What Is 3-Axis CNC Machining?

3-Achse CNC -Bearbeitung is a foundational manufacturing Technologie that uses three orthogonal linear axes (X, Y, Z) to shape raw materials into 3D parts. Unlike manual machining or 2-axis systems (limited to flat surfaces), it relies on Computer Numerical Control (CNC) to automate tool movement along three dimensions:​

• X-Axis: Left/right horizontal movement (across the machine bed).​

• Y-Axis: Forward/backward horizontal movement (perpendicular to the X-axis).​

• Z-Axis: Up/down vertical movement (controls the cutting tool’s depth into the material).​

Der Prozessübersicht is intuitive: A CNC system interprets a digital design (CAD -Datei) to generate instructions for the machine. The cutting tool (Z.B., Mühle, bohren) moves along the X/Y/Z axes to remove material from the workpiece, creating features like holes, Slots, or curved surfaces.​

To explain “Wie es funktioniert” simply: Imagine a high-precision drill that can move left/right, forward/backward, and up/down—all guided by a computer. Zum Beispiel, when making a plastic electronics enclosure, the machine first uses the X/Y axes to position the tool, then the Z-axis to cut the enclosure’s outline, and finally repeats the process to add holes for ports. This simplicity, paired with automation, makes 3-Achse CNC -Bearbeitung the workhorse of modern manufacturing.

​

Whether you need to machine a single titanium medical bracket or 10,000 acrylic consumer goods parts, our 3-axis capabilities scale to match your project’s complexity and volume.

The 3-Axis CNC Machining Process (Schritt für Schritt)

Unser Schritt-für-Schritt-Prozess is optimized for efficiency and precision, guiding your project from design to finished part:​

1. Design and CAD Modeling: We start by reviewing your CAD model (or creating one from sketches). Our engineers optimize the design for 3-axis machining—e.g., ensuring 3D features are accessible via X/Y/Z movements (avoiding undercuts that require more axes). Für Prototypen, we offer free design feedback to improve manufacturability.​

2. Cam -Programmierung: The CAD model is imported into CAM software (Mastercam, SolidWorks CAM), where we generate Werkzeugpfade—the exact routes the cutting tool will take along the X/Y/Z axes. We select tools based on material (Z.B., carbide end mills for titanium) and program speeds/feeds to balance precision and efficiency.​

3. Setup and Calibration: The workpiece is secured to the machine bed using custom Fixture Design (Z.B., vises for small parts, clamps for large sheets). We calibrate the X/Y/Z axes using laser measuring tools to ensure alignment—critical for consistent results. Cutting tools are loaded into the machine’s tool changer, Und coolant systems are activated.​

4. Bearbeitungsausführung: The CNC system runs the CAM program, automating tool movement along the X/Y/Z axes. Zum Beispiel, when milling an aluminum bracket, the tool first moves along X/Y to outline the part, then uses the Z-axis to cut pockets and drill holes. Our operators monitor the process in real time to adjust coolant flow or tool speeds if needed.​

Post-Machining Inspection: Nach der Bearbeitung, parts undergo rigorous checks. Wir verwenden CMMs (Koordinatenmessmaschinen) to verify dimensions against the CAD model, check surface finish with profilometers, and ensure tolerances are met. Parts requiring finishing move to Enttäuschung oder Polieren Schritte.
