- This video explains how they are different.
The primary differences between 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC machining lie in the degrees of freedom and the complexity of movements the workpiece or tool can make during the machining process:
1. 3-Axis CNC Machining:
- The machine's tool can move along three axes: X-axis (left-right), Y-axis (forward-backward), and Z-axis (up-down).
- Suitable for machining relatively simple geometries such as flat surfaces, slots, and holes.
- Commonly used for most basic machining tasks, but may have limitations with complex geometries and surfaces.
2. 4-Axis CNC Machining:
- In addition to the X, Y, and Z axes, there is an added rotational axis (usually the A-axis), allowing the workpiece to rotate around the X-axis.
- This additional rotational axis enables the workpiece to be machined from multiple angles in a single setup, improving machining efficiency and precision.
- Suitable for workpieces that require machining at different angles.
3. 5-Axis CNC Machining:
- Beyond the 3-axis and 4-axis, another rotational axis is added (usually the B-axis or C-axis), allowing the workpiece or tool to move along two rotational axes.
- Capable of machining complex geometries and surfaces, and is widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and medical, where high precision and complexity are required.
- This machining method significantly reduces the need for multiple setups, improving machining accuracy and efficiency.
In summary, the more axes a CNC machine has, the greater its machining flexibility and complexity, enabling it to handle more intricate workpiece shapes.
