2. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   Typical CNC tools support translation in 3 axis; multiaxis machines also support rotation around one or multiple axis. 5-axis machines are commonly used in industry in which the workpiece is translated linearly along three axes (typically x, y, and z) and the tooling spindle is capable of rotation about an addition 2 axes.

3. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_(machining)

   Generally flat bottom end mills are used for pocket milling. Firstly roughing operation is done to remove the bulk of material and then the pocket is finished by a finish end mill. [10] Most of the industrial milling operations can be taken care of by 2.5 axis CNC milling. [11] This type of path control can machine up to 80% of all mechanical ...

4. Freeform surface machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeform_surface_machining

   Generally 3- or 5-axis CNC milling machines are used for this purpose. The manufacturing process of freeform surfaces is not an easy job, as the tool path generation in present CAM technology is generally based on geometric computation so tool path are not optimum. The geometry can also be not described explicitly so errors and discontinuities ...

5. Tormach - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tormach

   The company's first product was a compact and inexpensive CNC machine called the PCNC 1100 mill which launched in 2003. [2] In 2011 the company had released the PCNC 770 a smaller 3 axis mill aimed at home shops or small manufacturers. [7] Aside from mills, Tormach also released different lathe models over the years including the 8L in 2020. [8]

6. 2.5D (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D_(machining)

   Drilling and tapping operations are also possible on a 2.5-axis mill. 2.5D objects can be machined on a 3-axis milling machine, and do not require any of the features of a higher-axis machine to produce. CNC machines use G-code and M-code in order to control the machine and the positioning of the spindle. Canned cycles use G-code to machine ...

7. Numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

   Functions include: face milling, shoulder milling, tapping, drilling and some even offer turning. Today, CNC mills can have 3 to 6 axes. Most CNC mills require placing the workpiece on or in them and must be at least as big as the workpiece, but new 3-axis machines are being produced that are much smaller. Lathe: Cuts workpieces while they are ...
