How many horizontal machining centers do I need to select to meet my production requirements—— Estimation of production capacity

During model selection, the production capacity of the horizontal machining center must be considered, that is, the selected horizontal machining center is required to process several typical parts and the number of parts within one year. To obtain these data, it is necessary to estimate the machining hours and production beats of each typical part. The general steps are as follows: first, carry out process analysis according to the selected typical parts, preliminarily determine a process route, and select the process to be processed on the horizontal machining center in this process route; Secondly, according to the current process parameters, the single process time of each process processed on the horizontal machining center is estimated; Thirdly, the total processing time of the selected parts on the horizontal machining center is calculated from the time of every single process, and then the annual output is calculated, that is, the production capacity. If the estimated result can not reach the target value, but the difference is small, it can be adjusted by modifying the process parameters; If the difference is very large, the configuration of increasing the number of horizontal machining centers should be considered.

The horizontal machining center has many optional accessories. How should I choose them—— Selection of other functional components and accessories

• Number of coordinate axes and linkage axes

The number of coordinate axes and linkage axes shall meet the processing requirements of typical parts. Generally, for horizontal machining centers with the same manufacturer, specification and accuracy, add a standard coordinate axis, and the price will increase by about 30% - 50%. Although increasing the number of coordinate axes can strengthen the function of the machining center and is one of the symbols of the grade of the machine tool, the final decision should be balanced under the process requirements and capital conditions.

• Workbench

The horizontal machining center can be configured with a rotary table and a CNC rotary table for indexing. The latter can achieve arbitrary indexing and be used as a b-axis linkage control with other axes. Whether or not the rotary table is configured and how to configure it must be determined according to the actual needs for economy and practicality.

• Automatic tool change device (ATC)

ATC selection mainly considers tool change time and reliability. Overemphasizing the tool change time will greatly increase the price of the machining center and the failure rate. According to statistics, about 50% of the faults of the machining center are related to ATC. Therefore, on the premise of meeting the use requirements, ATC with high reliability shall be selected as far as possible to reduce the failure rate and the cost of the whole machine.

• Necessary accessories and accessories

During model selection, attention should also be paid to the selection of some supporting parts and accessories to avoid affecting the normal operation of the horizontal machining center due to the lack of an accessory that can be purchased for tens of thousands of yuan. Careful selection of tool handle and tool is also the key to ensuring the normal operation of the horizontal machining center. The best selection method should be determined according to the variety and quantity required by typical parts and added in succession during use. In the composition of horizontal machining center, chip removal device, protective device, and tool setting device (such as tool presetting instrument) are all necessary. Although they are not necessary accessories, if the price is not high, it will bring a lot of conveniences to use, they should also be selected as much as possible, such as accessory milling head, tool storage rack, and tool carrier, loader, etc.
