b-axis machining
Accelerate Your Success
When you need speed and accuracy for complex parts with angular cutting (think medical devices and aerospace),
B-axis machines deliver results while reducing production time.
DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOUR SHOP?
- Do you currently require secondary operations for complex parts with angular cutting?
- Do you spend time moving workpieces to second machines?
- Do you cut prismatic parts and/or require simultaneous machining?
With B-axis machines, the milling spindle enables you to achieve cutting results on the horizontal plane between the two turning spindles, giving you up to 3 tools in the cut at one time.
- Get the head in at 90 degrees for end work.
- Achieve angular cuts on the OD to do more complex work without changeovers.
- Index your turret for high angles to avoid using angle holders.
- Run operations with faster cycle times.
