The difference between CNC machining center and general machine tool

When processing by general machine tools, the processing cost is relatively low, the process is long, and many specific details in the work steps are completed by skilled workers, and the requirements for skilled workers are relatively high. Compared with general machine tools, CNC machining centers have the following nine characteristics:

1.It is suitable for the processing of complex special-shaped parts, has strong adaptability to the processing objects, adapts to the characteristics of single-piece production of molds and other products, and provides a suitable processing method for the manufacture of molds. CNC machining centers can process complex parts that are difficult or impossible to process with general machine tools, so they are widely used in aerospace, shipbuilding, mold and other processing industries.

2.High processing precision, stable processing quality, computer control, elimination of human error, good processing consistency of parts, stable and reliable quality.

3.Multi-coordinate linkage can be carried out, and parts with complex shapes can be processed.

4.When the processing parts are changed, generally only the NC program needs to be changed, which can save production preparation time.

5.The cnc machining center l itself has high precision and high rigidity, can choose favorable processing dosage, and has high productivity (generally 3 to 5 times that of general machine tools). For the processing of some complex parts, the production efficiency can be increased by more than ten times or even dozens times.

6.The cnc machining center has a high degree of automation, which can reduce labor intensity.

7.It is conducive to the modernization of production management. The CNC machining center uses digital information and standard codes to process and transmit information, and uses computer control methods to lay the foundation for the integration of computer-aided design, manufacturing and management.

8.Higher quality requirements for operators and higher technical requirements for maintenance personnel.

9.Large investment and high use cost.
