Thank you for sharing tis video. There is not many DIY projects out there that have such a good mechanical design as you have built. I'm a senior mechanical engineer working on a DIY CNC machine too. I'm building a 3-axis machine that I later can expand with one or two more axis. My focus is on mechanical rigidity, precision and a large work volume in relation to outer dimensions. My project has been resting for some time but now you have inspired me to continue. Looking forward to see more from you!
This is beautiful. Solving problems is the best way to learn, and with the internet, degrees don't matter so much. I am very inspired by projects like this. Great job!
What a fantastic job you have done. I built my own 4 axis 4 foot machine and I can appreciate how much work and thought must have gone into yours. Also I appreciated the honest "warts and all" tour of the machine. We so often have to learn by doing.
I'm in the proccess of designing a slighly smaller cnc and a video about the cast granite epoxy frame would be great. This is the best home built 5th axis cnc I've seen yet.
This is beyond awesome! I built a 3 axis cnc and cant even wrap my head around adding a 4th or 5th... just the thought of working out the scripts is giving me a headache 😂
I’ve always had a dream to build a scaled down clone of a Hermle 5-axis, thank you for letting me see it in reality! I think with your excellent design and component decisions you will have an amazingly capable machine for years to come! Thank you for sharing anything you learned along the way (good and bad!).
I built a 4 axis machine from scratch 10 years ago, my advice is to use way covers and ballscrew covers, also route grease lines where needed for lubrication. Also think about chips, they will fly everywhere and strong coolant is worth every bit of effort. Mine uses strong mist blast, and that doesn't really cut it in many situations.
Thanks for sharing video... I can see many good design features. You should be proud of your work. I really would love to see you continue with a second and third versions,... You have talent mate..
Very nice! @6:25 Many machines don't bother with leadscrew supports on the Z axis so you can probably just live without the colliding bearing block. Again, what a great job 👍👍
Thank you. That's right, the Sorotecs for example don't have one. To be honest it is quite handy tobhave this piece of steel at the end of the z axis to put a magnetic indicator stand on the otherwise aluminum part. Fixing the clearence is no big deal.
Oh my God!.. I was dreaming about such a 5 axis cnc... and you have already built that in real life... Great work!.. my best wishes and congratulations to you, friend!..

