Carvera 4th axis, does it work for long for long pieces of aluminum?

I am considering getting the Carvera, but I am having some trouble finding info on the 4th axis.

I am not trying to mill anything cylindrical, I am trying to make multiple copies of my piece. The piece itself is 2.32 x 1.14 x 0.0625"

  1. The stock I want to use is 3x12x0.625", I can lower the length to 8in so it fits under the length limit. Is the thickness going to be an issue?
  2. Can this comfortably fit inside the 4th axis module? Does the CAM software also work well with the 4th axis? Does it support making an array of operations like Fusion360?
  3. Does the particle collector work with the 4th axis? I am only using the 4th axis for flipping my stock.
