5-axis CNC Machining
5-axis CNC Machining Services
JUNSION's 5-axis cutting services offer speed and freedom that can't be beat. JUNSION can make the best 5-axis machined parts because we have a lot of modern 5-axis CNC tools and a long list of materials they can use.
Our skilled workers and advanced production tools enable us to quickly create and make complicated parts that need to be made quickly. With top-notch tools, knowledge, and years of experience, JUNSION uses two great setups to make accurate, complicated parts.
What is 5-Axis CNC Machining?
5-axis CNC machining is a high-tech way to make things that lets the cutting tool move in five different directions at the same time. This feature is necessary to make complicated, high-precision parts more quickly and with fewer setups. 5-axis machining services are used by industries like aircraft, automotive, and medical device production to make very precise parts with a lot of moving parts.
Core Advantages:
- Complex Geometry Capability - Machine intricate parts with undercuts, angled features, and curved surfaces that traditional 3-axis machines cannot reach
- Superior Surface Finish - Achieve better surface quality with shorter cutting tools and optimal cutting angles, reducing post-processing time
- Reduced Setup Time - Complete complex parts in one setup, eliminating multiple repositioning steps and improving accuracy
5-Axis CNC Machining Capabilities
Our ISO 9001 certification shows that we fabricate 5-axis milled parts to meet the tightest tolerance requirements. Our standard tolerance for CNC-milled plastics is ISO-2768-m and ISO-2768-f for metals. Get high-quality and precise complex parts with top-notch dimensional stability.

5 Axis CNC Machining Design Guidelines
| Recommended Size | |
|---|---|
| Minimum Feature Size | Minimum feature size should be no less than 0.5 mm in width or depth to ensure structural integrity. |
| Linear Dimension | Maintain a precision within ±0.005 mm for linear dimensions to ensure accuracy across the machined part. |
| Hole Diameters (not reamed) | Holes can be machined with diameters starting from 1 mm up to 40 mm without reaming for precision sizing. |
| Shaft Diameters | Shaft diameters should range from 2 mm to 300 mm, considering the tool accessibility and torque requirements. |
| Threads and Tapped Holes | Threads from M2 to M24 can be machined. Ensure to provide adequate relief at the bottom of tapped holes. |
| Text | Minimum text height of 1.5 mm with a depth of 0.5 mm for clarity after machining. |
