Turning and milling composite machining is an advanced manufacturing technology that combines two processing methods: turning and milling. By completing multiple processing processes on the same machine tool, high-precision and high-efficiency processing of complex parts can be achieved. It breaks the mode of turning and milling separation in traditional machining, significantly shortens the processing cycle of parts, and improves machining accuracy and surface quality. The core features of turning and milling composite machine tools. The multi-axis linkage machining capability is usually equipped with spindle rotation (turning function) and milling spindle (milling function), and supports 3-axis, 4-axis or even 5-axis linkage, which can process parts with complex curved surfaces, grooves, hole systems and other characteristics. Example: Processing complex structural parts such as impellers and engine receivers in the aerospace field. The process is integrated with one clamping to complete various processes such as turning, milling, drilling, tapping, boring, etc., reducing the positioning errors caused by multiple clamping of workpieces and improving processing consistency. Advantages: Especially suitable for precision parts with high precision requirements Read More

During the processing process, the computer issues instructions to the machine tool through the CNC system, and controls the movement of each part of the machine tool according to a predetermined path. The spindle drives the workpiece to rotate, and the tool feeds along the three directions of X, Y, and Z to achieve cutting and machining of the workpiece. The CNC system ensures the efficiency and accuracy of the processing process by accurately controlling various parameters, such as feed speed, spindle speed, cutting depth, etc. Processing advantages: Compared with horizontal lathes, the axis of the CNC vertical car spindle is vertically arranged, and the workbench surface is in a horizontal plane, so the clamping and alignment of workpieces are more convenient. Strong load-bearing capacity: It can withstand heavier workpieces and is suitable for processing large and heavy parts. When the slewing diameter is met, too heavy workpieces are not easy to clamp in the sleeper car. Using CNC vertical car can solve the above problems. Good accuracy retention: This layout reduces the load on the spindle and bearings, so CNC mounts can maintain working accuracy for a longer period of time. add Read More

It consists of cross beams, columns, workbenches, etc., with a stable structure and can withstand large cutting forces and heavy load processing, suitable for rough processing and finishing of large workpieces. Most columns are symmetrical double column design (or single column + auxiliary support) to ensure the overall rigidity and stability of the machine tool. Large stroke and workbench The workbench has a large size and strong load-bearing capacity (can reach dozens of tons), which is suitable for processing workpieces with larger length, width and height sizes (such as large molds and box parts). The X, Y, and Z axes have a large stroke range (for example, the X axes can reach several meters to tens of meters), meeting the full-size machining needs of complex workpieces. The spindle system has a high spindle power (can reach tens of kilowatts) and a wide speed range (usually 10-6000r/min, and high-speed models can reach more than 10000r/min), which can achieve high-speed cutting or strong cutting. The spindle can be equipped with a variety of accessories (such as milling heads, boring heads, drills, etc.), and expands machining functions (milling, boring Read More

Movement structure: including linear axis (X, Y, Z) and rotation axis (A, B, C). The linear axis controls the linear movement of the tool or workbench. The rotating shaft usually has a combination of double turntables (A+C or B+C), turntables + swing head (such as B axis rotation + A axis rotary table), double swing head (A+B), etc. to meet the processing needs of different parts. Coordinate transformation and linkage control: Through the CNC system, the tool path is calculated in real time, synchronizes the linear motion of the tool with the angle change of the rotation axis to ensure that the cutting point is always perpendicular to the curved surface and avoid interference. Typical algorithms have inverse kinematics solutions, which can convert the position of the tool in the workpiece coordinate system into the actual displacement of each axes. Tool Center Point Control (TCP): The origin of the coordinate system is usually set at the intersection of the rotation axis to reduce the computational complexity, otherwise dynamic offset compensation is required.

High machining accuracy: The horizontal machining center uses high-precision ball screws, linear guides and other transmission components, as well as advanced CNC systems and measurement feedback devices, which can achieve high-precision machining. At the same time, since the workpiece can be processed on multiple surfaces after clamping at one time, the clamping error is reduced and the processing accuracy is improved. High production efficiency: The horizontal machining center has automatic tool change function and multi-process continuous processing capability, which reduces the clamping, measurement and machine tool adjustment time, so that the cutting time of the machine tool reaches about 80% of the machine tool starting time, greatly improving production efficiency. Wide machining scope: By equipped with different tools and accessories, the horizontal machining center can realize a variety of processing processes such as milling, boring, drilling, and tapping, which is suitable for processing various parts of complex shapes, especially box parts, complex structural parts, etc. High degree of automation: Horizontal machining center can be used in cooperation with automatic loading and unloading devices, pallet exchange systems, etc. Read More

Spindle system: The spindle is the core component of the horizontal machining center, used to install the tool and drive the tool to rotate at high speed for cutting and processing. The spindle is usually driven by a spindle motor, and the power is transmitted to the spindle through couplings or transmission belts, etc., which can achieve continuous speed change to meet different machining needs. Workbench: used to clamp and fix workpieces. Common workbenches include indexing workbenches and CNC rotary workbenches. The indexing workbench can only be divided at a certain angle, such as 90°, 180°, etc.; the CNC rotary workbench can realize rotation at any angle, so that the workpiece can be processed on multiple surfaces after one clamping. Tool magazine: used to store and exchange tools. Common tool magazines include disc tool magazines, chain tool magazines, etc. The capacity of the tool magazine generally depends on the specifications of the machining center and user needs, ranging from a few tools to hundreds of tools. Column: The column is a component that supports the spindle system and slide, usually in a box-shaped structure. Read More
