DB-FIX-5AXIS-01

Rotary fixture for 5-axis machining centres

Name: Rotary fixture for 5-axis machining centres
Brand: Dongben Workholding
SKU: DB-FIX-5AXIS-01
Availability: InStock

Keeps the part clear of the tool axis in every orientation, without losing location.

5-axisRotaryTrunnionCollision-checked

A rotary fixture for 5-axis work: the part is held on a trunnion or a faceplate so that all five faces can be reached in one set-up, while the locating scheme stays rigid enough for finishing passes at long tool overhang.

The design problem in 5-axis workholding is rarely clamping force — it is access. We start from the tool vector and the holder envelope, then place clamps and supports where they cannot collide, and only then size the structure.

Technical data

Location accuracy	0.01 mm; repeatability 0.005 mm
Body	Stress-relieved steel weldment or cast iron, ground faces
Clamping	Pneumatic, hydraulic or manual, with low-profile clamps
Balance	Static balance for rotation up to 60 rpm, per your table
Interface	Zero-point pallet, T-slots or direct bolt pattern
Verification	Collision check in CAM, CMM report, trial cut video

How it is built

Designed from the tool vector backwards

We ask for your CAM file or at least the tool list and holder model. Clamps are placed against a collision model, not against a guess, and the fixture is checked in the same CAM session you will use.

Stiffness where it is measured

Long overhang amplifies every weak joint. Ribs, wall thickness and the clamp stack are sized for the finishing pass, not just for the roughing load.

Repeatable re-mounting

A ground pallet interface and a fixed zero point mean the fixture can come off the table on Friday and be back in position on Monday within 0.01 mm.

Questions

Will it fit my machine's working envelope?

Send the table drawing and the rotary axis specification. We check the swing diameter, the clamp height and the reachable volume before quoting, and we state the usable envelope in the drawing.

Can the fixture be rotated at full speed?

Up to the balance limit stated in the drawing, typically 60 rpm for the trunnion assemblies. Higher speeds require dynamic balancing, which we quote separately.

Do you support simultaneous 5-axis finishing?

Yes — that is the design target. The fixture is modelled and collision-checked against your holder and tool assembly, and the report is delivered with the drawing package.

What if my part changes slightly?

Replaceable jaws and adjustable supports absorb small revisions. If the change is larger, we re-machine the top plate rather than the whole body.
