5Axis
Simultaneous 5Axis Machining Versus 3 + 2 Machining. In simultaneous 5axis machining, the machine tool''s three linear axes (X, Y and Z) and two rotational axes (A and B) all engage at the same time to perform complex processing on parts. With 3 + 2, the machine executes a 3axis milling program with the cutting tool locked in a tilted ...
