FAQ (FAQ)
-
What are the main advantages of five-axis CNC machining over three-axis machining?
Five-axis machining allows two rotation axes (usually A and B) to be added simultaneously along three linear axes (x, y, z). This allows for the machining of complex geometries (not possible with 3 axes) in a single setup – resulting in higher accuracy (reposition error), smooth surface surfaces on contoured surfaces, faster production time for complex parts, and the ability to create highly complex shapes with less curved ones.
-
Which industries usually use Greatlight’s five-axis CNC machining service?
We offer a variety of noble industries, including aerospace (engine components, structural parts), medical equipment (surgical instruments, implants, diagnostic equipment), automobiles (performance motion, transmission parts, transmission parts, sensors), robotics (actuators, final effectors), electronic equipment (houses, radiators), cameras, cameras, and cameras, as well as cameras, and volume.
-
What level of accuracy tolerance can be achieved?
Thanks to our advanced machines and strict processes, Greatlight usually implements and maintains tolerances ±0.005mm (±0.0002"), even tighterdepending on the part size, geometry and material. During project qualification, specific features are always discussed and confirmed.
