That is really cool!

Wow. How many axis of motion are we seeing in that video? The table looks like it turns and pivots, and the milling head does as well. Is it considered a 7 axis machine?
Steve
I think its more than 1 machine possibly.

5-axis machine

wonder what the sell for?

As equipped with balanced tooling and the software to generate such motions puts the setup likely close to $500K. Factor in the air compressor required to generate adequate chip removal and the guy to program it and someone to setup and operate without crashing.
Ok, I guess I'm not sure what constitutes an axis. I've seen large robotic arms in action that were called 5 axis, but this machine appears to have even more freedom of movement than those. Anyone care to explain?
Regardless, it's absolutely awesome. Trying to wrap my head around the CAM part alone and it's making my head hurt.

In strict terms, there are 7 axes on that machine. The table has 2 axes and the spindle head has another 2 axes. Combine those with the conventional XYZ and there are 7 servo motors to control (not including the spindle motor for rigid tapping).
that was really cool, see how close that spindle head came to the helmet at some points??!?! musta been within 0.05"!
I guess for such things as this youd need to have a full sim of the machine youre using and have the tooling set 100% as it is in the sim?
Thats about what I figured. Doing turbine impellers would be a snap on that thing!Originally Posted by Caprirs
