1. The Power of Five
Don’t get left behind…

2. Machine Configurations
Trunion Machines
Swivel Machines

3. 3-Axis vs. 5-Sided
…old vs. new

4. Let’s Compare… 3-Axis Machining
Multiple setups for each side of the same part
Increased setup time
Decreased accuracy
5-Sided Machining
Reduces setup times
Increases part accuracy
Increases shop capability

5. Traditional Setup
Standard 6” Vise
Typical Vise Stop
Multiple Operations
5-Sided Setup
Bolted directly to fixture
No Stop necessary
Two Operations

10. Workholding
…but I can only hold one part at a time

11. Good

12. Better

13. Operation 1
Operation 2
…be creative

14. Part

15. Programming 5-sided
…how easy is it? …can I do it?
