The Foundation
Flexible Manufacturing. Everyday Performance. The Foundation delivers production-grade capability with industrial components at a price that makes sense. Starting at $60,000 – everything included.
Industrial Components.
Honest Price.
Paired with industrial-grade motion components, closed-loop servos, and a proven CNC control platform, the Foundation delivers accurate, consistent cutting across a wide range of materials and applications. Whether you’re building cabinets, machining plastics, shaping foam, or producing light industrial parts.
10HP ISO30 Spindle.
Built for Versatility.
The 10HP ISO30 spindle is built for shops that need versatility, clean cutting, and dependable performance across a wide range of materials. The ISO30 interface provides secure tool holding and reduced vibration, improving surface finish and accuracy.
Beyond dependable power, the ISO30 system offers economical tooling options and straightforward maintenance, making it a strong fit for shops focused on flexibility and long-term reliability.
5+4 Drill Bank.
Speed Up Your Workflow.
A 5+4 drill bank is designed to speed up your workflow without adding complexity. With five vertical spindles and four horizontal spindles arranged around the most common cabinet and casework patterns, the Foundation can drill shelf pins, construction holes, and horizontal dowels in a single setup.
The benefits are straightforward: cleaner holes, faster processing, and less load on your main spindle. For cabinet shops, signmakers, and mixed-material environments that rely on consistent hole placement.
10HP Rotary Vane Vacuum.
Strong, Consistent Hold-Down.
Every Foundation Series machine comes equipped with a 10HP industrial rotary vane vacuum pump, delivering strong, consistent hold-down for cabinet parts, plastics, foam, and composite panels.
Rotary vane technology provides reliable suction across the entire sheet, helping reduce part movement and ensuring clean edges even at faster feed rates. For shops that need additional vacuum capacity, the Foundation can be upgraded with a second pump.
Everything.
The $60,000 price includes everything you need to start cutting. No add-on games.

3 Years. Because We Know What’s In It.
Built to a Purpose. Not a Price.
Front Range CNC was founded to raise expectations in an industry where too many machines are built to a price instead of a purpose. We focus on what shops actually need: rigidity, accuracy, dependable components, and support that shows up when you need it. No shortcuts. No surprises.
The Foundation Series is built with that same philosophy. It starts with industrial construction, closed-loop motion, reliable control hardware, and the standard features modern shops expect. Whether you’re cutting cabinets, plastics, foam, or custom parts, the Foundation gives you the capability and consistency to take on real production work.
