5 axis machining is unique in its ability to effectively process part sizes and shapes with essentially infinite possibilities. Like 3 axis machines, the cutting tool of a 5 axis machining center moves across the X, Y, and Z linear axes, but also rotates on the A and B axes – allowing the cutting tool to approach components from any direction. An experienced machinist can achieve incredibly complicated geometries with high precision when using all 5 axes in conjunction. The skilled and highly experienced CNC machinists and programmers at China Machining Parts are capable of machining complex shapes, undercuts, and complicated angles – all in one setup to boot.
The ability to machine a component to completion in a single setup not only adds to the precision achieved during machining but also reduces tooling costs, overhead costs, and labor time, resulting in the lowest possible cost per part. 5 axis machining centers eliminate several inadequacies of conventional CNC machining techniques, including multiple setups, part transfers, and inspections; part handling, and errors associated with human involvement/interference.
5 axis machining is used across a number of industries to produce precision dependent components with fast manufacturing times and repeatable accuracy, including:
China Machining Parts serves these industries and more, consistently exceeding industry quality standards and the capabilities of normal CNC machine shops. We are happy to take on prototype or production machining work.
Understanding the full capabilities for 5-axis machining is the difference between an ordinary component and an extraordinary one. CNC machinists trained to use CNC machines may not have the knowledge or expertise to get the most from 5-axis technology, but China Machining Parts is different. We have an arsenal of the best 5-axis machinery on the market produced by the best brands, and are always operated by expert machinists who know how to utilize 5-axis technology for your particular components.
China uses the best CNC machines manufactured by AGIE, Hermle, DMG, Okuma, and more. We have consistently delivered remarkable results using our 5-axis machining services for multiple industries all over the China.
While electrical discharge machining is a more popular choice in medical machining, 5 axis milling still plays a key role in certain medical, dental, and ophthalmic applications. If you’re manufacturing medical devices, surgical instrumentation, or other related equipment, China can handle your 5-axis machining demands; delivering the highest precision results. Our engineers are dedicated to achieving the exact specifications you set forth; ensuring the deliverables promised to you are recieved on time and within budget. With decades of experience working with medical product manufacturers, designers, and engineers, you can trust our machine shop to complete the job as expected.
Some of the medical products 4-axis or 5-axis machined by China includes:
In many cases, a 3 axis CNC machine can do the work of a 5 axis CNC machine – not to say with the exact same precision. The main difference is the setup and fixturing time. Setting up a single job on a 3 axis CNC machine can take 5 hours for one piece, including the rotations needed to complete the fabrication. Setup and fixturing of the same job on a 5 axis CNC machine would take less than 2 hours. Cycle time is also significantly decreased by using a 5 axis machine over a 3 axis machine, reducing it by more than 1/3rd.
And, for repeat jobs, once the initial setup has been completed, the next time the job rolls around it is finished much quicker since the specifications are already programmed into the machine. Less time spent setting up and fixturing machines means better turnaround times, and more opportunities to take on other jobs.
We strive to be the premier Machine Shop for the China, producing quality products that won’t fail when put to the test.
Jobs We Have Completed using 5 Axis Machining:
The benefits of 5 axis machining aren’t limited to their precision cutting and curved hole cutting capabilities. The entire production process is improved when 3 axis capabilities upgrade to 5 axis capabilities, opening the door for new possibilities in future jobs.

China Machining Parts has consistently delivered remarkable results using their 5 axis machining services. If you are seeking impeller or turbine work, you know the complexity of this component’s contours. We seek these challenges, knowing our equipment and 5 axis machine operators have the skills to make impellers with the highest accuracy and precision, no matter the size demands.
China has also created inserts that are used for eye glass molding – not the frame but the actual mold for the prescription glasses. Though this may sound simple, it is anything but. Visualize the complex curvatures of a bi-focal lens. Now make it a progressive bi-focal; add astigmatism and off center axes. Many CNC machine shops are not capable of producing the surface tolerance and integrity achieved with the same precision as China’ 5 axis machinists. This is just one example of how our team's mathematical skills benefit customers.
Another example showcasing our incredible dedication to precision is the production of collimators. Collimators demand ultra-high precision and accuracy to create a high number of holes (depending on its size, a collimator can have 500-1000 holes), each next hole pointing at a different angle than the proceeding hole, with a positional accuracy to be within 5µ to 10µ and an angular accuracy to be within +/- 0.002°. China meets these challenges head on, and successfully achieves the exact specifications these components require—accurately machining each hole so they meet at one focal point.
A third example is the main axial impeller used in the heart pump for VAD—Ventricular Assist Devices. When machining medical devices, precision and accuracy is of the utmost importance - China is dedicated to meeting these requirements, delivering precision machined components safe enough to implant within the human body.
Quote from the heart pump manufacturer/customer:
“Your people have achieved, within 6 months, what others took 2 years to make, and your tolerances were better.”
