ost CNC shops in Portugal work with beds between 1.2×2.4 m and 1.5×3.0 m. That sounds like enough — right up until your project needs a larger panel, or has artwork that doesn't fit in one piece.
The usual workaround is to split the job and assemble later. That creates three problems:
- Visible seam lines — no matter how careful the assembly, the join is there. On signage and 3D lettering that kills the visual impact.
- Misalignment risk — every cut has its tolerance. Stack several parts together and the errors compound visibly.
- More time, more cost — assembly means extra hours, fasteners, reinforcements and often additional finishing to hide the joins.
With our 3.1 × 2.1 m bed, most projects run through in a single pass. The result is a single, clean, ready-to-install piece — usually cheaper than the split version you'd get elsewhere.
