5-AXIS MILLING
WHY CHOOSE EXCEL MFG., INC. FOR YOUR 5-AXIS MILLING NEEDS?
Excel Mfg. Inc. provides the capability of 5-axis milling to our customers. The advantage of this technology allows our company to produce highly precise components much more efficiently. The result of this process means more work can be completed with less setup time and less downtime. 5-axis milling also provides the advantage of increased positional tolerances from feature to feature on different planes of a given part. We have been able to streamline the output of our customers’ parts that require complex milling of difficult-to-machine parts.
The implementation of full 5-axis milling allows Excel Mfg., Inc. the ability to machine parts with a very high level of difficulty, such as impellers. This technology allows the spindle and milling tool to achieve complex angles and very dynamic machine movement that cannot be achieved with other types of equipment.

THE BENEFITS OF 5-axis milling
A 5-axis machine has two more axes than the historically more common 3-axis machine. “5 axis” means that the cutting tool can access the part in 5 directions instead of 3, allowing for more movement and rotation. With a 5th axis, we can machine up to 5 faces in just one operation, making the process both highly precise and efficient. 5th-axis machines are best used for parts that require complex movements.
When you integrate 5-axis milling, you can make parts that would otherwise seem impossible. This process allows you to mill, bore, and tap multiple complex shapes in just one setup. Just one setup can create any combination of complex shapes. Whether you want a prototype or need a huge order completed, you can trust Excel Manufacturing Inc. to meet your needs with our 5-axis machining services. We’ll help you save time and achieve greater precision.
Benefits:
The number of setups is minimized: Using the 5-axis technology versus conventional 3 -0xis machining requires fewer setups to create a part with complex geometry.
Often eliminates the need for complex fixtures: 5-axis milling eliminates the need and cost of creating the fixtures because the part can be held once and rotated to create the geometry.
Faster material removal: 5-axis milling allows for the cutting tool to remain tangential to the cutting surface. Lower cycle times and costs are achieved because more material can be removed with each tool pass.
Better surface finishes: Better surface finishes result from using the 5-axis capabilities on contoured geometry. With traditional 3-axis machining, very minor cuts must be used in order to create a good surface finish resulting in longer lead times.
We are proud to manufacture our products 100% in the USA.
