What is 5-axis machining?

The definition of 3-, 4- or 5-axis machining has to do with the number of directions the tool can move, which also determines the ability of the CNC machine tool to move the workpiece and the tool. Hardware machining centers can move a component in the X and Y directions and the tool moves up and down the Z axis. On a five-axis machining center, the tool can move in the X, Y, and Z linear axes as well as rotate in the A and B axes, allowing the tool to move from Any orientation and approach to workpiece corners. Five-axis machining is different from five-sided machining. Therefore, 5-axis CNC machining services allow infinite possibilities for the parts being machined. Hook surface processing, special-shaped processing, hollow processing, punching, bevel cutting and other special processing can be completed through five-axis CNC services.
