 Common cutting tools for CNC machining (II): Tool clamping

The accuracy of the milling cutter can be compared with the accuracy of the measuring tool, so we should pay attention to and understand its correct use, in order to accurately install the milling cutter on the machine for milling. The clamping methods of milling cutter can be roughly divided into the following types: side fixed type, collet type, hydraulic type, tooth fixed type and heat shrinkable type. Side fixed Weldon It has extremely high holding force, so it is often used in heavy cutting occasions. It is suitable for heavy cutting of traditional machining methods or traditional machines. However,…

You have to understand this first about non-standard mechanical design

Due to the large thermal expansion coefficient of aluminum alloy parts, it is easy to deform in the process of thin-wall machining. Especially when using free forging blank, the machining allowance is large, and the deformation problem is more prominent. 1. Causes of machining deformation There are many reasons for the machining deformation of aluminum alloy parts, which are related to the material, part shape, production conditions and the performance of cutting fluid. It mainly includes the following aspects: deformation caused by internal stress of blank, deformation caused by cutting force and cutting heat, and deformation caused by clamping force.…

Application of CimatronE software in five axis die processing and product processing

With the continuous innovation and breakthrough of numerical control technology, five axis machining is adopted by more and more industries, such as aerospace, electric power, shipbuilding, high-precision instruments, mold manufacturing and so on. However, the automatic programming software plays a key role in the five axis machining technology, because the process layout of the tool path, the interference inspection between the tool collet and the workpiece or the fixture, and the identification of the blank residue are all automatically considered by the software, and the programmers can not achieve it through calculation. They just optimize the cutting parameters according to…

Analysis of machine tool random error

Analysis of machine tool random error

The random error of machine tool is caused by external conditions and is greatly affected by external conditions. It can be divided into: positioning accuracy error, geometric accuracy error, thermal deformation error and so on. Let's take a brief look at these three errors. 1. Error caused by load deformation of the process system: when turning, the workpiece is often affected by cutting force, clamping force, inertia force, gravity, etc., resulting in corresponding deformation, which eventually destroys the correct relative position between the tool and the workpiece and reduces the machining accuracy of the workpiece. For example, when the stiffness…
