Machining is the abbreviation of mechanical processing, which refers to the processing technology of accurately removing materials through processing machinery.
Mechanical processing mainly includes manual processing and numerical control processing.
Manual processing refers to the method of processing various materials by mechanical workers manually operating milling machines, lathes, drilling machines, sawing machines and other mechanical equipment. Manual processing is suitable for small batch and simple parts production.
Numerical control machining (CNC) refers to the use of CNC equipment by machinists for machining, including machining centers, turning and milling centers, wire EDM equipment, thread cutting machines, etc.
At present, the vast majority of machining workshops use CNC machining technology. Through programming, the position coordinates (X, Y, Z) of the workpiece in the Cartesian coordinate system are converted into program language. The CNC controller of the numerical control machine tool controls the axis of the numerical control machine tool by identifying and interpreting the program language, and automatically removes materials as required to obtain the finished workpiece. NC machining processes workpieces in a continuous manner, which is suitable for large quantities of parts with complex shapes.
The machining workshop can use CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing) system to automatically program the NC machine tool. The geometric shape of the part is automatically converted from the CAD system to the CAM system, and the mechanic selects it on the virtual display screen
Select various processing methods. When the machinist selects a certain processing method, the CAD/CAM system can automatically output CNC code, usually G code, and input the code into the controller of the NC machine tool for actual processing operation.
If the parts of the equipment needed for production, such as metal cutting machine tools (including turning, milling, planing, inserting and other equipment) at the rear of the factory are damaged, they need to be repaired, so they need to be sent to the machining workshop for repair or processing. In order to ensure the smooth production, general enterprises have set up machining workshops, which are mainly responsible for the maintenance of production equipment.

The machining process specification is one of the process documents that specify the machining process and operation methods of parts. It is a process document that, under specific production conditions, writes a more reasonable process and operation method into a process document in the specified form, and is used to guide production after approval. The machining process procedure generally includes the following contents: the process route of workpiece processing, the specific contents of each process and the equipment and process equipment used, the inspection items and methods of workpiece, cutting amount, time quota, etc.
Step 1 of formulating the process procedure: calculate the annual production program and determine the production type. 2) Analyze part drawings and product assembly drawings, and analyze the process of parts. 3) Select the blank. 4) Draw up the process route. 5) Determine the machining allowance of each process, and calculate the process dimensions and tolerances. 6) Determine the equipment, tools, fixtures, measuring tools and auxiliary tools used in each process. 7) Determine cutting parameters and man hour quota. 8) Determine the technical requirements and inspection methods of main processes. 9) Fill in process documents.
In the process of formulating process procedures, it is often necessary to adjust the previously preliminarily determined contents to improve economic benefits. In the process of implementing the process specification, there may be unexpected situations, such as changes in production conditions, introduction of new technologies and processes, application of new materials and advanced equipment, etc., which require timely revision and improvement of the process specification, including five axis processing, ceramic processing, chemical processing, CNC processing, CNC milling, CNC turning, casting machining, micro machining, plastic parts machining, thread cutting, EDM forming, Swiss turning, WEDM, etc.
Machining equipment includes: lathes, milling and boring machines, drilling machines, machining centers, heavy machine tools, high-speed milling machines, other machine tools, and functional parts.
Machined products include: shafts, valves, shells, gears, turbines, fasteners, pipe fittings, rods, metal bushes, turning parts, etc.
Surface finish/roughness
In the sense of engineering, the finish is the roughness.
It is not recommended to use finish or finish
In the equipment technical annexes abroad,
Flatness refers to flatness, flatness and straightness.
Roughness refers to roughness and finish.
The flatness of the same material is greater than the roughness.
If the flatness of an aluminum plate is 0.4mm, the roughness can reach 0.4 μ m。
Flatness refers to the variation of the measured actual surface and its ideal plane. Generally speaking, it is “macroscopic surface flatness and straightness”.
