Dear Industry Expert,
When cutting smaller parts on a traditional A-axis trunnion, the tools approach the part from behind the A-axis trunnion. This means when running smaller 5-axis parts on larger machines, the operator is forced to use longer tools for clearance. |

Sustainable metal cutting: for people, planet and profit
When working with metal, a poor choice of tool or machining strategy can be the difference between success and failure. Waste material, poor productivity and scrap components are all signs of an inadequate machining process. They’re also signs of unsustainable machining. With the right tools and processes in place, many sustainability gains can be made when cutting metal. But lots of machine shops aren’t realizing these advantages. More...
