Anyone who has a basic understanding of business automation will know that a CNC Router is a smart investment if you’re serious about increasing productivity and your profit margin. If you’re in the sign, graphics or packaging industry, the benefits from using the AXYZ Trident Router are multiplied.  Single focus companies can now enter multiple markets, from interior and exterior sign-making, graphics and print finishing, foam packaging or point of sale displays. Business is not only about efficiency and productivity, its now expanded to attract new customers and new revenue for your company. An important edge in a very competitive marketplace.

The Trident is known for its versatility and speed. With triple-head technology, a twin-knife and heavy-duty router spindle, it delivers lightning fast cutting and overwhelming power to take on the broadest range of materials. From routing aluminium and acrylic to cutting and trimming paper, vinyl, foam board, and rubber, the opportunities to create new products are endless. A much larger process area (60 inches/1.52 m to 128 inches/3.25 m in width and 48 inches/1.21 m to 50 ft/15.24 m in length) makes it easier to delve into items you may not have even considered before, like brackets, fixtures or shelving units that attach to your signmaking creations. Knives such as the tangential, oscillating, or a combination of both, with blades up to 4.75 inches long, make it easier to cut any depth of material. Combine all these features together and you’re working with the most versatile, configurable machine in the industry.
