Five-axis through-feed lathes are not exactly the same as traditional five-axis machine tools. They have significant differences in structure, processing capacity, application scenarios , etc.
Structural differences
Youdaoplaceholder0 Traditional five-axis machine tools : usually, on the basis of the three linear axes X, Y, and Z, two rotary axes among A, B, and C are added to form the five-axis linkage processing capability. The movement mode of its rotation axis is diverse, such as the double swivel head form (two rotation coordinates directly control the direction of the tool axis) and the double turntable form (two rotation coordinates directly control the rotation of the space), etc.
Youdaoplaceholder0 five-axis through-feed machine : It belongs to the type of computerized through-feed machine tool. On the basis of the four-axis through-feed machine tool, it further adds the left and right movement of the back axis, achieving more complex motion control. The tool arrangement adopts a two-axis controlled row tool rest arrangement structure, which is simple in structure, quick in tool changing and highly reliable.
Differences in processing capabilities
Youdaoplaceholder0 Traditional five-axis machine tools : They offer greater processing flexibility and precision, and are capable of handling more complex processing tasks, such as curved surfaces, inclined surfaces, and intricate three-dimensional shapes. It can complete the processing of multiple surfaces with a single clamping, reducing the time for tool and fixture changes and improving processing efficiency. Meanwhile, five-axis machine tools can maintain the best cutting state of the cutting tools, improve cutting conditions, and achieve better surface processing quality.
The five-axis through-feed lathe is more suitable for processing parts with more complex requirements for turning and milling compound processing, especially for large-scale, multi-variety and high-precision processing tasks. It can perform functions such as side, front, drilling and milling of parts, and is equipped with a power tool module installed with various drilling and milling power tools or cyclone tools to complete multi-directional precision drilling and milling processing of various shaft parts.
Differences in application scenarios
Youdaoplaceholder0 traditional five-axis machine tools : Widely used in aerospace, automotive manufacturing, mold processing and other industries, they are used for processing aircraft engine parts, aerospace structural components, automotive body molds, engine parts, as well as complex parts such as injection molds and die-casting molds.
The five-axis through-spindle is more suitable for processing micro-components and the precision compound processing of various high-precision, multi-batch, and complex-shaped shaft parts in industries such as aviation, aerospace, military, automobiles, motorcycles, communications, refrigeration, optics, home appliances, electronic connectors, eyewear accessories, and watches.
