5 Axis simultaneous

[padano]

Can we use Masso controller to drive a small 5 axis milling machine for dental industry. the main milling strategies are in 5 axis simultaneous.

Thanks,

Hi Meca,

Yes you can defiantly use all the 5 axis simultaneous using gcode with X, Y, Z, A & B axis data. Will you be able to share some photos of your design and what CAM software will you be using for generating the gcode.

here is our preliminary design. we plan to be open for any CAM software such SUM3D, hypermill, WorkNC ...

Thanks and yes that setup will work with full 5 axis control. Are you also putting a tool changer or it will be done manually.

also our tools station is on a rotating table driven by the 6th servo motor.

thanks, It will be a good idea to see how the tool changer will be controlled because if we are using all 5 axis for axis motion then we need to plan on the tool changer inputs and output signal requirments.
