MULTI-AXIS MACHINING SYSTEMS AND RELATED METHODS

摘要

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a multi-axis machining system (e.g., a milling machine) that may have multiple moveable and/or rotatable axes. For instance, the multi-axis machining system may be computer numerically controlled (CNC), such that a controller may activate or control movement along and/or rotation about the axes of the multi-axis machining system.

主权项

1. A multi-axis machining system comprising:
a first rotary table including a work surface rotatable about an B-axis relative to an approximately horizontal support surface; a second rotary table including a mounting surface rotatable about a A-axis relative to the horizontal support surface, the second rotary table being linearly moveable along a Y-axis that is approximately perpendicular to the horizontal support surface, the first rotary table being secured to the mounting surface of the second rotary table; a spindle head securing a spindle, the spindle head being linearly moveable along a Z-axis relative to the horizontal support surface and toward and away from the work surface of the first rotary table, the Z-axis being approximately perpendicular to the Y axis and approximately parallel to the horizontal surface.
