The difference between a CNC machining center, a CNC lathe and a CNC milling machine

The common feature between CNC machining centers and CNC lathes is installing CNC systems on ordinary machine tools. A lathe equipped with a CNC system is called a CNC lathe, a milling machine fitted with a CNC system is a CNC milling machine, and adding a tool magazine to the CNC milling machine is called a machining center. In terms of the number of axes, CNC lathes control two axes, while machining centers have at least three axes (which can also be four or five axes); From the perspective of processing range, CNC lathes are mainly to process rotating parts, while machining centers can process curved surfaces, grooves, and so on; From the perspective of the tool magazine, CNC lathes do not come with a tool magazine, while CNC machining centers come with an automatic tool-changing system. The difference between CNC machining centers and CNC lathes is that machining centers can exchange machining tools automatically. Install different cutting tools on the tool magazine and use an automatic tool-changing device to replace the machining tools on the spindle in one clamping, achieving multiple machining functions. The workpiece of the machining center completes all processes in one clamping, while the CNC lathe only completes the processing of one process. The basic programming code is the same, but some special instructions may not work between different systems. The machining center has powerful functions and integrates functions such as milling, grinding, hole turning, and tapping, making it a comprehensive CNC machine tool. It can be said that almost any hardware product, mold, or product can be made using a machining center. The power of machining centers is far more than that. They are stable, safe, highly efficient, require less manpower output, produce smooth and textured products, and have good dimensional accuracy. The machining centers are also durable, and can generally be used for at least 10 years. Henan Huaen Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. specializes in manufacturing vertical, horizontal, and gantry machining centers. The workpiece can be clamped in one go to achieve multi-faceted processing, including complex processes such as turning, milling, boring, drilling, tapping, and reaming, effectively controlling the form and position tolerances, and ensuring consistent machining quality.

The difference between a vertical machining center and a horizontal machining center

A vertical machining center refers to a machining center where the spindle is in a vertical state. Its structural form is mostly a fixed column, and the worktable is rectangular without indexing and rotation functions. It is suitable for machining disc, sleeve, and plate parts. A vertical machining center generally has three linear motion coordinate axes and can install a rotating table along the horizontal axis on the worktable, commonly known as a four-axis machining center in the industry. It is mostly used for machining spiral line parts. Vertical machining centers are easy to install, operate, observe machining conditions, debug programs, and have a wide range of applications. However, due to the height of the column and the limitations of the tool-changing device, it can't process parts that are too high. When machining cavities or concave surfaces, chips are not easily discharged, and in severe cases, they can damage the tool, destroy the already machined surface, and affect the smooth progress of machining. A horizontal machining center is a machining center with a horizontal spindle, usually equipped with an automatic indexing rotary worktable. It generally has 3-5 motion coordinates, commonly consisting of three linear and one rotary motion coordinate. After one clamping, the workpiece completes the machining of the other four surfaces except for the mounting and top. It is most suitable for machining box-type parts. Compared with vertical machining centers, horizontal machining centers have convenient chip removal and are beneficial for machining, but they have complex structures and higher prices.

What's the meaning of assembling a gearbox in a gantry machining center?

The machining center industry is developing rapidly. With the requirements of production technology and processes, the precision requirements of this industry are becoming increasingly strict from simple to complex in control systems, and from heavy to light in operation. The requirements for selecting transmission components are also increasing. In this article, I'm introducing the application of gearbox in gantry machining centers.
