Product Overview
The Superstar CX-1525 (manufactured by Jinan Jinshengxing Machinery Manufacture Co., Ltd.) solves the spatial and geometric limitations of traditional 3-axis and 4-axis routers. When manufacturing towering statues, deep foundry molds, or aerospace plugs, flatbed machines struggle with undercuts and require materials to be sliced, machined, and glued back together.
This vertical 5-axis system completely revolutionizes the workflow. The workpiece is mounted vertically on a heavy-duty rotary axis platform. As the piece rotates, the multi-axis 6KW air-cooled swing spindle attacks the material from every conceivable angle. This simultaneous interpolation ensures seamless, highly accurate reproduction of the most complex 3D CAD models in a single, uninterrupted setup.
Core Advantages
True 5-Axis Simultaneous Machining: The customized five-axis operating system perfectly synchronizes the spindle's swing and the platform's rotation, allowing for flawless side drilling, undercut milling, and complex organic curve carving.
Colossal Work Envelope: The vertical orientation is highly space-efficient while accommodating massive parts. It can handle rotation diameters from 1500mm to 2000mm and staggering heights of 2500mm to 3000mm.
Uncompromising Stability: Built on a heavy-duty square tube base, the machine utilizes a Japan Shimpo reducer and a pure servo drive system (with a Z-axis brake) to guarantee zero backlash and absolute rigidity during aggressive milling.
Premium Component Integration: From the Taiwan TBR high-precision lead screws to the high-precision linear square guide rails, every moving part is chosen to ensure smooth, vibration-free motion over multi-meter travel distances.

Detailed Configuration
This high-torque (18,000 RPM) spindle is mounted on a pivoting trunnion. The 6KW power provides enough cutting force to easily mill dense wood molds and carbon fiber, while the φ 20mm tool clamping allows for the use of extra-long, large-diameter foam surfacing bits.
Rotating a multi-ton block of wood or foam at the base requires immense, controlled torque. The Japan Shimpo gear reducer ensures that the heavy rotary platform stops and starts with absolute, micrometer-level precision without "over-swinging."
Because the Z-axis carriage operates vertically over 3 meters, the servo motor is equipped with an integrated electromagnetic brake. If power is ever lost, the brake instantly locks the spindle in place, preventing it from dropping and damaging the workpiece.
Applicable Industries & Materials
This specialized machine is the workhorse of heavy, volumetric manufacturing:
Target Industries: Foundry pattern making (lost-foam casting), theme park prop manufacturing, large-scale sculpture and arts, architectural columns, and marine/aerospace composite plug manufacturing.
Target Materials: EPS (Styrofoam), Polyurethane (PU) foam, XPS, heavy wood molds, tooling boards, carbon fiber, fiberglass, and other composite non-metallic materials.
Why Choose Superstar CNC?
Advanced 5-Axis Engineering: Real 5-axis machines require exceptional geometric calibration. Jinan Jinshengxing Machinery utilizes advanced laser interferometry to ensure that the rotary center and spindle pivot points are perfectly aligned before the machine leaves our factory.
Footprint Efficiency: By turning the machine vertically, you achieve a massive 3-meter processing height without consuming 6+ meters of valuable factory floor space.
Global Technical Support: We don't just sell the machine; we provide the expert post-processor support and software guidance your engineers need to smoothly transition from 3D CAD design to 5-axis physical carving.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need special software to run a 5-axis CNC?
A: Yes. True 5-axis simultaneous machining requires advanced CAM software (such as Powermill, Mastercam, or specialized 5-axis CAD/CAM suites) capable of generating 5-axis toolpaths and avoiding collisions. We will assist your team with the correct post-processor for our controller.
Q: Can this machine process heavy solid wood?
A: Absolutely. The heavy-duty square tube base, 6KW spindle, and Shimpo reducer provide the rigidity and torque necessary to mill large solid wood patterns and carbon fiber blocks, not just lightweight foam.
Q: How do you load a 3-meter tall block into the machine?
A: Due to the vertical design, raw materials are typically lowered onto the rotary axis platform from above using a standard factory overhead crane or a heavy-duty forklift, making loading highly efficient.
