CNC Piranha?

Post by 4DThinker »

Doing a quick patent search I stumbled across a trademark issued to NextWave Automation in July 2013. For "CNC PIRANHA".

No official word here, but perhaps the new features request is to solidify the features list that will show up in NextWave's next model? Sharks are the top predator in salt water. CNC Piranha their fresh water model?

There is already a Piranha CNC on the market by what looks like a U.K. company. Seems like that may end up being a conflict. Still, it would be nice to see a fresh design from NextWave.

Just as I thought. Next Wave has indeed announced a couple of new machines and one is called "CNC Shark Piranha". 12" x 12" cutting area.

The other is an 16" x 36" version for luthiers called the "CNC Shark Slim Line".

Both available Last week in September.

Thoughts?
