Master carpenter Tingander Oy Experience with the YETI SmartBench CNC milling machine

4 years ago

Master carpenter Tingander Oy makes high-quality and individual custom-made and design furniture

For Eetu Tingander, the profession of carpenter was evident at the age of 6, and when she graduated she was the youngest carpenter in Finland ever. For the first 12 years of his career, he worked as a carpenter in several companies until 2016, when he founded Mestaripuuseppä Tingander Oy. Today, the company employs 4 skilled carpenters in addition to him.

Making a company that makes custom-made and design furniture combines the traditions of wood craft and modern working methods. In addition to nurturing traditions, important values ??are creativity, high quality, ecology and sustainability. The company's staff is excited when there are constantly finer and more challenging jobs ahead.

The majority of sales come from bespoke work for private customers, such as stairs, saunas and kitchen furniture. In addition, there is its own Tingander Collection, some of which are made in series and some to size. For example, the height of the tables is constant, but the width and length are determined according to the customer's wishes. The collection is constantly being expanded, and the LOHKARE benches that arrived at the beginning of the year have aroused great interest.


Reasons to choose YETI SmartBench: 3D CAD compatibility, compact size and reasonable price

At the master carpenter's workshop in Tingander, YETI SmartBench was commissioned in January 2021. The acquisition of a CNC milling machine had been considered for a long time, but no suitable alternative had been found.

With Tingander, which invests in modernizing working methods, 3D drawing has increased significantly. They use Fusion 360 3D CAD software, due to the requirements of which many older CNC machines did not have enough technology for them. Instead, the Fusion-compatible YETI SmartBench was quite well suited to their needs.

Another significant factor in favor of the YETI SmartBench was the compact size and mobility of the machine. There was no need to install protective mats or separate railings for the machine in the workshop. In addition, the machine can be moved to the side when not in use. As the workshop in Tingander is quite small, less than 400 m2, the need for space is of great importance in the choice of equipment.

Even when the price of the YETI SmartBench was appropriate, it was easy to make a final purchase decision.

The YETI SmartBench is capable of high quality results and is comfortable to use

The YETI SmartBench CNC mill has been in use at Tingander for almost 1.5 years and the experience has been good. The use of the machine varies according to orders and work, but it is used almost weekly.
YETI CNC makes an accurate and high-quality imprint that meets Tingander's high quality standards.

Special thanks to YETI for being an open-ended machine. The material to be machined can be fed through the machine, so that even long workpieces can be milled whole by moving the workpiece in between. For example, the femur of the staircase may be 6 m long, in which case a through-feed is a necessary feature. From the point of view of space use, it is convenient that even a large piece can be milled with a machine that is only 2.5 m long.

YETI SmartBench is a comfortable machine to use, it is simple and easy to use. Its interface is very good and clear. In addition, YETI works well with Fusion 360 3D CAD software.

For Tingander, the performance of the YETI is mainly adequate, although for some jobs the machine should be more efficient. The YETI is a good CNC milling machine as long as it does the job for its power. Milling of softer birch plywood is comfortable. The processing of oak and other materials that require harder power is also successful, as long as there is enough time for the work. The YETI is slow at low power, but after starting work, the machine operates independently without supervision. So it is suitable for a workshop where the production capacity is not very large.

Despite the demanding work, YETI has withstood Tingander well and is really satisfied with it. It has been said at Tingander Oy that if a more efficient version of the YETI SmartBench CNC becomes available on the market, it would definitely be available for purchase.

Master carpenter Tingander's feedback from Nettiverstas: At Nettiverstas we have got high quality products and a genuine desire to help customers  

Carpenter and entrepreneur Eetu Tingander is satisfied with the service he received from Nettiversta and the smoothness of the cooperation.

“The quality of the products from Nettiverstas has been known. I have already ordered some machines from there before acquiring YETI. There are Festools and other machines that are generally known for their quality, ”says Eetu Tingander.

“The online customer service is really good and expert. There is a genuine desire to help the customer. Yes, I liked it. Questions about YETI, for example, have always been answered, even if the machine is new to the market. The service has been very good in every way. ”

Frequently asked questions

Why did Tingander choose the YETI SmartBench?

Three reasons: compatibility with Fusion 360, compact size and a suitable price. The technology in many older CNC machines could not meet their 3D drawing requirements.

What does pass-through feeding make possible?

The YETI is open at both ends, so material can be fed through the machine. Even long pieces, such as 6-metre stair strings, can be machined in one piece by moving the workpiece between passes — even though the machine itself is only 2.5 metres long.

Does the machine need a safety zone in the workshop?

No. The workshop needed no safety mats or separate guard rails, and the machine can be moved aside when not in use.

Is the YETI powerful enough for professional use?

Mainly yes. Birch plywood machines nicely, and oak and other harder materials work as long as enough time is allowed. The machine is slow because its power is modest, but it runs unattended once a job has been started.
