Tools commonly used in the milling process of CNC machining centers

We know that the difference between CNC machining centers is that a major feature of CNC milling machines is the presence or absence of tool magazines. The machining center generally has 16 or 24 tools in the manipulator tool magazine, which can complete automatic tool change during the machining process. Different processing procedures require different types of tools, but they are all used to cut metal materials, so the tools of the machining center are generally metal cutting tools.

The machining center can complete the processing of various discs, plates, threads, shells, cams, molds and other complex parts through one clamping. One-time clamping can complete drilling, milling, boring, expansion, reaming, rigid tapping and other processes. When drilling and milling, you can choose turning tools, planers, and milling cutters; use boring cutters, reamers or standard drills for hole processing; choose taps and thread milling cutters for thread processing; gear processing tools include hobs, gear shapers , Gear shaving cutters, etc.; no matter which kind of tool is composed of a clamping part and a working part, the clamping part and working part of the overall structure tool are made on the cutter body.

The working part of the tool is to generate and process chips. The working part of some tools is the cutting part, such as turning tools, planers, boring cutters and milling cutters, etc.; the cnc machining part of some tools includes cutting parts and calibration parts, such as drills, reamers, reamers, and inner surface drawing. Knife and tap etc. The function of the cutting part is to remove chips with the cutting edge, and the function of the calibration part is to polish the cut surface and guide the tool.

The daily maintenance of knives is not difficult, and it needs to be rust-proof and blunt-proof. In order to prevent passivation, the processing masters in the workshop regularly grind to repair the tool wear. The anti-rust work is a little more complicated. For the part of the CNC tool holder, you should use high-quality anti-rust oil; before doing anti-rust, pay attention to wipe the tool clean; keep it dry and clean the parts after processing; carbide blades do not need special Anti-rust treatment, pay attention to the timely storage of knives and be careful not to mix two or several blades together; special attention to the protection of the cutting edge of the drill or milling cutter, do not touch or fall on the ground.

In fact, it is very necessary to take regular time to inspect and clean the tool holder and spindle. Correct maintenance can increase the service life of the equipment and reduce the potential cost of production. Thereby creating a safe working environment and reducing the probability of accidents.
