"By using the fourth and fifth axis of rotation, we can move the part closer to the cutting tool. If the part can be closer to the cutting tool, the cutting tool can be shorter. Shorter cutting tools are less susceptible to vibration at higher cutting speeds, which directly affects the surface finish. Shorter tools and less deflection mean less chattering and a better surface finish." Credit: IG User solidcammy | Practical Machinist
