Genmitsu 4040-PRO CNC Router vs Genmitsu 4040-PRO MAX CNC Router

Buy the 4040-PRO MAX if you plan to cut aluminum, harder woods or thick stock, or if you want a machine that stays rigid under heavy loads. Buy the standard 4040-PRO if you mainly carve wood and want the lighter, simpler machine with a 75W spindle that owners say handles everyday projects well. The MAX adds a 710W spindle, a reinforced spoilboard and 100mm pass height; the PRO keeps the same 400x400x78mm work area in a lighter 20.8kg frame. Owners of the PRO praise its rigidity and mod-ability, and the MAX is the same platform with the weak points addressed.

• Choose the Genmitsu 4040-PRO if you are carving wood and soft materials, want a lighter machine that is easy to move and modify, and do not need to cut aluminum or thick stock.
• Choose the Genmitsu 4040-PRO MAX if you plan to mill aluminum, hardwoods or tall workpieces, or want a stiffer spoilboard and a spindle that will not bog down on long jobs.
