What’s 5-Axis Machining? Unlocking Precision and Efficiency





#DidYouKnow …
What’s 5-axis machining?
CNC machines don’t all move the same way.
Some work in 3 axes (X, Y, Z), while others extend into 5 axes with two extra rotational movements.
So what’s the difference?
5-axis machining opens up new possibilities:
- Machine multiple sides in a single setup
- Achieve smoother surfaces with dynamic tool paths
- Shorten lead times while keeping precision high
Curious about what 5-axis can do for you?
