The accuracy of CNC router machines depends on several factors, including the machine's design, quality, components, and setup, but they are generally highly precise. Here's a breakdown:

Accuracy Range: Most CNC routers achieve accuracies between ±0.001 inches (0.025 mm) to ±0.005 inches (0.127 mm) for high-end models, while entry-level or hobbyist machines may have accuracies around ±0.01 inches (0.254 mm) or slightly less precise. Industrial-grade CNC routers with advanced components can reach tolerances as tight as ±0.0001 inches (0.0025 mm) in optimal conditions.

Factors Affecting Accuracy:

Machine Quality: Higher-end machines with robust frames, precision linear guides, and ball screws offer better accuracy than budget models with simpler components.

Tooling: The quality and condition of the cutting tool (e.g., sharpness, type) impact precision. Worn tools can reduce accuracy.

Material: Softer materials like wood or foam allow for higher precision than harder materials like metal, which may cause tool deflection.

Calibration and Setup: Proper calibration, secure fixturing, and minimal vibration are critical for maintaining accuracy.

Software and Programming: Errors in the design file or G-code can lead to inaccuracies, as the machine follows instructions exactly.

Environmental Factors: Temperature fluctuations or dust can affect performance, especially in poorly maintained setups.

Repeatability: 

CNC routers excel in repeatability, often achieving ±0.001 inches (0.025 mm) or better, meaning they can consistently replicate the same cut or pattern.
