The B-axis of the universal design provides superb undercutting ability with a full 110° in both positive and negative directions and lets you use shorter tools when cutting smaller parts. On a traditional A-axis trunnion, the tools approach the part from behind the A-axis trunnion, which means you’re forced to use longer tools for clearance. Since the B-axis trunnion of the VC/VCX machines tilts around the Y-axis, the tool is always approaching the part from a safe direction, which minimizes the possibility for interference.
