The traditional three-axis machine tool is very common, and we know a little about it, that is, the direction of the tool axis remains the same, either the workbench moves or the gantry moves and the products are processed by controlling the rectangular coordinate motion trajectories of the X, y and Z axes. Compared with five-axis machine tools, the disadvantages of three-axis machine tools are obvious, such as low efficiency, poor processing surface treatment, and parts with abnormal shapes that cannot be processed.

Compared with the three-axis machine tool, the the five-axis CNC machine tool has obvious advantages:

 1.maintain the best cutting state of the tool and improve the cutting conditions

 

When machining the top or edge of the product with three-axis machining, the cutting state gradually becomes worse, which will lead to inaccurate surface treatment of the product. If you want to achieve good results, you need to rotate the workbench many times, which shows that the three-axis is time-consuming, laborious, and inaccurate.

 

In comparison, the five axes are more flexible. One fixture can realize multi-angle machining so that the surface quality of the product is higher.


 2.effectively avoid tool interference

 

For the impeller, blade, and black used in the aerospace field, the three-axis equipment can not meet the process requirements due to interference. While the five-axis machine tool can meet these conditions, it can also use shorter tools for processing, improve the rigidity of the system, reduce the number of tools, and avoid the generation of special tools. For enterprises, it means a decline in tool cost!


 3.reduce the clamping times, and complete five side processing at one time

 

The five-axis machining center only needs one clamping, which can meet the machining of five surfaces of the product, improve the work efficiency and improve the machining accuracy.


 4.improve processing quality and efficiency

 

The five-axis machine tool can use the side edge of the tool for cutting, and the machining efficiency is higher.


 5.shorten the production process chain and simplify production management

 

The complete machining of the five-axis NC machine tool greatly shortens the production process chain and simplifies production management and scheduling. The more complex the workpiece is, the more obvious its advantages over the traditional production method with decentralized processes.


 6.shorten the R & D cycle of new products

 

For enterprises in aerospace, automobile and other fields, some new product parts and forming molds have complex shapes and high precision requirements. The five-axis CNC machining center can solve the problem of precision and the cycle of complex parts in the process of new product development.

 

The mechanical structure of the five-axis machine tool

 

Five-axis machining. Yes, just like you think, five axes. All junior high school students have learned the X, y, and Z axes. On this basis, the five axes are added with two rotating axes (AC, AB, or BC) to meet the requirements of product processing. The motion modes of these two rotating axes can be roughly divided into the following forms:

 1.the two rotation coordinates directly control the direction of the tool axis (double swing head form).

 2.the two coordinate axes are at the top of the tool, but the rotation axis is not perpendicular to the linear axis (pitching pendulum type).

 3.the two rotation coordinates directly control the rotation of the space (double turntable form).

 4.the two coordinate axes are on the workbench, but the rotation axis is not perpendicular to the linear axis (vertical workbench).

 5.one of the two rotation coordinates acts on the tool and the other on the workpiece (one swing and one rotation).

 

Make a purchase of 5 axis cnc service factories from China, you can get them at a good price if you have a large quantity. We hope to be your long-term partner.
