This chapter introduces the basic concepts and principles of multiaxis machining.
Upon completion of this chapter, you should be able to do the following:
INTRODUCTION
There are many different Multiaxis machine tool configurations. Most control three linear (XYZ) plus two
rotational axes. The rotational axes are some combination of (ABC), depending on the machine design.
Multiaxis machines are indispensable for manufacturing parts common in the aerospace, mold, and die
industries.
This chapter presents the basic concepts and knowledge you need to understand Multiaxis machines and
toolpaths. By the time you finish this book, you will have a good understanding of Multiaxis machines. You will
also know how to use Mastercam Multiaxis to program these interesting and versatile machines.
• Identify common Multiaxis machine tool configurations.
• Understand the difference between Multiaxis position and simultaneous Multiaxis toolpaths.
• Identify common Multiaxis machine tool configurations.
• Understand the difference between Multiaxis positioning and Multiaxis simultaneous toolpaths.
• Understand the different types of Multiaxis toolpaths, and the capabilities and advantages they provide over conventional toolpaths.
