HOW TO SET AND CHANGE THE TOOL IN CNC MACHINING CENTER?

Operating CNC machining center, or CNC router, always need to set cutting tool and change cutting tool to meet manufacturing requirement.
“How to set and change the cutting tool in machining center?” is the common question.

The cutting tool setting

The tool setting point of CNC machining center is the reference point used to determine the position of workpiece coordinate system in the machine coordinate system after the workpiece is aligned and clamped on the machine.

Tool setting point can be selected on workpiece or clamping positioning element. There must be an accurate, reasonable and simple position corresponding relationship between the tool setting point and the workpiece coordinate point, which is convenient to calculate the position of the workpiece coordinate point on the machine tool (the machine coordinate of the workpiece coordinate point). The tool setting point should preferably coincide with the workpiece coordinate point.

Tool change point

Tool change point: the machining center has a tool magazine and an automatic tool change device, which can change the tool automatically according to the needs of the program. The tool change point shall be in the position where there is no collision and interference between workpiece, fixture, tool and machine tool during tool change, and the tool change point of machining center is usually fixed.

Horizontal tool setting (x, y coordinates):

(1) tool setting of lever dial indicator: the tool setting point is the center of cylindrical hole;
(2) tool setting with edge finder: round hole or datum edge
(3) adjust the cutter by touching the cutter or trial cutting.

Tool setting in Z direction (Z coordinate):

(1) on machine tool setting: use Z-direction setter to set the tool.
(2) pre adjustment of external tools + on-board tool setting.
(3) tool setting by external tool setting instrument: measure the diameter, length, blade shape and angle of the tool.
(4) the problem of tool setting in multi position machining of horizontal machining center.

The advantages of Casting Iron parts used in Corrugated fins forming machine

The advantages of Casting Iron parts used in Corrugated fins forming machine (JTFY 400-1300 TRANSFORMER OIL TANK CORRUGATED FINS FORMING MACHINE KEY MECHANICAL STRUCTURE ALL USE STANDARD GB QT500 CASTING PARTS) Main casting iron structures: ---①②③④⑤ are key casting iron parts Material:Standard GB QT500 --① right&left gantry posts --② slider box --③ slider bottom platen --④ back platen post --⑤ post of cutting structure --other casting iron parts: oil cylinder flange, roller seat, movable mould bearing support,front&back loose-tight structure foot parts etc. transformer oil tank corrugated fins forming machine Casting Iron is naturally weathered. The casting iron part is much heavier than the welding part. The corrugated fin forming machine is one kind of heavy machinery. The smaller vibration of the machine , the greater of cutting precision. The sensitivity of casting iron to vibration is very low, so that its cutting accuracy is improved. Castin...
