Characteristics of CNC Milling Machines

In addition to the characteristics of ordinary milling machines, CNC milling of this type of gantry machining center has the following features:
1. Strong adaptability and flexibility for part processing; the gantry machining center can process very complex profile shapes, such as mold parts and housing parts;
2. It can process parts that ordinary machine tools cannot process, such as complex curve parts described by mathematical models and three-dimensional curved surface parts;
3. It can process parts that require multiple procedures after a single clamping and positioning;
4. High processing accuracy with stable and reliable quality; currently, the pulse equivalent of CNC devices is usually 0.001mm, and high-precision CNC systems can achieve 0.1pm. In addition, CNC processing can also prevent operational errors by the operators;
5. High degree of production automation, which can reduce the labor intensity of operators and assist in the automation of production management;
6. Higher production efficiency; CNC milling machines usually do not require special fixtures or dedicated process equipment. When changing workpieces, it is sufficient to call up the processing program, clamping tools, and adjust tool data stored in the CNC device, which shortens the production cycle.
7. CNC iron beds of this type of gantry machining center have the functions of milling machines, boring machines, and drilling machines, allowing for a high concentration of processes and improving production efficiency.
8. The spindle speed and feed speed of CNC iron beds are both stepless variable speed, which helps in selecting cutting amounts;
9. From the perspective of cutting principles, whether end milling or face milling, they are both intermittent cutting methods, thus requiring high demands on tools, with strong impact resistance, toughness, and wear resistance.
