    Yes If remember correctly the machine in pic below is 120mm and that is using short gantry sides. Most I've built allow 150-160mm. That is total travel so got to factor longest tool to get actually Max material thinkness.

    Also if using the 120x80 setup you can gain little clearence and extra travel because bottom rail is on front not underside of profile.
