Benefits of CNC Sliding Head Machining

By investing in our 5 Axis CNC machining services our customers experience a range of benefits, improving manufacturing output in a measurable way.

 

  • Increased accuracy and precision – a 5 axis CNC machine operates with greater precision than traditional 3 axis CNC machinery. It allows for a higher level of complexity in potential parts and components.

 

  • Lower lead times – production speed is important with any project and the arrangement of the cutting tools on a 5 axis CNC machine means that cycle times are much faster, with a greater potential output.

 

  • Simple setup a 5 axis machine allows for all pieces you have to be set up at one time, even for complex geometries. This means faster production, with minimised errors and operational costs.

 

  • Complexity increased one of the major benefits over a 3 axis machine is that you no longer have to remove workpieces during manufacturing. Instead, complicated angles and geometries can be processes with high efficacy and accuracy.

 

  • Improved finish – the material is much closer on a 5 axis machine, meaning a better finish on the surface, even with the most complex of parts. Tighter angles can be reached with the improved drilling process present within this setup.

Our Services

Sliding Head

Our use of sliding head lathes ensures that cycle times and costs are significantly reduced. Achieving up to 39 machining positions with 8 axes, often a component can be completed in one single set-up, improving efficiencies.

CNC Milling

Our CNC machining services allow for the creation of complex milled parts at velocity. This expands the potential range of materials without minimising efficiency and standards. We can manufacture complex parts in a wide range of sizes, quantities, and with multiple angled features.

CNC Turning

Our team continues to refresh our fleet of machines, investing significantly in our Turning and Mill/Turn technology. This allows us to remain ahead of the game, providing a tailored service and solution to our customers that is hard to match within the industry.

The 3 axis CNC machining services offer the best value in the industry for small CNC machines. It packs a punch, an efficient smaller package that delivers big results and high standards of productivity. The best way to maintain productivity in a smaller space.

4 axis CNC machining is where the 4th axis rotates whilst the machine is not cutting, aiding precision. Our range of CNC machining services is designed to offer a wide range of precision to fit any manufacturing complexities and demand.

We continue to innovate, refining our 5 axis CNC machining services for maximum output at reduced time and cost. The 5 axis provides you with the power and precision for myriad uses, maintaining accuracy and delivering consistently.

Utilising the very latest technology in CAD/CAM helps us to provide compliance and consistent manufacturing processes for our clients. It helps us to deliver CNC machining services that are precise, complete the process right the first time and reduce lead times.

CMM inspection is another service Rotec offers to boost the accuracy and consistency of manufacturing processes. It involved precision CMM inspection services that takes CAD models and 2D drawing formats and provides a detailed report tailored to each client and process.

Creating a prototype is an important part of the manufacturing process. Our services allow our clients to see a product, part, or concept in action before making a decision on whether to continue production or make necessary changes.

INDUSTRIES

Our 5 Axis CNC Machining Company

Our 5 Axis CNC Machining Services make up part of our wider precision engineering service offerings. We work with customers within the energy, medical, automotive, and aerospace industries, to name just a few. The Rotec team continues to invest in the latest technologies, looking to boost efficiencies, manufacturing capabilities and output, increase productivity and accuracy of machining, whilst lowering costs and production lead times for our customers with often strict requirements.
