The 4-axis module for the MAKERA Carvera Air™ significantly expands CNC milling capabilities and enables simultaneous four-axis machining – ideal for rotary (cylindrical) parts, double-sided projects, and complex 3D shapes. Thanks to the harmonic drive with minimal backlash, you get high precision and smooth operation when working with wood, plastic, and non-ferrous metals.
The Carvera Air™ 4-axis module (harmonic drive version) is designed exclusively for the MAKERA Carvera Air™ CNC mill and takes production capabilities from standard 3-axis projects to detailed 3D machining. It enables smooth simultaneous movement in four axes, making it easy to create shapes and details that were difficult to achieve in the standard configuration.
Main benefits and uses:
- Machining cylindrical and rotary parts (working around the material’s circumference)
- Double-sided machining and more accurate continuation of operations
- More realistic 3D models thanks to simultaneous 4-axis work
- High precision thanks to a harmonic (strain-wave) gear drive with minimal backlash
- Support for well-known solutions: MakeraCAM and compatibility with software such as Fusion 360 and VCarve
Simple configuration and operation builds on Carvera Air™ features such as quick tool changes, automatic probing, and a positioning system with a home point. This reduces setup time and lowers the risk of mistakes during job preparation.
