Not meant to wear, is it? Helmets are supposed to die during an impact, not just get hit into your head.

I helped commission a 5 axis machine many years ago - the sales video was of it machining a full size basket ball - dimples, name and all - this one is way cooler. Thanks for posting.

Okay so it isn't an actual helmet, but rather the technology? I feel slow.

Impresses with improvements and innovations in all areas ranging from 2D to 5-axis processing, including improved deep-hole drilling with feed motion reduction for cross-hole drilling, 3D roughing with minimal metal removal and as an all-in-one finishing process, an optimized rapid motion concept, the intelligent job link as well as new functions for simultaneous 5-axis milling
omg that is so cool or something

X,Y,Z...What are the other two axes?

That's when it gets complicated - XYZ are normal axes. The others are tilting or rotational - I have seen W used as the rotational axis. But I think W is broke down to 2 tilting axis B and C - but I have heard of Q and others. I have done a bit of programming in this but the controller handles the way the axis are handled. - Sorry, I may have opened can.

Whoa. Amazing. And to think I'd be tickled speechless to have an old Bridgeport parked on my shop floor.
