Shaper Origin combines computer-guided accuracy with hand-held familiarity. Cut with unparalleled precision, flexibility and efficiency. Origin is the world’s first computer-assisted hand-held plunge router. Avoid the envelope limits of traditional CNC machines and tackle projects at a wide range of scales with a single, compact tool. Over-The-Air software updates mean that, unlike other power tools, Origin gets better and more powerful the longer you own it. Use Origin’s intuitive touch screen interface to place designs in your workspace and set cut specs on the fly. Origin automatically calculates toolpaths for you - no programming required. Origin’s onboard computer moves the spindle 100 times per second to keep the cutting bit right on the toolpath. All you have to do is keep Origin close to the toolpath shown on the screen.
