Heavy cutting vertical lathe is a widely used machine tool in the metal processing industry, which has high cutting efficiency and precision, and is suitable for various sizes of workpieces. This article will briefly introduce the working principle of a heavy cutting vertical lathe. Next, let's take a look together!
The working principle of a heavy cutting vertical lathe is as follows:
1. Working method:
The heavy cutting vertical lathe uses a vertical tool to rotate relative to the workpiece for processing. The tool is driven by an electric motor, rotates through the spindle and turret, and can perform feed motion. The workpiece is clamped on a rotating workbench, and cutting is achieved through the relative motion between the workbench and the tool.
2. Tool selection and cutting force:
The tools used in heavy cutting vertical lathes are generally composite tools, consisting of multiple cutting edges. These cutting edges can be individually or jointly cut to improve cutting efficiency. In machining, the cutting force exerted by the tool on the workpiece is relatively large and requires sufficient rigidity and stability.
3. Handle and control system:
The handle and control system of a heavy cutting vertical lathe usually use a CNC system, which controls the tool's motion trajectory, cutting speed, feed speed, and cutting depth by inputting pre-set machining parameters. CNC systems can achieve automation and precise control, improving machining accuracy and efficiency.
4. Spindle and turret:
The spindle of a heavy cutting vertical lathe is the rotating axis of the cutting tool and turret, which is driven by an electric motor to provide power and rotational motion. The turret is the supporting structure of the cutting tool, which can perform rotation and feed motion to achieve multi axis equipment processing.
5. Cutting process:
During the cutting process, the relative motion between the tool and the workpiece generates cutting force, forming a cutting shear zone on the workpiece. The cutting edge of the tool continuously cuts the workpiece, removing cutting chips and forming a machining surface.
