The world’s first 5-axis Desktop CNC mill

There’s nothing like the right tool for the job. And sometimes, that means we have to create it ourselves.

That’s how Penta Machine Company originally got our start — being the first to harness the advantages of 5-axis CNC machining in an affordable, highly-accurate desktop CNC mill, the Pocket NC.

Today’s Pocket NC Desktop CNC lineup is more powerful and user-friendly than ever before.
