Abstract

Today, the application of CNC machine in manufacturing production are important especially automotive industry, aerospace industry, and aircraft industry. The usage of CNC machines in these all the fields were able produce the parts more accurate as compared to manually operations process. CNC machines consist various of configuration with the different type of axis system and machining center. The aims of this paper describe the comparison accuracy of the five-axis simultaneous CNC machine and nine-axis turn-mill CNC machine. CATIA V5 is used as CAM simulation advanced machining software to control CNC machine and compute the tool cutting path strategy as simulating the real cutting process. BMW car rim design machining by using these two CNC machines respectively. 3D scanner was chosen as the equipment for measuring the physical geometry dimensional accuracy of the machining parts. Then analysis process to the results of the geometry parts. The result of this study is in 5 axes simultaneous machine more accurate in surface accuracy as compare to nine-axis turn-mill CNC machine. However, in term of machining time turn-mill will be faster than 5-axis simultaneous milling machine. There were several things that needed to improve in result is the machine setting, parameter setting in CAM program and analysis software setting.
