In 2026, the global high-end manufacturing industry is undergoing an in-depth upgrade towards precision, intelligence and high efficiency. The processing requirements for complex components in aerospace, new energy vehicles, high-end equipment and other fields are rising continuously. As a core equipment of industrial mother machines, the five-axis machining center has become a key grasp for enterprises to break through processing bottlenecks and enhance core competitiveness. With decades of deep cultivation in five-axis machining technology, CATO Precision Machinery (Guangdong) Co., LTD, relying on profound technical accumulation and independent R&D strength, has created the CBS300  five axis gantry type machining center of the CBS series. With core advantages of high-rigidity structure, all-electric direct drive technology and independently developed core components, it accurately solves the processing pain points of complex parts in aerospace and other fields. It has become the preferred solution for high-end five-axis machining centers in 2026, providing efficient, precise and stable precision processing solutions for global high-end manufacturing enterprises.

By virtue of the linkage advantage of three linear axes (X/Y/Z) and two rotary axes (A/B/C) movements, the five-axis machining center realizes the processing of workpieces at any angle in three-dimensional space, completely breaking the processing limitation of multiple clamping of traditional three-axis machine tools and greatly improving processing precision and efficiency. It has become a core equipment in high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace, new energy vehicles and medical devices. In particular, aero-engine blades, impellers in the aerospace field and integrated die-cast components of new energy vehicles, due to their complex structures, thin-walled and deep cavities, and stringent precision requirements, put extremely high demands on the rigidity, positioning accuracy and dynamic stability of five-axis machining centers. In 2026, with the acceleration of the localization process of global high-end manufacturing, the market demand for five-axis simultaneous machining centers continues to grow, and technological upgrading has become a core trend of the industry. Five-axis machining centers with independent core technologies, high adaptability and intelligence will occupy the mainstream of the market.

The CATO CBS300 five axis gantry type machining center is specially built for the processing of high-end precision and complex parts. Upgraded in an all-round way from structural design to core components, it perfectly adapts to the processing needs of aerospace, high-end equipment and other fields, showing a new height of five-axis machining center technology.

In terms of structural design, the CBS300 adopts a gantry-type high-rigidity structural design, which serves as the core support for the high rigidity and stability of the equipment. The overall structure is stable and can bear large working loads. The processing efficiency of X/Y/Z axes is not affected by the size and weight of the workpiece during high acceleration/deceleration movement, completely solving the problem of precision loss caused by workpiece load in traditional machine tools. At the same time, the reinforced structural design ensures the equipment maintains high stability during high-speed finish machining and high rigidity during rough machining, meeting the needs of different processing procedures. It provides a reliable guarantee for the processing of thin-walled deep cavity and heavy-load workpieces, and is especially suitable for the processing of parts with stringent rigidity requirements such as aero-engine blades.

In terms of core drive technology, the CBS300 is equipped with all-electric direct drive technology to achieve excellent performance of five-axis simultaneous machining. The X/Y axes adopt high-performance Direct-Drive Linear Motor technology, combined with a high-precision linear scale feedback system, featuring no mechanical transmission, no backlash, high acceleration/deceleration and fast response speed. It can maintain a permanent high-precision processing standard, with low noise and low vibration during operation and convenient later maintenance. The A/C axis cradle adopts Direct-Drive Torque Motor technology, also achieving no backlash and no wear, with low noise during high acceleration/deceleration movement. Combined with a high-precision encoder, it realizes precise positioning and dynamic control of the processing process. Meanwhile, the equipment is equipped with High-rigidity Roller Linear Guideway and High-precision Linear Encoder & Angle Encoder, which double guarantee the high rigidity and precision of five-axis simultaneous machining, effectively avoiding dimensional deviations caused by vibration and deformation during processing and ensuring the precision consistency of complex curved surface and multi-angle processing.

In terms of core components, the CBS300 has realized the core localization of independent R&D, seizing the initiative in the core technology of the equipment. The spindle adopts the independently developed HSK-E40 built-in electric spindle. CATO has a complete capability of spindle design, manufacturing and assembly, and adopts a fine modular production mode in a constant temperature and humidity workshop, making the spindle have the characteristics of high rigidity, high speed, high power, high torque and high reliability. The spindle cools the motor and front and rear bearings through forced cooling, completely eliminating runout and vibration within the rotation range. Even during long-term high-speed continuous processing, it can achieve stable precision output, perfectly adapting to the high-speed processing demand of 3000 rpm for aero-engine blades.

Meanwhile, the equipment is equipped with a variety of high-end system controllers, standard with Siemens Sinumerik One, and optional with Heidenhain TNC640 and C80 Plus. It accurately matches the operating habits, programming needs and processing scenarios of different customers, easily adapting to both efficient programming of complex parts and intelligent and digital processing control, improving the operational flexibility and scenario adaptability of the equipment.

As a leader in five-axis machining technology, the CATO CBS300 has been maturely applied in the aerospace field and successfully completed the high-precision processing of aero-engine blades, verifying the excellent performance of the equipment with practical cases. In this processing case, the workpiece is made of 6010 aluminum alloy with a diameter of 220 mm and a length of 160 mm. The thin-walled and deep cavity structure of the part puts forward stringent challenges to the rigidity and precision of the processing equipment. Relying on the high-rigidity gantry structure and precise five-axis simultaneous control, the CBS300, combined with cemented carbide tools, achieves efficient processing with a feed rate of 2000 mm/min, a cutting width of 0.15 mm, a cutting depth of 0.05 mm and a rotational speed of 3000 rpm. It precisely cuts every detail of the part, perfectly solving the processing pain points of engine blades, and the processing precision and efficiency have reached the high-end level of the industry, becoming a reliable choice for the processing of core aerospace components.

In addition to aero-engine blades, the CBS300 five axis gantry type machining center can also be widely adapted to the processing of various complex precision parts in aerospace, new energy vehicles, high-end equipment and other fields. It can realize high-efficiency and high-precision processing of thin-walled deep cavity parts, irregular curved surface parts, as well as parts with heavy load and high precision requirements. In 2026, with the continuous development of the high-end manufacturing industry, CATO will continue to take technological innovation as the core, continuously upgrade the technical performance and scenario adaptability of five-axis machining centers.
