Industry Application Of Five Axis Cnc Machine

Five-axis machine used to be mainly used in aerospace and other industries that require complex processing, but with the transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry, the processing demand is becoming more and more complex, and the application field of five-axis machine tool has been expanded.

At present, it is used in important manufacturing industries such as automobiles, precision molds, tools, electronics, construction machinery, and clean energy, and the future market space will also accelerate the expansion.

Materials suitable for processing

composite materials such as carbon fiber (PCM/RTM/SMC/LFT, etc.), glass fiber, carbon/carbon and other products; 

Plastic materials such as ABS, PVc,l PC, PP, PS, PE, PET, HDPE, PETG, Acrylic, etc.; 

High-density sponge, styrofoam foam, wood, substitute wood, stone, plaster etc.

Soft metals such as aluminum, copper, and zinc, as well as aluminum/paper honeycomb can also be processed.

Machine bed structure of Five Axis Cnc Machine

1 Material Selection: The bed frame is primarily made of Q235 rectangular tubes, which are carbon steel material known for its good weldability and mechanical properties. With a wall thickness of 10mm, it provides sufficient strength and rigidity to the bed frame.

2 Reinforcement at Key Points: Reinforcement plates are added at critical areas of the bed frame, such as connection points or areas under high stress, to enhance the structural stability and load-bearing capacity.

3 Connection Plate Thickness: The connection plates have a thickness of no less than 20mm, ensuring the strength of the connection areas to withstand greater loads.

4 Finite Element Analysis (FEA): During the design phase, finite element analysis is used to simulate the stress distribution and deformation of the bed frame under various working conditions. This helps to optimize the design to ensure that the bed frame can withstand the expected loads in practical use.

5 Stress Relieving Treatment: Before machining, the bed frame components undergo stress relieving treatment, achieved through heat treatment. This helps to eliminate residual stresses within the material, reducing the risk of deformation during machining and fatigue cracks during use.

6 Vibration-Free Aging Treatment: This is a special heat treatment method used to further stabilize the microstructure of the material, improving its fatigue life and resistance to deformation.

Machine Transmission Parts of 5 axis CNC machining center

X/Y Axis Guide:

The X/Y axis guide system is equipped with Taiwan CSK ball linear guides. This system incorporates Taiwan Jingte precision grinding rack and pinion mechanisms, which ensure minimal tooth gaps, providing high precision and stable operation. Such a setup is particularly suited for applications involving 5 axis CNC machining centers for milling and drilling.

Z Axis Guide:

The Z axis employs Taiwan WIHIN roller linear guides, featuring double rows and six sliders. This configuration offers substantial load-bearing capacity and is designed for heavy cutting operations. Furthermore, the Z axis utilizes a Taiwan TBI precision ball screw, which guarantees stable operation and high precision. This makes it compatible with 5 axis CNC cutting machines and thermoformed plastic 5 Axis CNC routers.

Reducer:

The reducer system includes a Japan Shimpo reducer for the X/Y axis and a Japan Sumitomo precision hollow reducer for the C/B axis. This high-quality reducer setup enhances the machine's performance and durability, particularly in demanding applications such as 5 axis CNC machining centers for composites and carbon fiber machining.

5 Axis CNC Machine Program:

The machine's program conforms to general international standards, including G, M, and T instructions, ensuring compatibility with NC programs generated by leading CAD/CAM 3D programming software such as UG and POWERMILL. This robust compatibility is crucial for various 5 axis CNC machines, including 3D strong 5 Axis CNC machines and 5 Axis High Speed Centers for light alloys and composites.

3 Axis, 4 Axis, 5 Axis Differences in CNC Machines

3 Axis:

3-axis CNC machining involves three linear axes moving in distinct directions: up and down, front and back, and left and right. This configuration allows the machine to process only one surface at a time, making it suitable for simpler disk parts. However, this limitation becomes apparent when dealing with components requiring multi-faceted machining, such as those involving holes or grooves on various faces.

4 Axis:

4-axis CNC machining adds an additional rotational axis, typically allowing 360° horizontal rotation. This enhancement is particularly useful for machining box parts and enables the machine to function both as a milling machine and a lathe. The inclusion of the B-axis, which allows workpiece rotation, is advantageous for drilling into the sides of parts or the curved surfaces of cylinders. This capability not only accelerates the machining process but also ensures higher machining accuracy.

5 Axis:

5-axis CNC machining introduces a further rotational axis, permitting 360° rotation of the vertical surface. This advanced configuration allows for comprehensive machining with a single clamping, thus reducing clamping costs and minimizing the risk of product scratches. The versatility and precision of 5-axis CNC machining are particularly advantageous for manufacturing complex precision parts, including those made from composites and carbon fiber. This is exemplified in specialized equipment such as 5 axis CNC routers for composite machining and 5 axis CNC routers for carbon fiber machining.
