Multi-Axis Machining: Why It’s Synonymous with High-Precision Parts
Traditional CNC machines mainly move along three linear axes (X, Y, Z), while multi-axis machining incorporates a fourth, fifth, or even more rotational axes.
Once the workpiece is fixed, the machine’s rotational axes allow cutting from multiple angles. This delivers three transformative advantages:
- Ultra-High Precision:Eliminates cumulative errors caused by multiple re-fixturing.
- Extreme Complexity:Capable of producing inclined surfaces, freeform curves, and other geometries that are impossible with traditional methods in a single setup.
- Efficient Production:Reduces auxiliary time for re-fixturing and machine changes, while improving surface quality.
