Yeti SmartBench – a genuinely different CNC machine | Carry it with you or lift it onto a shelf — still full sheet capacity

Yeti SmartBench – a genuinely different CNC machine | Carry it with you or lift it onto a shelf — still full sheet capacity

4 years ago

The compact, mobile Yeti SmartBench CNC adapts to a great deal — saving both time and money

The Yeti SmartBench is the world's first movable full-sheet CNC router developed for woodworking. It is large in working area but small in physical size. The quality of the Yeti's work is high, and the machine is easy to move and to operate. With a price that is also quite reasonable, this CNC machine suits both woodworking professionals and enthusiasts.

With the Yeti SmartBench, working wood on a professional-grade CNC machine becomes possible for a growing group of woodworking professionals and enthusiasts. In its features and its price the SmartBench CNC suits both small and medium-sized woodworking businesses.

Woodworking's little giant makes work more efficient and opens up new kinds of jobs

The SmartBench is designed to improve productivity and to make new kinds of woodwork possible, both commercial and creative. With the Yeti CNC machine, companies can do some of the work themselves that they previously had to have done by subcontractors. The share of manual machining can be reduced by automating steps, which frees staff to concentrate on their other tasks. The SmartBench can make work possible that could not be carried out before. With the Yeti SmartBench time is saved and projects move forward faster.

A cost-effective Yeti CNC machine

With the SmartBench, production can be sped up and staff can concentrate on the most demanding tasks instead of routine work. Machining material gets faster, which shortens production times. When steps can be done in-house, the amount of subcontracting can be reduced. Automating work can reduce production waste. All of these help to bring costs down.

In woodworking businesses the SmartBench may make additional sales possible and in that way help increase income. A CNC machine developed for professional use makes it possible to do work that could not be carried out before. When the machine works tirelessly and even unattended, larger batches can be made.

The design of the SmartBench has focused on keeping the purchase price reasonable. Buying a Yeti SmartBench is therefore not as heavy an investment as buying other routers with comparable performance and features would be.

A versatile and compact CNC router

The Yeti SmartBench can be used for a wide variety of woodworking jobs. Because it is a full-sheet CNC machine, no project is too large for it. Jobs of different sizes do not require machines of their own.

Because the Yeti SmartBench is small and light, moving it is straightforward. It was designed from the outset to be mobile, and moving, setting up and commissioning it have all been made easy. The Yeti can easily be taken to a site and kept there only for as long as it is needed. The SmartBench also saves space: when it is not in use it can be folded into a small space and even lifted onto a wall.

An easy-to-use CNC for working wood

CNC machines used to be complicated to operate and learning to use them required training. The development of the Yeti SmartBench put considerable effort into making the machine easy to use, and it succeeded. The SmartBench has intuitive touchscreen control. The Yeti CNC machine can also be controlled wirelessly with the SmartManager remote monitoring software.

Videos, instructions and discussion groups to support use

Yeti has invested in user training. It has a free online CNC Academy with comprehensive instructions and further information on commissioning and using the machine. The instructions come both as detailed videos and as text and pictures. The videos can also be watched with Finnish subtitles.

For those interested in Yeti CNC machines there are discussion groups where you can ask about experiences, request advice and share your own. In February we set up a Finnish-language group on Facebook for owners of the machine and for those interested in it. Whether you already have a Yeti SmartBench, are planning to buy one, or are simply curious, join the groups and get more information from your peers.

Take a look at our Yeti SmartBench range

The Yeti SmartBench comes in three models with slightly different features: PrecisionPRO, Precision and Standard. All the models are compact, large in functionality and serious CNC machines in terms of the work they produce. You can buy the Yeti SmartBench from our webshop. Our customer service will also help you with questions about the Yeti.
