Makera Wins Desktop CNC Machine Company of the Year Award

MIDDLETOWN, Del., June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Makera, the pioneer of intelligent desktop CNC (Computer Numerical Control) solutions, proudly announced today that it has been named the Desktop CNC Machine Company of the Year for 2025 by Manufacturing Technology Insights. This award recognizes Makera's technology innovation, and commitment to redefining what desktop CNC machining can be in the years to come.

Makera's flagship CNC machines, the Carvera and Carvera Air, offer makers, DIYers, educators, scientists, and business owners the ability to fabricate their ideas in ways they never may have thought possible. By bringing high precision manufacturing tolerances into a desktop machine, anyone now has access to the types of production techniques formerly only accessible in an industrial setting.

And unlike other CNC milling machines, Makera sets out to be versatile by developing machines and software suitable for a range of projects and materials, from creating fixtures out of aluminum, to jewelry, wood engravings, carbon fiber drones, and even printed circuit boards. And thanks to the auto calibration and safety features unique to the Carvera and Carvera Air, anyone can learn to bring these resources into their workspace with greater ease.

It's because of these innovations, along with the commitment to providing high quality products and responsive resources and technical support to their customers that Manufacturing Technology Insights chose Makera for this year's award. This honor culminates the efforts Makera has made since its launch in 2021, and since its Founder and CEO Josh Zhang began to reimagine a Desktop CNC could be.

"This award is a testament to what our team and community of makers have built together since we started in 2019," said Josh Zhang, Founder and CEO of Makera. "We set out to create the most capable desktop CNC machines ever made, and we're honored to be recognized for that mission. But we're just getting started."

To make its cutting-edge technology even more accessible, Makera is also expanding its online retail channel for the US market. Starting June 5, 2025, the Carvera Air will be available on Amazon.com, bringing high-precision CNC milling machines and accessories within reach of an even broader audience. For a limited time, Makera is offering the Carvera Air at a special discount starting from $2,499, along with a complimentary Custom Tag Toolkit (claim with code S8TXMFAJ). This offer is valid through June 19, 2025. Business buyers will receive an additional $100 off, making it the perfect opportunity to elevate any workshop with industry-leading desktop CNC technology.

Since the debut of the Carvera in 2021, Makera set out to bring unmatched versatility, precision, and reliability into the workshop of all makers. With the release of the compact and more affordable Carvera Air, the launch of a more intuitive CAM software, and the expansion of its retail presence, Makera is continuing to invest in their commitment for making CNC machining accessible for everyone.

Makera cherishes its user community, which has been a vital driving force throughout the company's journey. To engage with its passionate users, Makera is launching the Makera Endless Creation Contest on Reddit, running from June 4 to July 3. Participants can join the contest here for a chance to win a $1,000 gift card.

This is just the beginning, an era for makers.
