5-Axis Simultaneous Machining Reduces Cycle Time For Complex Impeller
See how an Okuma multi-tasking, 5-axis machine dramatically improves machining time for an aluminum impeller.
Using the BlueSwarf tap testing and dashboard to determine end mill cutting parameters, an Okuma GENOS M560V vertical machining center (VMC) is captured on video as it engages in various dynamic machining methods.
Also involved in the cutting of an 4140 steel (36Rc) workpiece are Esprit CAM software, Seco tools and Fahrion tool holders.
