What is 5-Axis CNC Machining and How Does it Work?
What is 5-Axis CNC Machining and How Does it Work? Introduction: 5-axis CNC machining opens up new possibilities for producing highly complex, sculptural parts with undercuts, complex contours, and intricate features from a variety of materials. By adding two more axes of motion on top of traditional 3-axis machining, 5-axis CNC enables precise angular cutting and unrestricted part access ideal for detailed components with complex geometries. This advanced CNC method is transforming prototyping and production across industries like aerospace, medical, automotive, and more. In this blog, we’ll break down what 5-axis CNC machining is, discuss its key components and programming…
