Product Introduction

  • The Genmitsu 4th Axis Rotary Module Kit is an innovative upgrade that allows your CNC router to carve from different angles and positions or with the right software, full 3D rotary carving. With its high-torque NEMA17 Planetary Geared Stepper Motor, 10:1 reduction ratio, and precise control capabilities, the kit enables the creation of complex parts with curved or angled features that are not achievable with a traditional 3-axis CNC machine. This drop-in upgrade opens up a world of possibilities for CNC enthusiasts looking to expand their capabilities and create more intricate shapes and contours in a workpiece.
  • To use the 4th axis, G-code must be sent using an offline controller, which should be ordered together with the 4th axis for proper functionality.
  • For the 4040-PRO, 4040-PRO MAX and 4040 Reno, an offline controller is needed, the 3030-PROVer Max comes with the offline controller already installed.

4th Axis CNC Rotary Module Kit for 4040-PRO, 3030-PROVer MAX Details

  • Discover the Possibilities: The Genmitsu 4th Axis Rotary Module Kit upgrades your 4040-PRO and 3030-PROVer MAX CNC machines, enabling multi-angle carving and full rotary carving with the right software, using an offline controller (ASIN: B0C582HQ6Z) for G-code transmission.
  • NEMA17 Planetary Geared Stepper Motor: The NEMA17 motor delivers high torque, surpassing belt-driven rotary modules, for precise and forceful workpiece rotation.
  • Versatile Dimensions: With a 50mm center height, 86mm total height, and material length ranges of 10-100mm with tailstock or 10-200mm without, plus a 2-50mm diameter capacity, it adapts to diverse project needs.
  • Precision Control: A 10:1 reduction ratio provides a minimum angle of 0.1° and a maximum speed of 300° per second, ensuring precise and fast operation
  • .Software & Controller: Requires CAD/CAM software like Fusion 360 or Vectric (not free) for 4th axis toolpaths, and an offline controller (ordered separately for 4040-PRO) to send G-code for proper functionality.

Reviews & QA

Reviews & QA

Q: Which machines can this 4th axis be compatible with?
A: Currently, it can only be used on 4040-PRO, 4040-PRO MAX, 4040 Reno and 3030-PROVer MAX 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. Please choose this rotary module 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.
