5-Axis CNC Mill-Turn Machines

Turning and Multi-Angle Milling on One Platform

Five-axis CNC mill-turn machines are intended for complex parts that combine rotational surfaces with features at multiple angles. Consolidating these operations can reduce setup changes and improve consistency between turned and milled geometry.

This category includes the Handemo HTMC800S, HTMC500T and HTMC800T. Select from the individual model specifications only after the complete feature set and process have been reviewed.

When Five-Axis Mill-Turn Is Justified

Evaluate tool orientation, simultaneous or indexed motion requirements, collision clearance, workholding, material, tolerances, surface finish, tooling and inspection. A simpler Y-axis machine may be sufficient for some parts, while complex multi-angle features can justify a 5-axis configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 5-axis mill-turn the same as a 5-axis machining center?

No. A mill-turn machine is built around turning capability as well as milling, while a machining center has a different primary architecture.

What information is needed for process review?

Provide the full drawing or 3D model, material, blank, critical tolerances, target volume and preferred workholding method.
