| Number of Axes | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| 3-axis | Routers have three moving axes (X, Y, and Z), typically in a gantry configuration. | ||
| 4-axis | Routers have four moving axes, typically in a gantry configuration. An additional moving axis complements the X, Y, and Z axes. | ||
| 5-axis | Routers have five moving axes, typically in a gantry configuration. In addition to the X, Y, and Z axes, the router head has rotary and angular axes. | ||
| 6-axis | Six-axis routers are usually articulated robots with a router head attachment. | ||
| Other | Other unlisted number of axes. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||
| |||
| Frame Construction | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Articulated Robot | Routers are attached to an articulated robot. Articulated robots have arms with three rotary joints. | ||
| C-Frame | C-frame routers have a frame shaped like the letter "C". Typically, they are constructed with a compound X/Y table and a vertical Z-axis column. | ||
| Gantry | Gantry style routers are constructed typically with a stationary table and a bridge that spans vertical columns. All gantry routers have three moving axes (X, Y, and Z). In five-axis configurations, the router head has rotary and angular axes in addition to the X, Y, and Z axes. | ||
| Other | Other unlisted frame construction. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||

| Features | |||
| Your choices are... | |||
| Machine Enclosure / Guarding | CNC routers have a machine enclosure for safety and/or containment of chips and cutting fluids. | ||
| Multiple Spindles | Multiple spindle heads allow routers to use several cutting tools to perform different operations with a single machine setup. | ||
| Tool Changer | Tool changers allow CNC routers to perform more than one function without requiring an operator to change the tooling. | ||
| Vacuum Table | The router table has a vacuum system to fixture the parts to be machined. | ||
| Search Logic: | All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches. | ||