Roughness refers to the arithmetic mean deviation of the profile, usually expressed in Ra. It is the arithmetic mean value of the concave convex small pits on the micro level, which is usually used for more precise measurement.
CNC lathe and machining center
After the machine tool is equipped with a numerical control system, the machine tool becomes a numerical control machine tool. Of course, the development of ordinary machine tools to numerical control machine tools is not just as simple as adding systems. For example, from milling machines to machining centers, the structure of machine tools has changed. The most important thing is to add
The tool magazine has greatly improved the accuracy. The main functions of the machining center are milling, boring and drilling.
Generally speaking, CNC equipment mainly refers to CNC lathes and machining centers.
A machining center is a CNC machine tool equipped with a tool magazine, which has the function of automatic tool change, and can perform multi process machining after the workpiece is clamped once. The machining center is a highly electromechanical product. After the workpiece is clamped, the CNC system can control the machine tool according to different work conditions
Automatic selection and replacement of tools, automatic tool setting, automatic change of spindle speed, feed rate, etc. can continuously complete drilling, boring, milling, reaming, tapping and other processes. As a result, the clamping time, measurement, machine tool adjustment and other auxiliary tools are greatly reduced
Sequence time has good economic effect for parts with complex machining shape, high precision requirements and frequent variety replacement.
Machining centers are generally classified according to the relative position of the spindle and the workbench, and are divided into horizontal, vertical and universal machining centers (multi axis linkage machining centers).
Differences in hardness, strength and stiffness
Hardness is an important performance index to measure the hardness of metal materials. It can be understood as the ability of materials to resist elastic deformation, plastic deformation or damage,
It can also be expressed as the ability of materials to resist residual deformation and anti destruction. Hardness is not a simple physical concept, but the elasticity, plasticity
Comprehensive index of mechanical properties such as strength and toughness. Hardness test can be divided into static pressure method (such as Brinell hardness, Rockwell hardness, Vickers hardness, etc.), scratch method (such as Mohs hardness), rebound method (such as Shore hardness) according to different test methods
And micro hardness, high temperature hardness and other methods.
Strength refers to the ability of parts to resist fracture or residual deformation beyond the allowable limit after bearing load.
In other words, strength is an important indicator to measure the bearing capacity (i.e., the resistance to failure) of parts. strength
It is the basic requirement that mechanical parts should first meet. The strength of mechanical parts can generally be divided into static strength and fatigue strength (bending fatigue and contact fatigue, etc.)
, breaking strength, impact strength, high temperature and low temperature strength, strength and creep under corrosive conditions, adhesive strength, etc. The strength test research is a comprehensive research, mainly through its stress state to study the stress state of parts and components
And predict the conditions and timing of failure.
Stiffness refers to the ability of parts to resist elastic deformation under load. Stiffness (or rigidity) of parts
It is usually expressed by the force or moment required for unit deformation. The stiffness depends on the geometric shape of the part and the type of material (i.e. the elastic modulus of the material)
。 Stiffness requirements are particularly important for some parts that will affect the working quality of the machine when the elastic deformation exceeds a certain value, such as the spindle, guide rail, lead screw, etc. of the machine tool.
Stiffness is the ability to resist deformation, strength is the ability to resist damage, and hardness is the ability to invade other objects (also the ability not to be invaded by other objects). Stiffness emphasizes no deformation or small deformation, such as the spindle of the machine tool. Strength is strong
Adjust the reliability, that is, it cannot fail. Hardness is the ability to emphasize invasion and anti invasion, such as cushion blocks for fixtures, jig sleeves, and tools.
Stiffness – the ability of a structure or component to resist elastic deformation. Stiffness, rigidity
Strength – the ability of metal materials to resist plastic deformation and fracture under external force, which is an important indicator to measure the bearing capacity of parts (i.e., the ability to resist failure).
Hardness – The ability of a material to resist hard objects pressing into its surface is called hardness, which is an indicator of the hardness of a material.
