(KME: Orange, CA) -- KME CNC is offering a revolutionary way to utilize five-axis positioning on virtually any machine. All that is required is one M-Code, no matter how many indexers are involved.

We specialize in turning three-axis vertical machining centers (VMCs) or four-axis horizontal machining centers (HMCs) into five-axis production machines. By integrating those systems, we essentially help companies save machining time as well as costs. In some cases, some companies were able to double their overall production by cutting their machining times by more than half.
