Risk hubs • 5‑Axis
Orientation‑dependent errors are a 5‑axis reality. This hub shows how to qualify rotary axes, post states, and inspection sweeps before parts ship.
Use the lines below to make sure your RFQ/PO includes the evidence needed to eliminate this risk.
If you only do one thing: align the CTQs + decision rule + evidence pack format before first article. Most receiving disputes come from ambiguity, not capability.
Use these links to evaluate capability and corrective-action maturity before placing a PO.
Aerospace 5-axis case study: true position failed only at certain tilts. Root cause traced to rotary-axis geometry error and post/kinematic mismatch. Fix used ISO 230‑7 style verification and orientation sweeps.

How ISO 230‑7 rotary axis accuracy relates to 5-axis part errors, and how to qualify 5-axis trustworthiness using orientation sweeps, error mapping logic, and buyer-ready evidence packages.

If your receiving team uses specific forms, share them during RFQ—SEMIX can map fields 1:1. Otherwise, start with the templates below.
In global supply chains, “quality” is often judged at receiving. A clean evidence pack reduces back‑and‑forth, speeds approvals, and protects schedules.
These templates are print‑to‑PDF and designed to be adapted to your PO flow‑downs.
Beyond machine specs, we use verification logic (orientation checks, rotary-axis accuracy concepts) and buyer-ready evidence packs for first article and repeat runs.
Yes—FAI support is available by agreement, and we can align to AS9102-style expectations.
For high-risk geometries we can design an orientation sweep plan so the failure mode is detected before shipment.
Send an RFQ package (NDA first if needed) with your drawing/model, material/finish, quantity, CTQs, and evidence requirements.
