The DeskProto Multi-Axis edition, for rotary machining and more
In the Multi-Axis edition all DeskProto options are available: for 3-axis, 4-axis and 5-axis CNC machining. Especially the fourth axis support is strong: up to one continuous helix toolpath. The result is a CAM program that allows you to produce even the most complicated models. The extra features that DeskProto Multi-Axis offers (compared to the Expert Edition):- Continuous Rotation axis machining: during machining the part is rotated by the fourth axis
- Indexed Rotation axis machining: the fourth axis is used to machine the part from several sides
- Five-axis machining (indexed): the model can be machined from almost all sides
DeskProto Multi-Axis applications
The DeskProto Multi-Axis edition is meant for users needing more than three axes. Like model makers making complex models, jewelers needing a wax model, artists for a sculpture that needs to be machined from all sides, etc. DeskProto can be combined with any 3D CAD program, and with any CNC milling machine. Some examples of the extra options offered by this edition:![venus sculpture, 4-axis](https://www.deskproto.com/photos/venus-thumb.jpg)

Extra functionality in DeskProto Multi-Axis
The Multi-Axis edition includes all functions that are available in the Expert Edition. In addition you can create toolpath for 4-axis machines and for (some types of) 5-axis machines. So all Strategies shown on the Expert page are available, both for three-axis jobs and for indexed machining. The illustrations below shows the extra Strategies for continuous rotation.Available Rotation Strategies in DeskProto Multi-Axis:
