Five-axis machining center are roughly divided into three types: table type, spindle type and hybrid type. Each type differs in structure and positioning of axes.
However, the general direction of movement of the axis is roughly as follows:
X-axis: vertical direction of tool spindle
Y axis: forward and backward direction of tool spindle
Z axis: left and right direction of tool spindle
B-axis: along which the tool spindle rotates
C axis: along which the tool spindle rotates
In some multi-axis equipment, there will also be a B2 auxiliary axis, but it is not the 6th axis.
