Machining 5 axes

Introduction

A small precision should firstly be made:
While speaking about machining 5 axes one will speak about machinings carried out with 5 axes machine moving. The fact of positioning the tool (to incline the tool) to carry out a machining him is called machining 3+2. This type of machining even if it can be carried out on a machine 5 continuous axes is different. One uses in this case 2 Axes (generally of the rotary axes) to direct our tool in space. Machinings will be them realized by using 3 axes machines.

Applicability

In the case of machining 5 axes it possible of is not generalized for all the applicability. With each field there are techniques, different working methods. One can however gather in 4 families distinct from applications.
 

AERONAUTIQUE	Doc.:NCCS	The first industry user of the 5 axes.
ENERGY	Doc.:NCCS	The field King bus in this branch of industry machining 5 axes is an obligation for certain type of part.
MOULD & TOOLS	Doc.:NCCS	The 5 axes is at its beginnings.
CAR	Doc.: Tebis	Applications present in the Style and stamping with cutting 5 axes.
