Five axis machining technology refers to the techniques and methods of using five axis machine tools to process complex parts. On the basis of the X, Y, and Z linear axes, a five axis machine tool adds any two of the three rotational axes A, B, and C to achieve machining with five degrees of freedom. Sumitech’s use of this processing method has the following characteristics and advantages:

1. High efficiency and precision: Five axis linkage machining can complete complex machining with one-time clamping, avoiding repeated positioning errors caused by multiple clamping, saving time, and improving work efficiency.

2. Wide applicability: The five axis machining process is suitable for processing geometrically complex parts such as molds, screws, gears, cams, curves, as well as body components, turbine components, and impellers in the aerospace field.

3. Strong flexibility: Five axis machine tools can process different sides of workpieces without changing their position on the machine, greatly improving the processing efficiency of prismatic parts.

4. Reduce equipment investment: Five axis machining centers usually have multiple functions such as turning, milling, grinding, etc., which can replace multiple single function machine tools, thereby reducing equipment investment costs, workshop land occupation, and workshop quantity.

The commonly used five axis machining processes include mold processing, screw processing, and part processing. Mold processing can quickly and efficiently produce molds with high standardization and reusability; Screw processing transforms the process path of radius variation into a spiral path, effectively improving processing quality and accuracy; Part processing can quickly process workpieces of any shape.
