Large-Scale CNC Machining

What is large CNC machining?

Large CNC machining refers to the process of using computer numerical control (CNC) machines to manufacture large size and weight parts and components. These machines are capable of handling workpieces of significant size and weight and are commonly used in industries that require large precision components.

This kind of processing solves the problems of variable parts variety, ‌ small batch, ‌ complex shape, ‌ high precision, ‌ to achieve high efficiency and automatic processing. ‌ large nc machining is mainly used in large, ‌ oversize parts processing, ‌ in the service of national defense, ‌, ‌ of aeronautics and astronautics, shipping, ‌, ‌, ‌, transportation, energy, metallurgy, ‌ engineering machinery and other major industrial pillar industries. The equipment ‌ includes large CNC vertical lathes and large CNC horizontal lathes. They can automatically complete the processing of outer cylinder, ‌ conical surface, ‌ spherical surface and thread, ‌ can also process some complex rotary surface and curved surface.

The importance of large numerical control machining

Large numerical control machining and technical specifications

•  The production tasks of each CNC employee must be obtained from the person in charge of the process, and it is strictly prohibited to undertake production tasks with other department personnel without permission.

•  After the CNC machine tool is restarted in the shutdown state, it is necessary to make the machine return to the zero coordinate system of the machine. If the machine is mounted with a workpiece, check in advance to check whether the return to zero path will interfere with the spindle and other obstacles, so as not to damage the machine and the workpiece.

Preparation before processing

•  Undertake production tasks: After receiving the production task, the operator calls 3D graphics from the specified file path, carefully reads the drawings, makes clear the meaning of the three-dimensional shape and related dimensions of the parts, defines the establishment of the processing coordinate system and the clamping direction of the workpiece, and precisely writes the processing program.

• Tool preparation: Prepare the tool quickly and accurately according to the tool specifications listed in the machining program. For finishing, especially contour finishing, must use the tool that meets the requirements, in addition, it is necessary to fully consider the processing parts may cause easy damage to the tool, and grasp the entire processing process.

• Select and check the incoming materials of the workpiece: First, select and check the incoming materials of the workpiece according to the size of the design spare materials in the drawing in order to determine whether to continue working.

• Workpiece clamping:
(1) According to the size of the workpiece and the process hole used, select the appropriate fixture;
(2) Carefully remove the burrs and debris of the workpiece, clean it up with rags and filing knives
(3) Select the appropriate tools to safely fix the workpiece on the fixture;
(4) Clean up the machine table and fixture, and fix the locked workpiece and fixture to the machine table carefully and correctly according to the processing coordinates required by the processing program.
(5) If you do not use a special fixture to fix the workpiece, you need to use the calibration table to correct the workpiece, and fix the calibration table correctly and stably to the machine tool according to the workpiece calibration front
