Technical Overview – AB 5-Axis Cutting Head
The AB 5-axis waterjet cutting head is engineered for precision machining of complex 3D geometries. It features dual-axis articulation—A-axis (rotation around X) and B-axis (rotation around Y)—enabling the cutting jet to tilt and rotate simultaneously. This configuration allows the head to follow optimal cutting paths at variable angles, eliminating the need to reposition the workpiece.
The system ensures highly accurate contouring, reduced taper, and improved cutting consistency, especially on inclined or curved surfaces. Its advanced motion control also helps minimize tool wear and achieve cleaner finishes. This technology is widely used across industries requiring intricate, multi-angle processing, including aerospace, automotive, medical, and mold manufacturing.
