How many kinds of CNC machine tools are there?

There are many kinds of CNC machine tools.

There are many kinds of CNC machine tools, which can be classified according to different methods, such as process use, motion control and servo control. Ordinary CNC machine tools generally refer to automatic machine tools that realize digital control in a machining process, such as CNC milling machines, CNC lathes, CNC drilling machines, CNC grinding machines, CNC gear machining machines, etc.

The numerical control system only controls the precise position of the tool from one point to another, but does not control the motion trajectory. The motion between coordinate axes is irrelevant, and the workpiece is not processed during the movement. This kind of CNC machine tools mainly include CNC drilling machine, CNC coordinate boring machine and CNC punching machine. In addition to controlling the precise position between points, the numerical control system should also ensure that the trajectory between two points is a straight line. This kind of CNC machine tools mainly include simple CNC lathes, CNC milling machines and CNC grinders.

Main characteristics of CNC machine tools

The operation and monitoring of CNC machine tools are completed in this CNC unit, which is the brain of CNC machine tools. It has strong adaptability to processing objects, adapts to the characteristics of single-piece production of molds and other products, and provides suitable processing methods for mold manufacturing. Multi-coordinate linkage can be carried out to process parts with complex shapes. When the machined parts change, it is generally only necessary to change the numerical control program, which can save the production preparation time.

The machine tool itself has high precision and rigidity, and can choose favorable processing dosage and high productivity. Numerical control machine tools use digital information and standard codes to process and transmit information, and adopt computer control mode, which lays the foundation for the integration of computer-aided design, manufacturing and management. The quality of operators is required to be higher, and the technical requirements of maintenance personnel are higher.
