What are the limitations of five-axis linkage machining? What are its advantages?

Five-axis linkage means that there are at least five coordinate axes (three linear coordinates and two rotational coordinates) on a machine tool, and the coordinated motion can be processed under the control of computer Numerical control (CNC) system at the same time. So do you know the limitations of five-axis linkage machining? What are the advantages? In view of the above problems, the editor of ADTECH five-axis linkage processing manufacturer will give you a detailed introduction, the specific content is as follows:


五轴联动加工有哪些局限性?其优势又有哪些?


1. Limitations of five-axis linkage:

Compared with 3+2 positioning, its spindle rigidity is less.

In some cases, it is not appropriate to use the five-axis scheme, such as the tool is too short, or the tool handle is too large, so that the vibration can not be avoided under any tilt Angle.Compared with the 3-axis machine tool, the machining accuracy error is large.


2. Advantages of five-axis linkage machining:

No special fixture is needed in five-axis linkage machining, which reduces the cost of the fixture, avoids multiple clamping, and improves the machining accuracy of the die.Reduce the number of fixtures used.Many special tools are omitted in the five-axis linkage machining, thus reducing the tool cost.


It can increase the effective cutting edge length of the tool, reduce the cutting force, improve the service life of the tool and reduce the cost in the five-axis linkage machining.
