Brief Introduction of CNC Machining Center
A CNC machining center (MC) is a multifunctional machining equipment equipped with an automatic tool changer (ATC) that can perform a variety of cutting operations. This article introduces the definition, history, and importance of CNC machining centers in China’s manufacturing industry,…
How to Set Tools on a Machining Center?
Return to Zero (Machine Home Position):Before setting tools, you must perform the return-to-zero operation (return to the machine’s home position) to clear the coordinate data from the previous operation. Note that all three axes (X, Y, Z) need to be returned to zero. Spindl…
What should I do after the machining center finishes its work?
The machining process procedures of traditional machine tools in machining centers are generally the same. The main difference is that the machining center completes all cutting processes through one clamping and continuous automatic processing, so the machining center needs to perform some “…
How does the machining center reduce the surface roughness of the workpiece?
The rough surface of parts is one of the common problems of CNC machining centers, which directly reflects the machining quality.In order to control the surface roughness of parts, we must first deeply analyze the causes of surface roughness, mainly including:Tool marks caused during milling;Heat …
Why do machining center tools need to be passivated?
The faster the CNC tool is, but not the better it is. Why do we need to passivate it? In fact, tool passivation is not what everyone understands literally, but a way to increase the service life of the tool.Improve the quality of the tool through processes such as flattening, polishing, and deb…
How does a machining center produce and process easily deformed parts?
For parts with light weight, poor rigidity and weak strength, they are easily deformed by force and heat during processing, and the high scrap rate leads to a significant increase in costs.For such parts, we must first understand the reasons for deformation: Deformation due to stress:This type …
Difference between Boring Machines and Milling Machines
The working principle and nature of boring machines are similar to those of milling machines. The rotation of the tool is the main motion, and the movement of the workpiece is the feed motion. Boring machines are mostly used to process longer through holes, large diameter stepped holes, hole…
