The frame material affects the CNC machine's rigidity, vibration resistance, and longevity. Aluminum extrusions are lightweight and resist corrosion, steel frames offer maximum rigidity, and hybrids provide a mix of benefits. The Axiom Iconic 6 uses a welded steel base for stability, while the STEPCRAFT M.1000 and STEPCRAFT D.840 use custom engineered aluminum extrusions for superior force distribution. The diverse materials used across models let you prioritize portability, rigidity, or cost as needed.
