Russian term or phrase: пятикоординатная машина три на пять метров
Here's the passage, which is from a popular science article about a jet-powered model aircraft (it's of a Yakovlev Yak-130, if that makes any difference):

«По меркам моделизма мы применяли высокие технологии, тратя на ручную работу минимум времени, насколько это было возможно, конечно. Крупные детали фрезеровались. К примеру, основа мастер-модели фюзеляжа по 3D-модели фрезеровалась на станке ЧПУ. Это пятикоординатная машина три на пять метров, на которой делаются детали для реальных яхт и поездов.»

I assume that три на пять метров refers to the dimensions of the ЧПУ -- so it's a machine three-by-five meters in size? But what does «пятикоординатная» mean?
