What is 5-axis machining and how does it work?
As a manufacturing and machining process, a multi-axis machine tool, specifically a 5-axis CNC machine, is a tool that is capable of manipulating a workpiece along multiple axes. These machines remove excess material from a workpiece during the milling process. In addition to the regular 3 axes (x, y, z), a 5-axis machine can also move the base along an additional fourth and fifth axis by rotating the spindle. Like any other CNC machine, a 5-axis CNC machine relies on computer instructions to control the movement of the cutting tool (and the workpiece) to produce the desired part. The 5-axis CNC machining process begins with a designer creating a 3D model of the desired part using a CAD tool (computer-aided design). The machinist then exports this CAD model to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) software, which converts the drawing into a computer program (also known as G-code). The G-code contains a set of instructions that control the movement of the tool along the linear axes (X, Y, and Z) and the movement of the machine table along the rotary axes (A and C) to produce the desired part.
Benefits of 5-Axis CNC Machining
- Complex Geometries: Create complex shapes and contours that are impossible with 3-axis machining, opening up new design possibilities for your projects.
- High Efficiency: Reduce setup time and improve accuracy by machining multiple sides of a part in one operation to minimize human error and part handling.
- Superior Surface Finish: Reduce the need for post-processing by maintaining optimal tool-to-part contact, resulting in smoother surfaces and better details.
- Shorter Lead Times: Complete projects faster with fewer setups and tool changes, increasing productivity and reducing your product’s time to market.
- Economic Benefits of Small-Batch Production: Small batches or prototypes can be produced more economically, as reduced setup time makes it possible to shorten production cycles.
- Improved Precision: Consistently maintain tight tolerances on complex components to ensure precision at every design step.
5-axis machining vs. 3D printing
During 5-axis machining, the workpiece is often significantly altered. Experienced machinists program 5-axis CNC machines to produce finished parts from workpieces by instructing cutting tools to cut the workpiece.
In contrast, the 3D printing process is completely different, mainly through software programs to control the nozzle to automatically build the powdered substrate into the desired shape of the printed product in different ways. 3D printers have developed to the point where they can not only print plastics, but also use metal materials to manufacture products. However, because 3D printing can take a lot of time to complete, in most cases, this manufacturing process is not commercially comparable to traditional machining processes.
