5 axis CNC router machine is a type of multi axis 3D machining center with CNC (Computer Numerical Control),  it has the advantages of high machining accuracy and is specially used for the machining of complex curved surface workpieces.
The advantage of 5 axis CNC machine is that it can process free-form surfaces that can not be processed by ordinary 3 axis CNC machines or that it cannot be processed at one time. For example, the blades of aircraft engines and steam turbines, the propellers of ships, and other complex molds with special curved surfaces. It plays an important role in the aviation, aerospace, military, scientific research, precision equipment, high-precision medical equipment, and other industries.

The Advantages of 5-Axis CNC Machining

Minimized steps

Fewer steps are needed to be made to create a complex geometry. It uses a five-axis technology to create the geometry compared to the traditional machining way. Multiple set ups are possible with three axis machining but one can minimize the number of steps required to create the final design. It is more efficient and reliable along with more productivity.
 

No need for complex fixtures

Often with the three-axis machine, complex fixtures required to made in order to create orientation and eliminates the requirement of creating the right kind of fixture. The main reason behind this is that the part can be held once and rotated so that the geometry can be created easily. Five axis machining provides great ability to make complex shapes in single set up that leads to saving time, money and operator error and these are the most predominant reasons behind using this machine.

Fast removal of material

The five-axis machine allows cutting tool to remain perpendicular to the cutting surface and therefore allows the cutting easier and faster removal of material. This also reduces the cycle times and the costs as well since more material can be easily removed in each cycle of the tool. One can even check the CNC mining procedure and it is also quite better compared to the other traditional procedures.
 

Better surface finishing

If you are looking for a machine with better surface finish then this 5 axis cnc router machine is best suited for you. Compared to the traditional 3-axis machine, one can achieve smaller cuts and good surface finish. Any complex or intricate details are faster and more precise, and your finished product is sure to abide by quality and performance specifications.
 

Shorter cutting tools

With the range of motion in 5-axis machinery, shorter cutters can be used. These reduce vibration that often occurs in deeper cuts in a 3-axis machine. Not only does this deliver a smoother finish on the surface, but it also allows for higher cutting speeds without excessive pressure.  
5-axis machining is an advanced cutting method that creates some of the highest quality parts. It runs with computer numerical control (CNC) technology. Although 5-axis machines were previously reserved only for the aerospace markets, they are now in a variety of industries.
