3 axis CNC milling is an extremely precise process, where the workpiece moves in three directions. This means that your machine can cut and carve complex shapes, while it also allows you to machine complex materials such as wood, metal and plastic
Although 3 axis CNC milling has been around for a long time, there are still many people who have never heard of it. Here are 10 things you probably didn't know about 3 axis CNC milling
1. The term ※3 axis§ refers to the coordinate system that defines the movement of the tool. In this case, we are referring to the X-Y-Z axes which are used to move the workpiece
2. A 3 axis machine lets you operate in three dimensions (X, Y and Z). This means that you can make cuts with or without gravity (vertical) and even carve concave or convex surfaces. You can also use your machine for drilling holes into materials like wood or metal, which is something that 2 axis machines cannot do
