Built to Cut Like a Professional
From fine woodworking to aluminum milling, the Shapeoko 5 Pro 4×2’s motion system is designed to deliver high-speed accuracy with industrial-grade reliability. The 16 mm ball screws on all axes provide rigid linear motion, while the custom wipers keep debris away from the screw threads, extending lifespan and maintaining precision.
The HG-15 linear guides add another level of control, minimizing vibration and ensuring each toolpath follows perfectly—even at higher speeds or complex tool changes.
Clean Operation, Smarter Design
The included Sweepy 65 mm V2 Dust Boot captures debris at the source for a cleaner, safer workspace—especially essential for woodworking and composite machining.
Its Hybrid T-slot Table provides versatile workholding with 4.04″ center-to-center spacing, giving you flexibility for clamping materials of any shape or size.
With up to 5 inches of Z-axis clearance, you can easily mount tall fixtures or stack workpieces for advanced setups.
Engineered for Reliability & Longevity
Every component of the Shapeoko 5 Pro 4×2 is designed for durability and precision—from the inductive homing sensors and dual Y-axis synchronization to the ball screw drive system that delivers smooth, consistent motion.
The 3.15-inch gantry shift capability also provides additional clearance for joinery and edge machining, allowing users to work on materials that extend beyond the table’s edge.
