MIDDLETOWN, Del. , May 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the success of the original Carvera CNC machine, Makera is making headlines again with the launch of Carvera Air on Kickstarter . This new, more affordable desktop CNC has set a record as the most funded campaign in the "Fabrication Tools" category over Kickstarter's 15-year history, with nearly $3 million raised from over 1,800 backers.
Carvera Air is only available on Kickstarter until May 10, 2024 , with early bird rewards offering significant savings compared to the retail price.
Carvera Air, designed to be accessible without compromising on functionality, offers features like a quick tool changer, optional laser module, auto probing, leveling, and an advanced software suite—all starting at a Kickstarter price of $1,399 (MSRP: $2,199 ).
Makera introduced the Carvera Air to make CNC milling straightforward and affordable. The machine supports a wide range of materials, from plastics to metals such as aluminum, brass, copper, and even steel. It's also adept at producing double-sided PCBs at home, with an optional PCB kit enhancing its versatility.
The device simplifies setup with features like auto probing and leveling, making it user-friendly for both beginners and seasoned makers. These features reduce both time and complexity, ensuring an efficient workflow.
Makera's journey began with a Kickstarter campaign for the original Carvera machine back in 2021, which raised over $1.7 million . With the Carvera Air now on track to surpass $3million , it breaks the previous record set by its predecessor, highlighting the growing demand and trust in Makera's products.
The company, founded by engineer Josh Zhang and headquartered in Delaware, USA , focuses on robust customer support and warranty services globally, while maintaining R&D and manufacturing operations in Beijing .
