How to choose the CNC cutter, CNC cutter selection skills
1. The influencing factors of nc tool selection
When choosing a tool types and specifications, mainly consider the following factors:
(1) the nature of the production
Here production nature refers to the batch size of the parts, mainly from the consideration on the tooling cost for the influence of the cutting tool selection.
In mass production when the use of special tools, for example, can be economical, but in single piece or small batch production, the choice is more suitable for some standard tools.
(2) types of machine tools
Used to complete the process of nc machine tools to the choice of cutting tool type (drilling, turning or milling cutter). In the guarantee system of workpiece and cutting tool system under the condition of good rigidity, allowed the use of high productivity tools, such as high-speed cutting tool and feed cutting tool.
(3) the nc machining program
Different CNC processing program can use different types of cutting tools. Such as processing can be used to drill hole and reaming drilling, drilling and boring cutter can be used to carry on the processing.
(4) the size and shape of the workpiece
Size and shape of the workpiece also affect the choice of the cutting tool types and specifications, such as special surface should use special tool to processing.
(5) the processing surface roughness
Machining surface roughness influence the structure shape of cutting tool and cutting parameter, such as casting rough milling processing, can use coarse milling cutter, finish-milling, had better use fine-tooth milling cutter.
