What is Multi Axis Machining and How Does it Help My Portland, OR Company?
Efficiency and precision are first and foremost at Roberson Machine Company. Multi axis machining is a cutting-edge technique that involves using CNC machinery to perform operations on numerous axes simultaneously. Our traditional 3 axis machining moves vertical on the Y-axis, sideways on the X-axis, and back-and-forth on the Z-axis. With 5 axis machining, you get two additional axes – the tilting table (A-axis) and the table table rotation (C-axis). The spindle head is in closer proximity to the workpiece, allowing shorter and tighter cuts with less deflection and vibration.
5 axis CNC machines can also be used in what is known as “3+2” mode, meaning the two table axes are locked, putting the part or cutting tool into a fixed position. The 3+2 mode allows parts that would commonly be machined on a 3 axis CNC machine to be produced on a machine that doesn’t require as much downtime, special fixtures, loading and unloading, or changing of setups. It also allows parts that have unique features or holes on numerous faces to be manufactured quicker and more reliably.
What Are the Advantages of Multi Axis Machining?
Roberson Machine Company’s multi axis machining is an efficient and economical solution with a variety of benefits for your Portland, OR business, including:
- Enhanced precision: Multi axis machining enables the manufacturing of intricate parts with complex features, like curved surfaces and undercuts, that would be challenging and time-consuming utilizing more conventional machining methods. Our ability to move cutting tools along multiple axes allows us to provide your Portland, OR company with greater accuracy and dimensional consistency.
- Enhanced lifespan of our equipment: We can extend the life of our equipment and speeds of our cycle times as a result of tilting the tool/table to keep optimum cutting position and consistent chip load.
- Lower equipment costs: Intricate parts can frequently be manufactured with multi axis machining in a single setup, lessening the amount of tool changes, increasing uptime, decreasing human error, and, in turn, the costs for your company in Portland, OR.
- Expanded design possibilities: The adaptability of multi axis machining opens the door for fresh possibilities. We can create highly complex parts and products with smoother transitions and complicated contours and shapes, allowing for an increase in innovation and the manufacturing of customized parts.
- Achieving excellent surface finishes: Your part can be orientated to bring it closer to the cutting tool, utilizing the rotating fourth and fifth axes. When the part gets closer to the cutting tool, the tool can then be shorter, permitting less susceptibility to vibration and deflection at higher speeds, which has an impact on surface finish.
We are always investing in manufacturing solutions and multi axis machines. Having the ability to develop parts utilizing multiple angles, arcs, and throughputs that are impossible to produce on more traditional CNC machines easily creates parts and products that combine tighter tolerances and more complex designs. Our partners in the Portland, OR area can be confident they will get quality parts, made to their precise preferences, and built to last.
