Modern product design increasingly pushes the limits of manufacturability. Engineers are now expected to deliver parts with compound curves, internal channels, variable draft angles, and multiple critical features—all on the same part. Traditional 3-axis machining often falls short in meeting these requirements.
At Minnexon, we specialize in simultaneous 5-axis CNC machining, which allows us to tackle complex geometries with surgical precision. We eliminate multiple setups, reduce part handling, and significantly improve both geometric consistency and surface finish.
Scenario 1: Your part has undercut features or angled holes on non-orthogonal surfaces.
With 3-axis: Multiple setups are required, increasing misalignment risks.
With 5-axis: Tool orientation adapts in real time, accessing features from any angle in one setup.
Scenario 2: Surface finish needs to be uniform across multi-directional curves.
With 3-axis: Surface mismatch and visible step lines occur between toolpaths.
With 5-axis: Continuous tool engagement and ideal vector alignment produce flawless finishes.
Scenario 3: Tool overhang is long, increasing chatter and deflection.
With 5-axis: The machine adjusts tool angle to minimize stick-out and maximize rigidity.
Our advanced 5-axis equipment and deep understanding of dynamic toolpaths allow us to:
We’re not just machine operators—we’re engineers who speak your language. Whether you’re designing for manufacturability (DFM), solving tricky CAM programming issues, or trying to hit tight tolerance windows, we can advise, prototype, and scale.
We help you machine what others say is “not machinable.”
