Integration of Eco-design Principles in the Design and Building of a CNC Machine for Laboratory Applications
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The aim of this article is to present eco-innovative design and construction solutions, as well as the construction process for a laboratory station with a CNC milling machine. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a CNC milling machine, where structural and operational challenges were addressed through constructional modifications, material reinforcements, optimized assembly methods, and improved control system configuration. Additionally, computer simulations and strength analyses using modern tools bring environmental benefits, such as: reducing material waste by reducing failed attempts, reducing energy consumption by selecting optimal operating parameters, saving tools and extending their service life, reducing the carbon footprint associated with energy production and material transport.
