Why use 5 axis equipment for high-quality processing?

When people want to manufacture complex precision parts, such as artificial prostheses or bone medical parts, aerospace parts, titanium parts, oil and gas mechanical parts, military products… Choosing the semi-finishing and finishing milling inserts and end mills is very important. UKO make complete series cnc milling tools to realize different machining purpose. At the same time, owning a five-axis machine is also an important factor to realize the processing of complex precision parts.

Then why use 5 axis equipment for high-quality processing?

The five-axis machining center adds two of the A/B/C rotary axes on the basis of the three-axis, which is characterized by the linkage relationship and structure of the two additional rotary axes and the linear axis. The five-axis linkage makes the machining efficiency faster. The tiltable C-axis structure has larger bearings and better rigidity.

Five axis core value

1.Precision

For some complex multi-faceted products, it is more difficult for three-axis machining to achieve higher accuracy, and manual intervention takes a long time. However, five-axis machining can achieve rapid positioning machining, which mainly increases the machining accuracy of the product from the following perspectives:

1. Introduce five-axis fixture;
2. Reduce the clamping process;
3. There is no manual multiple clamping, and the clamping error is reduced;
4. Only need to find the coordinate system once, reducing manual errors;
5. Reduce the length-diameter ratio of the tool and reduce the risk of snapping a knife.

Surface Quality

Five-axis can improve the surface processing quality of the workpiece from the following angles:

1. Use CNC cutting tools with a relatively short length and diameter to improve processing stability;
2. The process of reducing the discharge, the whole surface is more uniform;
3. Use the side edge processing of the ball knife to improve the surface quality of the workpiece.

Effectiveness

Five-axis can improve the processing efficiency of the workpiece from the following angles:

1. Use a tool with a shorter tool length to increase the processing feed;
2. Use five-axis simultaneous machining to reduce the process of electric discharge;
3. Use the side edge processing of the ball cutter, and use the multi-edge cutter to increase the processing feed.
