5th Axis CNC Rotary Tables for Multi-Angle Machining
A 5th axis CNC rotary table combines rotation and tilting so a workpiece can be positioned at multiple angles. It can reduce repeated manual clamping when machining several faces, angled holes, fixtures, molds and small complex components.
These tables can be evaluated for indexed 3+2 positioning or for integrated simultaneous machining, depending on the table design, servo system and CNC control. An external retrofit controller is mainly intended for positioning and indexing. Applications requiring continuous coordinated X/Y/Z/A/C motion need a CNC control, servo configuration and CAM postprocessor that support true simultaneous 5-axis machining.
Selection Information
- Workpiece dimensions, weight and center of gravity
- Required tilt and rotation ranges
- Table diameter, center height and machine clearance
- Cutting torque, brake rigidity and allowable overhang
- Indexing accuracy and repeatability
- CNC control brand, model and available interfaces
- Indexed positioning or simultaneous machining requirement
Choosing the correct table requires checking the complete machine and process rather than table diameter alone. For an indexed retrofit, review the YD-1 external axis controller and our CNC rotary table retrofit solution. Contact us with machine photos and workpiece information for compatibility evaluation.
