Values and Benefits of 5 Axis CNC Machining

Feb 16, 2022

5 Axis CNC machining provides infinite possibilities as to the part sizes and shapes you can effectively process. The term “5-axis” refers to the number of directions in which the cutting tool can move. On a 5-axis turning center, the cutting tool moves across the X, Y and Z linear axes as well as rotates on the B and C axes to approach the workpiece from any direction. In other words, you can process five sides of a part in a single setup.

Values and Benefits of 5 Axis Machining
• Machine complex shapes in a single setup for increased productivity & accuracy
• Save time and money with less fixture preparation
• Shorter lead times
• Higher part accuracy because the workpiece does not move across multiple workstations
• Ability to use shorter cutting tools for higher cutting speeds and less tool vibrations
• Achieve superior surface finishes and overall better part quality
