We Are Makera !
We don't just build machines,
We build a world where Creativity Knows No Limits!
How It All Started
The idea behind Makera was born out of frustration.
In 2018, software engineer Josh stared at another ruined RC plane part - a victim of clunky software, flying sawdust, and ear-splitting noise.
The dream of effortless creation seemed impossible.
"Digital tools should empower creativity, not hinder it!"
Teaming up with two fellow makers, he launched Makera to reinvent desktop CNC machines, powerful vet intuitive tools for everyone.
The team dedicated two entire years to developing their first desktop CNC machine and finally launched Carvera, which rebuilt everything.
The name blends “Maker" and “Era," symbolizing a new age of accessible innovation through A and smart design.
Today, Makera's “Democratizing Technology" ethos empowers over one million creators qlobally-from Brooklyn jewelers to Los Angeles RC builders-proving that precision and simplicity can coexist.
The revolution? Just beginning.

Awards & Reviews
The Carvera Air Desktop CNC Is A Hobbyist's Dream Machine
The rotary attachment is likely the most exciting project illustrating the machine's most promising capability. It's the sort of thing that's generally not possible with a laser cutter or practical with a consumer-grade 3D printer.
