Click on the hotspots below to learn about Reis work tables
Shown here is the most basic table top option. This table top forms a strong and stable surface. This particular model has seen considerable use but has maintained its structural integrity. Solid tabletops and custom logos are also available.
This table includes the mounted power strip optional add-on. The single power strip provides surge protection for up to six power tools, lights, and more, eliminating the need for a mess of extension cords. Note: this option does not replace a breaker system.
Vises are a must for a well equipped work table! Since all Reis Engineering work tables are made to suit the needs of your work station, please specify if you have a specific brand or size of vise in mind. The vise add-on option includes custom vise installation.
When customizing your table order, consider a tool rack! Tool racks reduce clutter on the table and put your most important tools right in front of you. As with the rest of your order, please specify your size, material, and number of hooks preferences.
All work tables include a lower storage area, perfect for stowing extra materials and supplies for future projects. When requesting a quote, include your desired layer installation height. Extra layers can be added for additonal cost.

This router is the cutting tool. The bit spins at speeds exceeding 35,000 rotations per minute and can cut both vertically and horizontally. Due to the moving gantry system, the router can be precisely moved in all three dimensions.
The horizontal bar labelled "Reis" is the gantry arm. It is moved by 2 motors to form the x-axis. The z-axis is moved along the gantry to form the y-axis motion. The leadscrew is visible above the arm.
These are the electronic components that interface with the computer and send electrical pulses to move the stepper motors. The larger box is the transformer and the three hanging chips (fourth chip not visible) are the motor drivers.
This computer is the brain of the CNC machine. The operator draws the desired 3D object and uses the EMC2 software to compute the optimal cutting profile. During the cutting process, the computer sends commands in real-time to the electronic interface.
This view shows one of the linear bearing blocks. This particular block forms one of the x-axes. The block runs along tracks cut into three sides of the lumber rail as it is driven by a central leadscrew.
