5-Axis Machining of Hockey Goalie Mask on GROB G550!

The NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs are in full swing!

Check out this incredible 5-axis machining of a hockey goalie mask on a @Grobgroup G550 universal machining center.

This amazing part was made in two setups, each based on the 5th Axis RockLock Workholding System. The heaviest roughing toolpaths were made easy, thanks to Mastercam’s OptiRough Toolpath and Emuge Franken’s lineup of aluminum-specialized cutting tools. The intricate multiaxis finishing was handled by Mastercam’s Unified Multiaxis Toolpath, with VERICUT Software by CGTech machine simulation and the reliable code created through the Postability post processor ensuring smooth operation throughout.

Overall, this part required 747 Mastercam toolpaths, and 85 hours of machine time. We think the end result is worthy of the Stanley Cup!

Special Thanks:
