Structure of A 5-axis CNC Machine
Rotary Spindle Head
Variable speed spindle holds rotating cutting tool which travels on the Y-axis (front to back) and spins on the B-axis.
Cutting Tool
Machine tools cut material from the workpiece to form a part - subtractive manufacturing.
Traveling Columns
The Z-axis (left to right) and X-axis (top to bottom) columns the rotary spindle head and tooling travel upon.
Main Spindle
Main chuck holding workpiece which rotates on the C-axis up to 2,500 RPMs and is able to travel on Z-axis.
Sub-Spindle
Secondary chuck holding workpiece which revolves on the C-axis up to 2,500 RPMs and is able to move on Z-axis.

5 Axis CNC Machining FAQs
- Q
What is the difference between 3-axis and 5-axis CNC machining?
AThe main difference is the fixturing and setup time. 3-axis machines work on 3 axes and 5-axis machines work on 5 axes. By using a 5-axis machine over a 3-axis machine, cycle time is remarkably reduced, decreasing it by more than 1/3rd.
To know more details about 3-axis, 4-axis, and 5-axis CNC milling, you can read our guide on Differences between 3-, 4-, and 5-Axis CNC Machining to help you choose the best suitable one for your CNC machining project.
