We have a HAAS 4th-Axis as an accessory to our vertical CNC machines that includes a chuck, collet closer and tailstock.  The 4th –Axis allows us to rotate a part horizontally in a machining center enabling us to machine at any degree around the part.  Our programmers will write the 4th-axis rotation into the program decreasing the amount of time and labor that would normally be required to complete a more complex component. This increases our versatility by allowing us to make more difficult parts and eliminate set-up, resulting in cost-savings that can be shared with the customer.

 

These components are a good fit for 4th axis machining.
