5-Axis CNC Machining Services

CNC milling is a subtractive manufacturing process where a computer-controlled machine precisely removes material from a workpiece to create a desired shape. The process involves a rotating cutting tool that moves along multiple axes, controlled by a computer program, to carve out intricate designs from various materials. Five-axis milling adds two rotational axes compared to traditional milling, referred to as the rotary axes. This capability enables the production of highly complex parts and geometries that would be challenging or impossible to achieve with traditional 3-axis machining.

Considerations for 5-Axis CNC Machining

  • 5-Axis CNC Milling excels at making complex prismatic parts very accurately and efficiently

    Examples

    • Suspension Components

    • Intake manifolds

    • Housings

    • Implants & Prosthetics

    • Complex Molds & Dies

    • Propellers

    • Turbines

    • Sculptures

    • Parts manufactured on a 5-axis CNC Mill generally achieve a dimensional tolerance of +/- 0.005”

    • Tighter tolerances of up to +/- 0.001 can be achieved but may affect the pricing of your parts.
