eBook: 3-Axis vs 5-Axis CNC Machining: Advantages and Disadvantages
Learn about these two CNC machining processes and how they can each be used.
Over time, CNC machines have gained popularity across most manufacturing sectors. These devices automate manufacturing processes such as: cutting, drilling, milling, and turning, and they do it all using computer numerical control (CNC) technology. CNC machines allow for the highly accurate and precise production of intricate designs and parts.
There are several kinds of CNC machines, but most fall under the 3-axis or 5-axis categories. These two differ in their axes of motion capabilities. This free eBook will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of 3-axis and 5-axis CNC machines.
