5-axis machining process

5-Axis Machining Core Technology

5-axis CNC machining integrates three linear axes (X/Y/Z) with two rotational axes (A/B or B/C), enabling simultaneous motion for complex surface machining:

  • Rotational AxesA-axis (±120° tilt), B-axis (360° rotation)
  • Tool OrientationAdjustable spindle angles for optimal cutter engagement

5-Axis Machining Advantages

Complex Geometry Mastery

Precisely machines organic shapes, turbine blades, and medical implants that 3-axis systems can’t handle.

Reduced Setup Time

Complete multi-surface machining in 1-2 setups vs. 4-5 setups for 3-axis, cutting lead times by 40%.

Enhanced Surface Finish

Achieves Ra 0.8μm standard finish, eliminating secondary polishing for most applications.

Material Efficiency

Minimizes material waste through optimized tool paths for expensive alloys like titanium.

Design Freedom

Supports intricate details and undercuts without feature limitations of 3-axis.

Industry-Leading Precision

±0.003mm tolerance meets aerospace and medical device certification requirements.

5-Axis Machining Considerations

Higher Initial Cost

Machine and tooling investments are 30-50% higher than 3-axis systems.

Complex Programming

Requires advanced CAM software and skilled programmers for multi-axis tool paths.

Maintenance Requirements

Regular calibration of rotational axes to maintain precision tolerances.
