and protection against contamination in dusty workshop environments
— Rack and pinion drive system — fast, accurate positioning across the full 1,300 × 2,500mm working envelope
— 8mm stress-relieved, rectified and ground steel base — machined as a single piece — exceptional rigidity that underpins positional repeatability throughout the machine's working life
