5-Axis Machining & Milling Services
5-axis machining allows for extensive versatility in processing parts of varying sizes and shapes. The "5- axis" designation indicates the cutting tool's ability to move in five directions: along the X, Y, and Z linear axes, and rotationally along the A and B axes. This enables the tool to approach the workpiece from multiple angles, allowing for the processing of five sides of a part in one setup.
Utilizing a 5-axis machine minimizes setup requirements, accelerates cycle times, reduces scrap generation, boosts spindle uptime, and, contrary to common belief, reduces the necessity for extensively trained personnel. This enables your shop to broaden its potential and opportunities.
