What does 7 axis capability mean?
It means that highly complex parts (the kind that once required multiple operations often on different machines) can now be produced at one time on one machine. It means tighter tolerances, less handling, less chance for error, faster thru put which all results in quicker delivery, lower cost and higher quality. In one example, a part which formerly required complex operations on three separate machines can now be dropped off complete from just one 7 axis machine.
