Shaper BenchPilot

Shaper BenchPilot

Tired of driving Origin around? BenchPilot enables automated, hands-free cutting for Origin (Gen1 and Gen2) so you can focus on other tasks at hand. Clip Origin into BenchPilot and let it drive Origin from point A to point B, while Origin continues to handle the small precision movements. Think of it like autopilot for Origin.

Dimensioned and sized to fit perfectly with Shaper Workstation, BenchPilot creates a gantry-like system with horizontal and vertical milling capabilities – flexible for cutting joinery, inlays, intricate engravings, or profiles. It can also be mounted without Workstation and fit directly to your bench. It’s great for batch work or simply tedious and time-consuming jobs. Best of all, it doesn’t require complicated software, g-code, or other types of CNC programming to operate. If you know how to operate Origin, you’ll know how to operate BenchPilot.

Shelf Upgrade Kit

The Shelf Upgrade Kit maximizes the horizontal cutting area with Workstation. With its adjustable support leg, the Shelf Upgrade Kit helps maintain a flat and coplanar surface with the top of Workstation. This large shelf is over 3X bigger than the Shelf Assembly included with Workstation, making it a great candidate when you want to maximize the cuttable area with Workstation. The Shelf Upgrade Kit requires the Workstation, which is not included.

Packages

We offer the Bench Pilot by itself or with the Shelf upgrade Kit. We also offer thoses kits with the Workstation.
