Introduction to Five Axis CNC Machining CNC machining, also known as computer gong, CNCCH or CNC machine tool, is actually a term used in Hong Kong. Later introduced to the Pearl River Delta in mainland China, it is actually a CNC milling machine. It is a new type of machining technology called "CNC machining center" in Guangzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. The main job of five axis CNC machining is to program machining programs, which means that manual work is converted into computer programming. Of course, experience in manual processing is required.
Five axis CNC machining generally refers to precision machining, CNC machining lathes, CNC machining milling machines, CNC machining boring and milling machines, etc. CNC machining has the following advantages:
① It can process complex surfaces that are difficult to process using conventional methods, and even some unobservable machining parts.
② In the case of multi variety and small batch production, the production efficiency is higher, which can reduce the time for production preparation, machine tool adjustment, and process inspection, and also reduce cutting time due to the use of optimal cutting quantity.
③ Stable processing quality, high processing accuracy, high repeatability, suitable for the processing requirements of aircraft.
④ A significant reduction in the number of tooling is required to process parts with complex shapes without the need for complex tooling. If you want to change the shape and size of a part, you only need to modify the part processing program, which is suitable for new product development and modification.
The disadvantage of CNC machining is that the cost of machine tools is expensive, requiring maintenance personnel to have a high level of expertise.
