High-rigidity CNC vertical lathes are high-precision, high-efficiency machine tools featuring strong rigidity support, suitable for machining various complex and high-precision workpieces. Their spindles use high-precision bearings, offering high speed and stability. The bed is designed for smooth chip removal and low failure rates. These machines can perform automated machining and multiple processes in one setup, greatly improving efficiency and yield.
Correct operation of high-rigidity CNC vertical lathe is essential. Below are the proper usage steps:
Step 1: Equipment Preparation
1.Ensure the work area is clean and free of obstacles.
2.Inspect all components to confirm they are in good working condition, paying special attention to the spindle, turret, and turning tools.
Step 2: Program Writing
1.Write the machining program based on the workpiece requirements and process. Programs typically consist of G-codes (for tool paths and speeds) and M-codes (for machine functions).
2.Carefully consider tool selection, feed rates, and turning depths to ensure safety and quality.
Step 3: Equipment Setup
1.Mount the workpiece securely on the table using clamps or fixtures.
2.Adjust parameters such as tool position, machining speed, and feed rate according to the program.
3.Verify all components are correctly installed and adjusted to ensure machining accuracy and stability.
Step 4: Start the Machine
1.Power on the CNC machine and follow the user manual to operate and start.
2.Monitor normal operation during startup, including spindle rotation and feed system. Stop and inspect if abnormalities occur.
Step 5: Monitor Machining Process
1.Closely observe machine status and machining quality to ensure efficiency and precision.
2.Regularly check tool wear and replace or repair as needed.
3.Stop the machine immediately if any issues arise and troubleshoot.
Step 6: Finish and Maintenance
1.After machining, power off the machine and perform cleaning and maintenance.
2.Clean the machining area, remove chips and debris safely.
3.Perform regular maintenance to keep the machine in good condition.
Following these steps will help ensure your high-rigidity CNC vertical lathe runs efficiently and accurately in industrial production. Always refer to the equipment manual and safety guidelines for safe and quality operation.
