A MORE CAPABLE WORKBENCH

InfiMaker K1.
Five axes. One setup.

A compact CNC built for complex parts: simultaneous 5-axis motion, automatic tool changes and an assisted path from design to finished piece.

IDEAS INTO PARTS / 01

What could you make
with InfiMaker K1?

From functional geometry to detailed objects, K1 is designed to cut across angles and surfaces that often demand repeated setups on a conventional 3-axis machine.

MOTION WITHOUT THE RESET / 02

Five axes.
Moving together.

K1 coordinates three linear axes with two rotational axes at the same time. The cutter can approach complex faces and undercuts from changing angles while the workpiece stays in one setup.

01

Reach multiple faces with fewer manual re-fixturing steps.

02

Switch between simultaneous 5-axis, indexed 3+2 and simpler 3-axis work.

03

Keep tool orientation aligned with the geometry being machined.

THE PROCESS / 03

From idea to cut.

InfiStudio is designed to make setup and CAM more approachable while leaving room for established design files and more deliberate machining choices.

BUILT AROUND STABILITY / 04

A serious machine
in a smaller space.

K1 combines a vertical architecture, one-piece cast bed and supported gantry with an enclosed work area. Its compact footprint makes advanced multi-axis machining more practical for studios, labs and workshops.

Complex angles.
One K1 setup.

InfiMaker K1 coordinates five axes and holds five cutting tools plus a probe, reducing manual repositioning for multi-face parts. Consider that workflow alongside your material, fixturing and workshop space.

BEFORE YOU PLEDGE / 07

Questions worth
asking first.

Use these essentials to decide what to inspect more closely on the Kickstarter page.

Is K1 only for experienced CNC users?

InfiMaker positions K1 for both experienced makers and people new to CNC. Its assisted software workflow aims to simplify preparation, but safe tool, material and workholding choices still matter.

What materials can it work with?

The manufacturer lists aluminum, brass, wood, acrylic, wax and other materials, including harder metals for appropriate light-duty applications. The suitable cut depends on tooling, setup and parameters.

How large can a part be?

The published maximum for full 5-axis work is 120 × 120 × 120 mm. Other modes offer different capacities, and fixturing can reduce usable space.

Does 0.01 mm mean every finished part meets that tolerance?

No. InfiMaker lists 0.01 mm XYZ repeatability. Finished-part accuracy depends on the material, tooling, workholding, toolpath and operating conditions.

Where do I check rewards, shipping and delivery?

Review the live Kickstarter Late Pledge for available rewards, included items, shipping costs and current delivery estimates. A crowdfunding pledge is different from a standard retail purchase.
