XHORSE XMACHINE 3D | Desktop 5-Axis CNC Machine – Industrial Precision on Your Desktop  Delivery in Q2 2026

Power, Precision and Intelligence in a Compact Frame

The XHORSE XMACHINE 3D represents over a decade of R&D in high-precision multi-axis machining.
Built to combine mechanical rigidity, dynamic motion and micrometric accuracy, it’s designed for engineers, educators, designers, and small-scale manufacturers who require industrial-grade performance in a desktop footprint.

Its horizontal 5-axis simultaneous architecture provides full-motion freedom for machining complex parts from every angle — no manual repositioning, no loss of precision.
Compact yet robust (797 × 614 × 580 mm, ≈ 130 kg), the XMACHINE brings production-class capability to your workspace.

Mechanical Structure and Build

• Horizontal gantry construction in high-density cast steel for maximum rigidity and vibration damping.

• X/Y/Z linear axes use precision-ground ball screws, driven by self-developed XHORSE servo motors with absolute encoders.

• Travel ranges: X = 156 mm | Y = 203 mm | Z = 125 mm.

• Rotary axes A and C:

  • A-axis = –30° to +110° with harmonic reducer for angular stability.

  • C-axis = continuous 360° rotation via direct-drive motor.

• Rotary table Ø100 mm, max load 10 kg, concentricity ≤ 0.005 mm.

This kinematic design enables continuous multi-surface machining in a single setup, reducing clamping errors and boosting productivity.

Spindle and Dynamic Performance

• Spindle speed: up to 18 000 rpm, Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM).

• Active air-cooling system with side duct and custom wind shield for thermal stability.

• Rated power 2.2 kW delivers constant torque for aluminum, brass, engineering plastics, and hardwoods.

• Rapid traverse (X/Y/Z): ≥ 4000 mm/min for smooth, precise motion in complex toolpaths.

• EtherCAT protocol ensures real-time synchronization and sub-millisecond axis communication.

Automation and Intelligent Functions

• Automatic centering and workpiece measurement using optical sensors and wireless probing.

• Closed-loop axis calibration – dynamic error correction in under 5 minutes.

• Concealed automatic tool changer:

  • 6-position magazine integrated within the chassis,

  • automatic unfolding/retraction during operation,

  • reduces setup time and improves workflow efficiency.

• Automatic tool-length measurement and wear compensation extend tool life and ensure consistent results.

Together, these systems deliver a fully automated CNC experience that combines precision with productivity.

Control System – XMachine-NCS

Each unit includes the proprietary XMachine-NCS numerical control system, engineered by XHORSE for unmatched integration.

Core features:

• Intuitive graphical interface with real-time 3D simulation.

• RTCP (Rotating Tool Center Point) and 3 + 2 positioning support.

• Flexible multi-axis interpolation and advanced motion planning.

• Thermal and kinematic error compensation for long-term accuracy.

• Real-time visualization of toolpaths, feed rates, and cutting loads.

Fully compatible with major CAM software (Fusion 360, MasterCAM, SolidCAM, Powermill, etc.).
A dedicated XHORSE-CAM suite is under development for complete workflow integration.

Materials and Applications

Supported materials: aluminum, copper, brass, POM, ABS, PA, PMMA, wood, machinable wax, resins and composites.
