Shaper Origin Handheld CNC Router

Origin Gen 2 is the second generation of Shaper's revolutionary computer-assisted handheld router. Just follow the toolpath on the screen—provided you stay in the general area, the spindle will auto-correct 100x/second to keep the cutter within 1/100'' of the line. If you wander too far off, the bit will automatically retract to prevent damage. Since it is handheld, it's both portable and exceptionally space-efficient for small shops. Origin's touch-screen interface lets you select designs and cut dimensions on the fly, and it automatically calculates toolpaths—no programming required. Load designs via WiFi from the ShaperHub website, from a computer with the included USB stick, or design your project right on the screen. Dimension panels, cut complex shapes without templates, rout hinge mortises and cut joinery, all with just a few screen taps.

Features:

• No limitations on the workpiece envelope—perfect for large projects that wouldn't fit on a traditional CNC
• Compact and portable—stows neatly in the included Sys 5 T-Loc Systainer
• To determine its position, the router reads the patterned Shaper Tape (included), which you adhere to the cutting area
• Automatic cut correction for X, Y and Z axes (left, right and depth-of-cut)
• Automated Z-axis touch-off sensor sets Z-zero in just seconds
• Intuitive touch-screen interface with multi-touch full-color LCD
• Wi-Fi enabled for transfer of design files via ShaperHub, and for receiving software updates
• USB port allows easy offline transfer of design files
• Works with standard vector files (.SVG)
• On-tool design capabilities for ease of use
• Precision motor is produced by Festool to Shaper specifications
• Soft-start motor with overheating and overload safety shutoffs
• Dust port and shroud are designed around the spindle for optimal dust extraction
• Dust port fits most standard 27mm (35mm O.D.) and 36mm suction hoses (e.g. Festool, Fein)

Optional Shaper Plate works as a routing platform with a permanent domino pattern—perfect for small operations!
Shaper Plate functions as a universal template routing platform for your Shaper Origin. Its cut window measures 4-3/4'' x 6-1/4'', perfect for small scale work like routing hinge pockets for Euro hinges, mortises for butterfly keys, sets of 32mm system shelf holes and small carvings and engravings. The trademark domino pattern that Shaper uses to locate itself is permanently printed onto Shaper Plate, meaning you can get right to work without the time and expense of laying down tape.

Optional Workstation adds vertical clamping for mortise and tenon joints, box joints, and more!
Shaper Workstation features a precise vertical clamping surface and a table imprinted with the ShaperTape vision pattern, allowing you to machine small, precise parts like mortise and tenon joints and box joints. Beautifully engineered as a system to offer perfect 90° registration between the table and the clamping face, and across the clamping face using the retractable registration pins. Includes support arms, an angle fence and two clamps, which slide into T-slots in the face.

Optional 2-Year Pro Service: 
The basic version of Origin Gen 2 (#79015) includes 1-year service. Packages with the 2-year Pro Service Plan include live phone support and Rapid Replace protection for immediate shipping of a replacement unit in the event of a failure.
