The five-axis CNC machine tool is a 3D machining center with CNC (computer numerical control). Compared with the ordinary three-axis machine tool, it has two more axes, so it can engrave products of various shapes and process a wider range of materials.
Five axis CNC machines move a part or tool on five different axis at the same time via CNC programming. 3 axis CNC machines move a part in two directions with X axis and Y axis, and the tool moves up and down with Z axis. Five axis CNC machines can rotate on two additional rotary axis (A aixs and B axis) which will help the tool to approach the part from all directions.
The five-axis machining center is not only used in civil industries, such as wood mold manufacturing, bathroom trimming, automotive interior parts processing, foam mold processing, European-style furniture, solid wood chairs, etc., but also widely used in aviation, aerospace, military, scientific research, precision Equipment, high-precision medical equipment and other industries. The five-axis machining center is a high-tech method, which makes the impossible possible. All the space curved surfaces and special-shaped machining can be completed. It can not only complete the task of mechanized processing of complex workpieces, but also quickly improve the processing efficiency and shorten the processing process.
