What Are the Characteristics of CNC Milling

July 13,2022

CNC milling is mainly used in subtractive manufacturing. Fix the parts to be milled in the fixture on the CNC worktable, and then process the raw materials through the X, Y, and Z axes of the CNC milling machine, and rotate the tool spindle at a very high speed to cut the material, so as to achieve the ideal parts.

Features of CNC Milling

 

The application of CNC milling has the characteristics of flexibility and variety. It is used in the processing of various parts with different structures and complex shapes. On the CNC milling machine, drilling, boring, plane milling, end face milling, tapping and other processes can be completed. In addition, CNC milling has high precision and high repeatability, which can meet the requirements of high-quality machining. CNC milling effectively avoids operator errors and effectively maintains the consistency of part dimensions during small batch processing.

 

The CNC milling machine has the functions of a drilling machine and a boring machine at the same time. On the multi-variety and small-batch production line, CNC milling is used to centralize the processing procedures, which not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces the error rate of parts clamping. In addition, CNC milling also has the function of fast forward, backward and fast positioning of the tool holder, thereby reducing manoeuvring time.

 

CNC milling can also process complex profiles that are difficult to machine by CNC lathes, and even the plane curve contours and spatial surface contours of parts. This is because CNC milling has the characteristics of multiple feed coordinates and feed axis linkage.
