This subject gives in depth knowledge to students regarding multi axis machining. As compared to basic CNC machining which comprises of 3 linear axes namely X, Y and Z axis, multi axis machining gives further capability to machine complex parts with the additional rotary axis A, B and C as well as mill-turn and turn-mill capability. Understanding machines configuration will be key to avoid collision during machining. Students will be introduced to different types of machine configuration and machine
kinematics to have better understanding of machine tools in order to create effective and safe CNC machining programs.
