What is 5 Axis CNC Machining?
5 Axis CNC Machining breaks these boundaries by introducing two additional axes: rotation on the X and Y axes, also known as A and B axes. This innovation empowers the cutting tool to access more workpiece areas from various angles, enhancing precision and versatility and ensuring both efficiency and accuracy.

Classification of 5-axis machining
| Machining Type | 5-Axis Machining with Two Rotational Axes | Simultaneous 5-Axis Machining | 3+2 Axis Machining (or 5-Sided Machining) | Positional 5-Axis Machining | Surface 5-Axis Machining |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Working Method | Workpiece remains stationary while the cutting tool rotates to achieve different angles | Cutting tool and workpiece move simultaneously | Workpiece is positioned or supported for machining | Cutting tool moves to specific positions for machining | Cutting tool moves along the surface of the workpiece for cutting |
| Advantage | Handles complex geometric workpieces, allows for multi-angle cutting | Flexibility suitable for complex curves and 3D machining | Enables multi-surface machining, reducing re-clamping and setups | High-precision machining for fine details and surface finishing | Improves surface quality, reduces post-processing needs |
| Suitable Scenarios | Workpieces requiring multi-angle cutting | Complex curves and 3D machining | Workpieces requiring multi-surface machining | Workpieces requiring high precision and detailed machining | Workpieces requiring high surface quality and finish |

5 Axis CNC Machining Parts Tolerances & Standards ISO2768
In the machining parts industry, tolerances are crucial for ensuring that parts meet design requirements and are reliable in their applications. The ISO 2768 standard provides detailed guidelines for general tolerances, helping customers specify dimensional and geometric tolerances for parts when no specific tolerance requirements are given.
| Permissible deviations in mm for ranges in nominal lengths | Tolerance class designation (description) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| f (fine) | m (medium) | c (coarse) | v (very coarse) | ||
| 0.5 up to 3 | ±0.05 | ±0.1 | ±0.2 | - | |
| over 3 up to 6 | ±0.05 | ±0.1 | ±0.3 | ±0.5 | |
| over 6 up to 30 | ±0.1 | ±0.2 | ±0.5 | ±1.0 | |
| over 30 up to 120 | ±0.15 | ±0.3 | ±0.8 | ±1.5 | |
| over 120 up to 400 | ±0.2 | ±0.5 | ±1.2 | ±2.5 | |
| over 400 up to 1000 | ±0.3 | ±0.8 | ±2.0 | ±4.0 | |
| over 1000 up to 2000 | ±0.5 | ±1.2 | ±3.0 | ±6.0 | |
