5 Axis CNC Machining Services

Our Machine Shop Guaranteeing Ultra Precision with 5 Axis Machines

OPTEC provides 5 axis CNC machining services that achieve an angular tolerance of two- thousandths of a degree (.002°). We specialize in true 5 axis contour machining, manufacturing “almost impossible to make” 5 axis components with ease. It takes more than just excellent machining and programming skills to perform true 5 axis work. Our manufacturing engineers are remarkable machinists and have been with OPTEC for 20 - 30+ years. They fix, program, and set up the machines, as well as produce the components themselves, running the job until all the fine-tuning is complete no matter how complex the parts are that an order calls for.

Benefits of 5 Axis Machining

Workpieces are not moved through several workstations, they can be completed on the 5 Axis machine alone—finishing components with greater accuracy Less fixture preparation—saving time and money Single setup required for machining complex shapes—increasing productivity Can use shorter cutting tools—producing higher cutting speeds and fewer tool vibrations for higher precision Ability to achieve outstanding surface finishes—improving overall part quality The ability to machine a component to completion in a single setup not only adds to the precision achieved during machining but also reduces tooling costs, overhead costs, and labor time, resulting in the lowest possible cost per part. 5 axis machining centers eliminate several inadequacies of conventional CNC machining techniques, including multiple setups, part transfers, and inspections; part handling, and errors associated with human involvement/interference. 5 axis machining is used across a number of industries to produce precision dependent components with fast manufacturing times and repeatable accuracy, including: Military Satellites Aircrafts Aerospace Photonics Medical Devices Tools & Dies OPTEC serves these industries and more, consistently exceeding industry quality standards and the capabilities of normal CNC machine shops. We are happy to take on prototype or production machining work. OPTEC has consistently delivered remarkable results using their 5 axis machining services. If you are seeking impeller or turbine work, you know the complexity of this component’s contours. We seek these challenges, knowing our equipment and 5 axis machine operators have the skills to make impellers with the highest accuracy and precision, no matter the size demands.

Clients throughout the nation come to OPTEC with their CNC machining challenges, especially for complex components other Machine Shops were incapable of machining to their exact specifications. Our 5-axis milling advancements combined with skillful WireCut EDM micromachining experts provide superior products, while making micro manufacturing more efficient. OPTEC delivers perfection from 5-axis milling capabilities, guaranteeing client satisfaction in every product. Trust us with all of your micromachining needs, no matter the complexity. Problem Parts?
