Hybrid additive and milling
Kreator Ares combines pellet deposition with a CNC machining center. The extruder automatically connects to the machining carriage, allowing additive and milling operations on one platform.
Configuration-dependent travel
The brochure lists four Ares sizes with different axis strokes. Milling strokes, printing strokes and worktable sizes are different quantities; none is converted here into a guaranteed printable part box.

CMS is represented as an equipment brand within SCM Group; hybrid subtractive capability does not exclude its additive process.
A larger nominal envelope does not establish better print quality. Fit depends on the configuration, usable area, supports, and orientation.
