Overview

Multi-Axis CNC Machining (3 / 4 / 5 Axis)

Multi-axis machining moves the tool and part through four or five simultaneous axes, reaching complex contours, undercuts and angled features that fixed 3-axis machining cannot.

Marcus uses multi-axis machining for demanding components where geometry, finish and single-setup accuracy are critical.
