FAQ
BX5-650 Questions
Answers to common questions about the BX5-650.
Its 650 mm table and 18 kW spindle sit at the size and power most real 5-axis production work actually calls for — big enough for aerospace structural parts and impellers, without the footprint or cost of the BX5-1000.
Yes — with the trunnion clamp force upgrade and appropriate feeds and speeds, the BX5-650 holds its rated ±0.005 mm positioning accuracy through titanium and nickel-superalloy cuts; our applications engineers set up your specific material during commissioning.
Rigging to your floor, leveling, a documented run-off on your part, on-site training, and post-processor development for your CAM system.
Yes, common spindle, trunnion and electrical components are stocked at our Vaughan parts warehouse, with next-day availability on less common items from our suppliers.

5-axis trunnion machining centre
BX5-400
The BX5-400 is Brenvoss's entry into simultaneous 5-axis machining, built around a 400 mm trunnion table for parts that need multiple compound angles finished in a single setup. An HSK-A63 spindle spinning to 18,000 rpm and a continuous C-axis with -30° to +120° of A-axis tilt let it reach faces a 3-axis machine would need three separate fixtures for. Tollaston sets this machine up most often for shops moving into aerospace bracket or medical implant work for the first time, where the accuracy and the setup reduction matter more than raw table size. Our applications engineers develop your post-processor and first simultaneous 5-axis program in the Vaughan Tech Centre so you aren't learning the toolpath strategy and the machine at the same time.
5-axis trunnion machining centre
BX5-1000
The BX5-1000 scales the Brenvoss trunnion platform up to a 1,000 mm table and 800 kg load rating for customers whose parts have simply outgrown the BX5-650. An HSK-A100 spindle delivering 200 Nm of torque at 10,000 rpm handles heavier structural aerospace components and large mold tooling that need 5-axis access but also need real metal-removal rate. The A-axis tilts -30° to +110° with continuous C-axis rotation, giving the same reach into compound angles as the smaller models on a much larger part envelope. Tollaston installs the BX5-1000 for shops doing large airframe structural work, big impeller housings, and heavy mold bases that need every face finished without a re-fixture.

Luc BergeronWhen Does 5-Axis Machining Pay Off?
The extra two axes cost real money. Here's how to tell whether your parts actually need simultaneous 5-axis capability, or whether the real payback is in 3+2 setup reduction.
