Series: A1X Series
Model: A18

Product overview

RichAuto A18 is the A1X series four-axis controller for rotary carving, cylinder work, prism cutting, polyhedral processing, Buddha statues, stair columns, sofa legs, table legs, and furniture parts where a fourth rotary axis is required.

The model-level A18 source confirms four-axis coordinated motion mode, A/C code formats, special M code control, user-definable I/O interfaces, intelligent processing memory, 8 breakpoint positions, 9 workpiece coordinates, mobile/fixed calibration, free rotary axis marking (A/B/C), and the ability to set the fourth axis as normal or rotary.

A18 supports special processing requirements including array work, mill plane, zoom, and part work, with enhanced anti-interference performance validated through multiple CE tests. A18E and A18S handle-surface language variants share the same system operation.

Selection notes

Confirm the machine needs a 4th rotary axis for cylindrical, prism, or polyhedral work.
Confirm whether the 4th axis should be set as normal axis or rotary axis.
Send photos of the current controller, wiring board, and rotary axis setup.
Confirm stepper or servo driver type, signal style, and rotary axis marking preference.

Frequently asked questions

How do I set up the 4th axis as a rotary axis?

The 4th axis can be set as either a normal axis or a rotary axis in the controller settings. You can also freely mark the rotary axis as A, B, or C. Consult the manual for specific parameter settings.

What types of rotary work does this controller support?

This controller supports cylindrical carving, prism work, polyhedral processing, stair columns, furniture parts, Buddha statues, and other rotary machining applications.