Awesome project! Would be interesting to learn more about part sourcing (Mesa cards in Europe, industrial components, spindle, etc) and the casting process of the main body. Looking forward to the first chips! 👏
Thank you, I bought the cards already a year ago where you could just buy them. Simpler times back then. The Spindle I found on ebay, I absolutely don't have that kind of money to buy this one new. On my Instagram I have a post about the casting. I did not tok a lot of videos during the build process of the machine, only some pictures.
@@fabianbrock Thanks for the reply! Maybe some more questions (for a later video): What's your professional background (you mentioned it's not in machining/engineering) and how do you go about acquiring the required knowledge? Did you do any FEA simulations or trusted the Hermle design (square-cube law implications for scaling)? Did you consider noise/vibration dampening/decoupling in the design of the machine or its enclosure? Will you be able to run it with other people/neighbors present? How will you implement cooling/flooding?
I did a quick simulation in Fusion. Turns out the long z axis is of course the weakness, the rest dies not matter at all compared to this. But mainly I relied on the Hermle design. Another important part was not exceeding 100kg per part so I can carry it in the first floor. I can give more details on the design considerations in a future video.
@@fabianbrock weight is a huge issue if you don't live in the ground floor or have a small garage or you're renting the apartment, I've been designing my components to be max 200kg's so that 4 huge german guys can carry it upstairs or downstairs, 50kg per person seems reasonable. I hav to say though, the thin walls on your design make me really anxious. are the glass scales from china?
I like the fact that the machine scares you, thought I was the only one... 🤣🤣 It's really an impressive build! Congratulations. Subscribed and waiting to see it cutting shiny stuff 😁
Looking forward to any update ^^. More in depth info is also welcome. I'm currently finishing a 3 axis cnc with the idea to make parts to convert it to 5 axis.
There were quite some questions in the comments, maybe I make a video about the design details etc. Soon I will also be able to continue the build. I wish you success for your cnc build. Is it shared somewhere public?
Dear Sir, For a person with no mechanical engineering background as you said; to have built something as complex as 3 axis machine would have been quite a feat but to build a 5 axis machine instead is all the more remarkable. The mistakes which you highlighted are quite frankly really minor when one considers how far you've gone thus far. My curiosity lies in the material used to construct it ( what's painted in white???) If said machine is by your reckoning in the vicinity of 400 kg; it's pretty much the scale of an industrial tool rather than a hobby machine. I think you've excelled yourself & ought to be very proud of your achievement. It's exceedingly complex & very well built. It would be most interesting to see one of your project coming to fruition of this marvel. Very well done. Kind regards.
Thank you. The frame is made out of a mineral casting with a thin Aluminum sheet metal housing. I have a post on my Instagram where I show this in more detail. Maybe I include it in the next video.
400 volts, 60 amps, three phase power.... I don't know if it's common in Germany to have access to that, but here in the US my home would have to be in an industrial park to get more than 240VAC split-phase lol. But putting my disappointment in American power infrastructure aside, this is a very cool and inspiring project! Nicely done.
Impressive build! :) . I went to the videos section and noticed it's been a while. I hope you're still able to work on this and look forward to more :) .
A crazy awesome build right here. Obviously the best DIY CNC I have seen on YT. And I've seen a lot. I'm facing the same issue, I want that rigid 5 axis, but I live in a flat. I can assume that your main constraint here was to be able to pass that door (after disassembly that trunion on the side and Z axis). Nice job
Thank you, yes passing through the door and being able to get it in the first floor were the main constraints. So no piece should be heavier than 100kg.
@@fabianbrock On my list of "living in a flat constraint" I've also the noise... I'm considering buiding something light with dual glass frame arround the mill. I'm sure it will damp the high frequency noise but the lower frequency noise will be transmitted by the floor ... Do you think it could be a good idea to put the all frame on some air pad or is it a dumb idea that I need to forget. All the huge machine I know are strongly bolted on the ground but if i'm gentle on the motion dynamics it could do the trick until I have enough money to buy a house.
@@UPR91 That's definitely an option. Typically the machines are set on some rubber mats to decouple them. You need to be careful with acceleration depending on your moving/stationary mass ratio. To improve this you can also add some bricks to the frame if possible just to increase the mass.

You can't really compensate Spindle tram with the 4th and 5th axes. The Spindle needs to be aligned to the Z axes so the rotary once don't help here. However, they make the table alignment with the Y axis a lot easier. For now I have this standard aluminum casting import spindle mount and tramming needs to done with an indicator and a soft hammer.

For being so modest on your capabilities, I suspect you popped out of the womb with a pair of calipers in hand. I also suffered the same fate, though my calipers were in the form of a slide ruler and the metric markings were a bit fuzzy. 😉
Best design I’ve ever seen diy. Do you use harmonic gear on 5th axis (C axis) ? Back lash ? What do you recommend gear that has no backlash or most little ?
Is there a part listing, for like linear rails and ballscrews used? I have collected a few used tombstones and considering building a somewhat small 3axis machine out of it, 300x300x300mm, chinese 2.2kW 24k spindle. Currently a bit unsure, what rails and what ballscrews to use.
I have used 20mm linear rails and 20mm ballscrews with 5mm pitch. For your machine I would propose also 20mm linear rails but 16mm ballscrews. Brand you can pick based on your budget. the 2.2kW chinese spindle is excellent for its price. I have one on my CNC router.

I have used 20mm linear rails and 20mm ballscrews with 5mm pitch. For your machine I would propose also 20mm linear rails but 16mm ballscrews. Brand you can pick based on your budget. the 2.2kW chinese spindle is excellent for its price. I have one on my CNC router.
