Our 5-Axis Machining Solutions
First Mold has been using 5-axis CNC centers for 11 years. Our machining capability balances both speed and precision. By skillfully applying 3+2 positional machining and full 5-axis simultaneous milling, we provide our customers with two main services: precision rapid prototyping and low-volume production.
5-axis CNC prototyping is one of our primary means of achieving rapid prototyping. Our fastest machining lead time can be as short as 3 days. Typically, customers entrust us with prototype quantities of up to 50 pieces. 5-axis CNC prototyping is commonly used for functional/assembly testing prototypes, patent application samples, exhibition display parts, and rapid design feasibility verification.
5-axis low-volume production typically stays within 1,000 pieces. Dimensional accuracy for all workpieces can be consistently held to ±0.01 mm (with a limit of ±0.005 mm). This solution is suitable for pre-market small-batch trial production, market validation orders, small OEM supporting orders, equipment spare parts, permanent low-volume supply without the need for mold making, and transitional production projects.

5-Axis Solutions & Case Studies
First Mold’s 5‑axis CNC machining services are trusted by innovators in aerospace, medical and robotics sectors, while we also serve most industries. However, we do not recommend 5‑axis machining for every project. When your workpieces have simple structures and less stringent requirements, our engineers will recommend 3‑axis or 4‑axis milling solutions to reduce costs.

5 Axis Machining FAQ
Do you support 5-axis machining from customer-supplied samples?
Yes. We can perform reverse modeling, measurement, and program creation based on physical samples to achieve precise machining. Please provide the sample and key dimensional information; we will handle the rest.
Can you quote and machine parts with only 2D drawings?
Do you offer volume discounts for long-term 5-axis machining orders?
Can your 5-axis centers process conductive and anti-static modified plastics?
What is the maximum part size your 5-axis machines can handle?
Can you guarantee on-time delivery during peak production seasons?
Do you produce food-grade or cleanroom-grade 5-axis parts?
Currently we do not have an on-site food-grade or cleanroom environment. However, we have spare space and equipment, and can temporarily set up such clean or sanitary facilities through negotiation. Specific solutions and costs depend on the required grade and batch quantity.
