Description
4th Axis CNC Rotary Module Kit for 4040-PRO, 3030-PROVer MAX
complex shapes and contours in a workpiece. While a false 4th-axis system that utilizes Y-axis or X-axis
movement
to interact on the top centerline of the object cannot produce complex models.
Superior Performances
the market.
Precise Control
of 0.1° and a maximum angular speed of
300° per second.
Simple Length Adjustment
flexibility in all your CNC projects.
Software & Controller
Vectric and an offline controller for G-code.

FAQ
Q: Which machines can this 4th axis be compatible with?
A: Currently, it can only be used on 4040-PRO CNC Router and needs to work with an offline controller to send the
Gcode.
Q: Is this compatible with the PROVerXL 4030?
A: No, it is a true 4th axis, offering full functionality in XYZ and A axes and it requires the appropriate control
board to operate. We are actively working on developing a 4th axis specifically designed for the PROVerXL 4030
machine.
Q: What is the difference between a “true” 4th axis and a “fake” one?
A: A true 4th axis is a rotary axis that allows for continuous rotation, making it possible to machine complex
curves and shapes accurately. A fake 4th Axis, on the other hand, is a simple indexer that can only rotate to
predetermined positions.
