How the 5-Axis Machine Works

Similar to a CNC machining center, a five-axix machine has three liner axes, plus two rotary axes.  The difference is the addition of two rotary axes to the machine`s headstock and spindle:

  1. Rotary tables
  2. Rotary axes

The results?  The 5-axis machine offers drastic improvements to these applications:

  • Complex 3D Shapes
  • 3D Coorindate Conversion: drilling, milling, reaming and taping on tilted surfaces
