Powerful 5-Axis Trunnion CNC Milling Machine Machining Metal Parts
- Dec 06, 2025
This video showcases a trunnion-type 5-axis CNC metal milling machine, a classic and powerful solution designed for machining a wide variety of small metal parts.
At its core is a precision trunnion unit (featuring A-axis and C-axis) that securely holds and rotates the workpiece. The combination of these two rotational degrees of freedom allows the tool to approach any point on the workpiece from virtually any angle, unlocking the ability to create complex geometries in a single setup.
Key Features for Precision & Efficiency:
Integrated 5-Axis Trunnion: Enables simultaneous multi-face machining of complex contours, eliminating the need for multiple setups.
Infrared Touch Probe: Dramatically speeds up production by automating workpiece positioning, and machining accuracy checks, ensuring consistent quality.
ATC Spindle & Tool Magazine: The Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) spindle, paired with a tool magazine, allows for on-demand tool changes during machining cycles, enabling complex, multi-tool operations without manual intervention.
Automatic Tool Setter: Works in tandem with the ATC. After each tool change, it automatically measures and compensates for the new tool's tip position, guaranteeing accuracy and saving valuable setup time.
Comprehensive Cooling Systems: A water-cooled spindle and a flood coolant system work together to effectively manage heat during extended metal cutting operations. This maintains optimal temperatures, protects machine components, ensures sustained accuracy, and extends overall machine life.
Application:
Prototyping, precision components, molds, and any application requiring complex 3D shapes on small to medium-sized metal workpieces.
