IMCR-5A1325 Typical Applications
-
Chair / seating — curved shell machining 
Compound curved furniture surface Seating & curved furniture
Furniture and seating plants pick the IMCR-5A1325 when chair shells, armrests, seat pans and sculpted solid-wood or laminated parts need compound curves finished without flipping the blank onto a second fixture. The swing head tilts on two rotary axes so the tool stays normal to the surface while the linear ATC swaps roughing and finishing bits in one program on the 1300×2500 table. Clamp solid wood, plywood or engineered board on the zoned vacuum bed — or a simple fixture for tall arms — so hold-down stays through undercuts. Stay on this 5-axis CNC router when both rotary axes must move together; angled side faces that need only one swivel stay on the 4-axis CNC router.

- Why 5-axis
- Dual rotary keeps the tool normal on compound curves

Car model machining — swing-head close-up Car model / styling mold on the bed 
Pattern mold — compound-curve carving Automotive models & pattern moulds
Model shops and pattern makers use the IMCR-5A1325 when a car-body plug, styling clay master or foam pattern needs continuous 3D surfaces and undercuts finished in one clamp. The swing-head spindle tracks compound curves while the ATC swaps roughing and finishing tools so the blank stays on the 1300×2500 bed. Typical blanks are MDF, polyurethane foam and epoxy tooling board; zone the vacuum table or fixture tall plugs so suction does not drop on open faces. This cell is a wood/composite 5-axis CNC router — not a metal gantry mill; heavy steel moulds belong on gantry CNC milling machines.

Marine plug / yacht mold sample 
Instrument blank — multi-face contouring 
Sculpted millwork / relief sample Marine plugs, instruments & sculpted millwork
Boat yards, instrument makers and premium millwork shops use the IMCR-5A1325 when hull or deck plugs, guitar blanks, relief panels and sculpted architectural parts need multi-face curves finished without a second setup. The swing head reaches faces a flat ATC CNC router cannot see; the linear ATC keeps roughing and finishing in one program on the 1325 table. Typical materials are timber, laminated wood, MDF and light composites. Flat cabinet nests and sign sheets stay on cabinet CNC or ATC 1325 cells — this machine earns its keep on shaped, multi-face work that drives a quote.

The IMCR-5A1325 is IndexMACH’s 1325 (1300×2500 mm / 4×8 ft) 5-axis CNC router — a swing-head CNC router for compound curves, moulds and multi-face wood or composite parts finished in one clamp. The same architecture also ships as 1530 (1500×3000 mm / 5×10 ft), 2030 (2000×3000 mm / ~6.5×10 ft), 2040 (2000×4000 mm / 6.5×13 ft) and custom table sizes when the blank is wider. Furniture seating plants, pattern shops, marine plug makers and instrument builders use the dual rotary axes so the tool stays normal to the surface while the linear ATC swaps roughing and finishing bits without flipping the blank.
Syntec keypad control accepts G-code from mainstream CAD/CAM; we match the post-processor at commissioning. Standard clearance is 500 mm (custom heights available). Dust extraction is not included as standard — plan plant suction or add a collector on the quote. Layout, installation and operator training ship with the machine.
Who buys the IMCR-5A1325?
Seating & furniture — chair shells, arms and sculpted laminated parts that need continuous curves, not just a bevelled edge.
Automotive & pattern moulds — car-body plugs, styling masters and foam patterns in MDF, PU foam or epoxy tooling board.
Marine, instruments & premium millwork — hull/deck plugs, guitar blanks, relief panels and sculpted architectural parts.
Is the IMCR-5A1325 right for this shop?
Yes if daily parts need both rotary axes moving together — compound surfaces, undercuts and several faces in one setup — and the blank fits a 1325 table or fixture.
No if almost every job is flat sheet nesting (buy ATC or cabinet CNC), or only one swivel is enough for side faces (buy the IMCR-4A1325). Heavy metal moulds belong on gantry CNC milling machines.

IMCR-5A1325 Frequently Asked Questions
How much does the 5-Axis CNC Router IMCR-5A1325 cost?
Pricing for the IMCR-5A1325 typically falls in the $23,000 – $65,000 range depending on spindle, magazine, control, clearance height and options. Ask for a quote with part photos, materials and plant voltage.
What jobs is the IMCR-5A1325 built for?
Compound curves and multi-face wood or composite parts that need both rotary axes moving together — chair shells, automotive and marine plugs, instrument blanks and sculpted millwork. This page is the 1325 (1300×2500 mm / 4×8 ft) build; 1530 (1500×3000 mm / 5×10 ft), 2030 (2000×3000 mm / ~6.5×10 ft), 2040 (2000×4000 mm / 6.5×13 ft) and custom table sizes share the same architecture. Flat sheet nests belong on ATC or cabinet CNC; single-swivel side faces stay on 4-axis CNC routers.
What table sizes are available besides this 1325?
This page is the fixed 1325 (1300×2500 mm / 4×8 ft) SKU. The same 5-axis CNC router architecture also ships as 1530 (1500×3000 mm / 5×10 ft), 2030 (2000×3000 mm / ~6.5×10 ft), 2040 (2000×4000 mm / 6.5×13 ft) and custom table sizes — send sheet or blank size with the quote request.
When should I choose 5-axis over 4-axis?
Choose this 5-axis CNC router when the tool must approach from arbitrary angles and both rotary axes move in the same program. If only one swivel (A-axis) is enough for bevels and side faces, the IMCR-4A1325 is usually the right buy.
Is a dust collector included with the IMCR-5A1325?
No. Dust extraction is not supplied as standard — use the plant system or add a collector on the quote. Confirm hose size and power with sales before shipment.
What control and CAM setup does the IMCR-5A1325 use?
Syntec industrial CNC with a keypad operator panel. We match the post-processor to the plant CAD/CAM at commissioning. Send sample toolpaths with the enquiry so rotary limits and the post are checked before the first production job.
What workpiece height and materials does the IMCR-5A1325 handle?
Standard clearance is 500 mm; custom heights are available. Typical materials are solid wood, plywood, MDF, PU foam, epoxy tooling board and light composites. It is not a metal gantry mill — steel moulds need gantry CNC milling.
What is the delivery lead time for the IMCR-5A1325?
Standard configurations usually ship within 15–30 working days after order confirmation. Custom clearance, voltage or magazine builds may take longer; sales confirms the date on the order. Layout, commissioning and operator training are included.
What power supply does the IMCR-5A1325 require?
Standard is AC 380V, 3-phase, 50/60 Hz. 220V and 480V builds are available to match the plant supply.
What warranty and support are included?
The IMCR-5A1325 ships with a 12-month limited warranty, plus free lifetime technical support for end-users and dealers.
