    5-axis conversions

    Hi, I am a total newbie to CNCzone and a newbie to machining in general. I hope I am posting in the right place.

    My shop partner just purchased an Acer CNC with the works and we're looking to convert it to 5-axis to port motorcycle cylinder heads. We will be running either Camsoft Pro or MasterCam X3 software so we should have the software covered. However, what is involved in making the machine work correctly?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Mike

    This section is for LittleMachineShop brand CNC mills so you might have better luck trying another section.
