CNC milling machine is the name given to the machines that make the chip removal process from the workpieces by generally making linear progress with the pocket knife with more than one cutting edge. This type of bench is used for purposes such as processing flat and angled surfaces, grooving, making straight and circular partitions. Therefore, it is widely used in the manufacturing sector in various fields from automotive to aviation, from defense to machinery manufacturing.
The aim of CNC technology is to make serial and error-free production by means of machines without the need for manpower. For example, parts that are machined in an hour on a lathe and can be produced in a few pieces count hundreds of productions in minutes thanks to CNC technology. For this reason, CNC machines are frequently used in the manufacturing sector today.
CNC FRESE BENCH SECTIONS
CNC Milling Machine is divided into 3 as main parts, heads and accessories.
- Main parts: Body, console, trolley, table
- Titles : Milling machine heads
- Accessories: Mandrels, divisor and counter center, turntable, vices, fastening shoes
DETAILS OF CNC MILLING PROCESS
CNC Milling machines are highly advanced machines with data processing and evaluation capabilities. For CNC milling, the part is connected to the machine and the reference points of the part are defined to the machine by a precision receiving tip called a probe. In this way, the machine understands the raw size of the workpiece and its position in the machine. In CNC milling machines, the necessary cutting tools are placed in a mechanism called a magazine.
Then, the pre-prepared program to process the part is entered into the workbench by methods such as control panel, memory card. It processes the part by interpreting the program entered on the machine and applying the tasks in the program completely. Here are the details of the CNC milling process and the working principle of the CNC milling machine.
