Carvey comes with clamping hardware to secure materials to the waste board for cutting. The Smart
Clamp is the main L-shaped clamp located at the lower-left corner of the carving table and is secured by two hand-tightened bolts of the same length. This clamp has a sensor which allows your Carvey to automatically zero your Z axis to the top of whatever material you are using. It is vital that this clamp be used to secure your material on every Carving job. If you do not use the Smart Clamp, you risk damage to your machine.
In addition to the Smart Clamp, your Carvey is supplied with clamps which are secured to the threaded inserts of the waste board by hand-tightened bolts and are supported on the other side by stepped blocks.
We offer a complete guide for clamping materials in this section of the Carvey instructions.
