The cutting tools and cutting conditions for CNC machining

For effective metal cutting, machining materials, cutting tools and cutting conditions are the three main factors. These determine the processing time, tool life and machining quality. Cutting conditions must be selected reasonably for economical and efficient processing methods.

The three elements of cutting conditions: cutting speed, feed and cutting depth directly cause damage. With the increase of cutting speed, the point temperature will rise, resulting in mechanical, chemical and thermal wear. If the cutting speed is increased by 20%, the tool life will be reduced by 1 / 2.

Back feed conditions and tool wear are kept to a minimum. But feeding behind, cutting temperature rise, wear. It is less than the effect of cutting speed. Cutting depth has no effect on cutting speed and feed, small cutting depth, but cutting material in hardened layer will also affect tool life.

According to the user’s processing material, hardness, cutting conditions, material selection, feed and cutting depth, the cutting speed is used.

Based on the selection of the most suitable process conditions, these factors are selected. Regular life and stable wear are the most ideal conditions.

However, in practice, the selection of tool life and tool wear, through machining size, surface quality, noise reduction, heat and so on. Under certain processing conditions, it is necessary to study according to the actual situation. Difficult to machine materials such as stainless steel, heat-resistant alloy, can use coolant or choose a good rigid blade.

Reasonable selection of cutting tools

1。 Rough rotation, should choose high strength, good durability knife, in order to meet the large car turning, feedback.

2。 The essence of automobile is to select high precision, durable and good cutting tools to ensure the machining accuracy.

3。 Reduce the conversion time and knife convenience, should try to use machine knife and machine clip blade.

Select fixture

1。 General fixture should be selected to clamp workpiece as much as possible, and special fixture should be avoided;

2。 The coincidence of parts positioning datum reduces the positioning error.

Determine the processing route

Machining path is the part of tool path and direction relative to each other in the process of exponential control.

1。 It should be able to meet the requirements of machining accuracy and surface roughness;

2。 Shorten the processing route as far as possible and reduce the idle travel time of the tool.
