Our PRS5 Standard series of full-sized gantry machines provides an affordable gateway for those who are ready to get started with CNC productivity. Ideal for moderate volume production shops, educational settings, hobbyists, sign makers, and woodworkers, the ShopBot PRS5 Standard CNC is capable of cutting, 3D carving, drilling, or machining a variety of materials—including wood, plastic, high density foam, and aluminum.
The PRS5 Standard uses super-tough motors with low-backlash gear heads, and open-loop Gecko stepper motor drivers to deliver power, high step resolution, and fast, smooth cutting.
The table of the PRS5 is a streamlined, modular design that emphasizes stability and accessibility. Table sides and rails are level with the tool bed so materials can be loaded and unloaded easily. All PRS5 Standard gantry tools are available with 8” of Z travel. Table sizes are available from 48” – 96” and gantry beam widths are from 48” – 60”. Custom table sizes, accessories and add-ons are available, including metric bits and collets.

While there are endless possibilities of what you can do with the ShopBot PRSstandard, here are a few examples of areas where people are putting their CNC tool to use:
Cabinet Making
With CNC, cabinetmakers can drill shelf pin holes, cut rabbets and dados, and profile-cut a completed panel. The operator only needs to handle the full sheet once to load the machine, and then remove the perfectly cut parts when complete.

Theatres & Museums
Realize your team’s aesthetic vision and go quickly from hand drawing to CAD design to full-size scenery panels. Complexity is easily incorporated when using CNC, so you can execute all kinds of ideas—including creating components in 3D.

Sign Making
Sign makers are using CNC for 3D carving, V-bit carving, profile contouring, fluting, and engraving. It also provides them with the opportunity to cut their own channel letter components, frames, posts, and borders in-house.
