At present, there are many methods and equipment used in machining centers, among which VMC 4 axis machine is a more common processing method.

 

Initially, many manufacturers used three-axis machining. In fact, 4 axis VMC is better in terms of performance, functionality and adaptability. Today, let's take a look at the performance and processing advantages of 4 axis simultaneous machining.

 

The Performance of 4 Axis Simultaneous Machining

Although 4 axis VMC is now common in the industry, there is not much theoretical data in the process of development. Therefore, we often encounter various problems in practical application. For example, the problem of cutting tools will also affect the efficiency of the overall equipment.

 

VMC 4 axis machine is mainly divided into two types: horizontal and vertical. Both types have their own characteristics. Compared with three-axis, 4-axis simultaneous machining is generally used for products that cannot be processed by three-axis machine tools.

 

In fact, many vmc 4 axis machines are evolved from CNC milling machines. The difference between them is whether they have the ability to automatically exchange machining tools. In addition, the four-axis machining center can also complete the linkage control of more than three axes, which can better process equipment with complex surfaces.

 

The Advantages of Axis Simultaneous Machining

 

Machine tool multi-axis is the trend of machine tool development. From 2-axis, 3-axis to the recently popular 4-axis machine tools, the "number of axes" of machine tools is increasing. In the process of using, VMC 4 axis machine has the following advantages.

 

  1. The product reduces the number of clamping times and floor space

 

In the current market, the price of VMC 4 axis machine is relatively expensive, but it integrates a variety of processes, reducing the number of equipment, the number of fixtures, workshop area and equipment maintenance costs. 4 axis simultaneous machining reduces costs to a certain extent.

 

  1. It can improve the machining accuracy of the workpiece

 

4 axis simultaneous machining can effectively reduce the transformation of the reference plane. This kind of processing effectively integrates the processes, which not only improves the effectiveness of the process, but also realizes one-time clamping of the workpiece, making it easier to ensure the machining accuracy.

 

  1. Simplify the production process

 

VMC 4 axis machine can effectively shorten the production process chain and simplify the production process management effectively. For complex workpiece processing, the advantages of multi-axis CNC equipment are more obvious.

 

Moreover, the shortening of the production process chain is also conducive to reducing production operation and management costs.

 

  1. Shorten the development cycle of new products

 

For enterprises in the fields of aerospace, automotive processing, etc., the new product parts will be more complex, and the precision requirements will also be higher. This requires equipment with high-precision and high-integration processing capabilities. VMC 4 axis machine can be well qualified for this work, effectively shortening the development cycle.

 

All in all, the more "axes" a machine tool has, the better the processing efficiency and precision, and the lower the cost. That's why 4 axis simultaneous machining is so sought after.
