A rotary 4th axis is available for the IMService desktop CNC router.

Due to customer requests, IMService has started to ship a rotary 4th
axis for the 12 x 12 x 4 inch servo router ($1995).

The rotary 4th axis is suitable for rotational carving and
engraving, easily cuts rings, flutes and spirals and also for 3D
rotary surface carving and inlay.

The new accessory is integrated into the DeskCNC based control
system, and mounts to the router's moving table.

The rotary axis has a 3.2 inch diameter by 12 inch length capacity
under the Router bridge. Contouring speed is in excess of 20 rpm,
with 7400 degrees per minute rotation, and .0015 degree servo
resolution.

The 4th axis option includes a 4 inch rotary table with right angle
fixture and a base plate with adjustable tailstock with solid and
live centers and also includes a 3.1 inch, 4 jaw self centering
chuck.

DeskCNC includes 3D rotary cam programming to develop carving
toolpaths directly from .stl file models.

A retrofit for existing machines is planned. Current customers may
contact our office for details.
