CNC Milling is a process where a milling tool cuts away the material in a rotary motion. It allows manufacturers to shape raw materials into specific forms, creating components with desired dimensions and geometries. Milling machines can also achieve extremely tight tolerances and high precision.

Machining the normal hole on the inclined plane with a five-axis machining center

High-speed 5-axis machining for manufacturing molds

Nowadays, automobile molds have higher and higher requirements for mold surface quality and cutting speed. The best milling state can be achieved when the five-axis CNC system is used to process a plane with three-dimensional curves. The setting angle of the tool axis can be changed at any position in the machining area of the machine tool to process different geometric shapes.

Difficulties of 5-axis CNC machining

5-axis CNC machining method and machine tool. As early as the 1960s, the foreign aviation industry had begun to use it in order to process some large workpieces with continuous smooth and complex free-form surfaces, but it has not been widely used in more industries. Only in the past 10 years has there been rapid development. The main reason is that there are many difficulties in five-axis machining, such as:

5-axis machining of complex profiles

5-axis machining of complex profiles

Complex contours appear in tool and mold manufacturing, and are mass-produced products. Before the emergence of CNC machine tools, forging dies and dies used in the automotive industry were mainly manufactured by hand. After the 1970s, CNC machine tools have been widely used in tool and mold manufacturing. The basic contours of complex profiles are usually processed by milling, and the surrounding CNC machine tools are initially set to three-axis linkage.

5-axis machining for inclined surfaces

The high-performance 5-axis CNC milling machining center, the CNC system has the space coordinate system rotation and the inclined tool compensation function, which provides the possibility for the machining of some parts that require inclined surface machining and high machining accuracy. When machining on an inclined plane, it is difficult to compile a machining program because the coordinate system changes in space.

5-axis machining turbocharger impeller
The high-precision turbocharger impeller is the most stringent key component. Through advanced 5-axis machining, hundreds of turbocharger impellers can be manufactured every day. Using solid aluminum milling, compared with the old-fashioned cast supercharger, not only has the price advantage but also higher tolerance accuracy.

The price advantage of CNC machining mass production

What are the advantages of CNC machining?

CNC machining has become a major pillar of the manufacturing industry. This type of processing is used in more and more products (for example, CNC turning and CNC milling, engraving, cutting and drilling). Although many mechanics are accustomed to this form of processing, not everyone knows the logic behind it. Compared with other forms of machining, the main advantages of using CNC machining are as follows:
