Intelligent & fully automated 5-Axis processing provides greater accuracy, higher-quality finishes & reduced hand-finishing.
Generally Speaking, 5-Axis machining is a manufacturing process where computer numerically controlled axes moved in 5 ways are used to manufacture parts out of metal or other materials by milling away excess material. Typical CNC tools support translation in 3 axes; multi-axis or 5-axis machines also support rotation around one or multiple axes.
The number of axes for multi-axis machines varies from 4 to as many as 9. Each axis of movement is implemented either by moving the table (into which the workpiece is attached),or by moving the tool. The actual configuration of axes varies; therefore machines with the same number of axes can differ in the movements that can be performed.
5-axis machining can be broken down into two different categories; full, simultaneous 5-axis machining and 3+2 5-axis machining.
