019 Milling: What is a 5-axis machining?

We will introduce an overview of the 5-axis machining machine, one of the most advanced cutting machines, and the parts that can be made with 5-axis machining. It is suitable for manufacturing high value-added parts such as aircraft parts and impellers.

018 Milling: Avoiding undercut by design change

We will introduce examples of changes made to the design of the undercut section. There are methods such as making the shape go through, making it into a shape that can be processed with a T-slot cutter, adding a shape for processing, and dividing it.

017 Milling: Undercut that are difficult for milling

We will explain examples of undercut shapes that are difficult to cut and how to process them. Machining by die-sinker electric discharge or welding is also possible, but the cost and construction time may be significantly higher.

016 Milling: The best way called design change!

We will introduce typical examples that are prone to deformation, such as bifurcated shapes and long holes near the edges. By changing the design to a shape that is less prone to deformation, manufacturing will proceed more smoothly.

013 Milling: 3D processing and surface roughness

We will explain how to process three-dimensional shapes and surface roughness by cutting using a ball end mill. I think it's a good idea to keep in mind that there are rough processing and finishing steps, and each has a different purpose.

009 Milling: Working surface and setup change

We will explain the machining surfaces that are important in cutting and the concept of changeover during machining. Reducing the number of processed surfaces reduces the number of processed surfaces, which leads to cost reductions.

008 Milling: Types and features of milling machines

We will introduce the types and characteristics of cutting machines. Milling-type processing machines can be broadly classified into general-purpose milling cutters, NC milling cutters, and machining centers, but their characteristics and uses also differ.

006 Milling: Example of hole machining trouble

Hole drilling is a process that is extremely troublesome. We will introduce examples of problems related to hole machining, such as holes that are too deep and curved, or too close and raised, and how to deal with them.

004 Milling: Types and characteristics of end mills

We will introduce the types and characteristics of end mills for cutting. It is broadly divided into shape machining and hole machining, and many types and sizes are used for each.

003 Milling: Corner radius and L/D

We will explain the corner radius and L/D constraints specific to cutting. If you imagine the machining process and set the radius and cutting depth, you will get a reasonable design.
