Five Axis Machining, as the name implies, is a mode of Machining with CNC Machining tools. The linear interpolation motion of any 5 coordinates in X, Y, Z, A, B and C is adopted.
The machine tool used in five-axis machining is usually called a five-axis machine tool or a
five-axis machining center. Five-axis machining is often used in the aerospace field, machining body
parts with free surface, turbine parts and impeller. Five-axis machine tool can process different sides
of the workpiece without changing the position of the workpiece on the machine tool, which can greatly
improve the machining efficiency of prismatic parts.
The development of five-axis technology
For decades, it has been widely believed that five-axis CNC machining technology is the only way to process continuous, smooth and complex surfaces. Once people in the design and manufacture of complex
surface encountered problems that can not be solved, they will turn to the five-axis processing technology. But...
Five-axis linkage numerical control is the most difficult and widely used technology in numerical control technology. It integrates computer control, high-performance servo drive and precision machining technology, and is applied to the efficient, precise and automatic machining of complex surfaces. The international five axis linkage numerical control technology as a national production equipment automation technology level mark. Because of its special status, especially for aviation, aerospace, military industry important influence, as well as technical complexity, western industrial developed countries have been using five-axis CNC system as strategic materials to implement export license system.
Compared with three-axis CNC machining, from the perspective of technology and programming, five-axis CNC machining for complex surfaces has the following advantages:
1. improve processing quality and efficiency
2. expand the scope of the process
3. to meet the new direction of compound development
