The difference between turn-milling compound and five-axis machining center

Simply speaking, the turn-milling compound can cover the processing of the five-axis machining center, but the five-axis can not do the turn-milling compound processing. Turning and milling compound is in fact the extension of lathe function, mainly to the lathe function and then add the power head, increase the milling and drilling function of the milling machine, thus reducing the product processing technology to improve the efficiency.

Machining center is "CNC milling machine with tool library" it has all the functions of milling machine, and can automatically change the tool, so reduce the labor intensity, improve the work efficiency. The main function of the five-axis turn-milling compound is the lathe, the fixture is generally the chuck on the spindle, and the workpiece is generally the rotary body. The main function of the five-axis machining center is to add the center. The five-axis machining center consists of three moving axes of XYZ and two rotating axes of AC. The processing workpiece is generally plate and various shapes.

Turn-milling compound has the following advantages:

1, high precision: avoid the process scattered artificial, machine error;

2, high efficiency: effectively reduce the production preparation time, improve the utilization rate of machine tools;

3, reduce the cost: multiple processes are completed in turn, reduce the number of machine tools, so that it is easier to plan production, save the investment cost and workshop area;

4, the whole casting bed, guide rail span, good rigidity;

5, turning, milling, drilling, tapping once clamping complete, high precision, high efficiency;

6, import milling power head, high reliability, optional specifications, optional: double milling power head, three milling power head, two-way double milling power head, two-way four-milling power.

It is because the turn-milling compound has so many advantages, more importantly, these advantages are in line with the modern metal processing industry to high efficiency, low cost processing mode of demand. So the development of turning milling machine is bound to go to a higher level under the promotion of the market.

The advantages of five-axis turn-milling complex machining center:

1. Higher process scope: By adding special function modules, more process integration can be realized. Such as gear processing, internal and external grinding processing, deep hole processing, cavity processing, laser quenching, online measurement and other functions integrated into the turning milling center, truly achieve the complete processing of all complex parts.

2, higher efficiency: through the configuration of double power head, double spindle, double tool holder and other functions, to achieve multi-tool processing at the same time, improve processing efficiency.

3. Upsizing: As large parts are generally complicated in structure, require more parts and processes to be processed, and time-consuming in installation and positioning, one of the main advantages of composite machining of turn-milling is to reduce the time of re-installation and adjustment of parts in multi-process and multi-process processing, so it is more advantageous to adopt five-axis turn-milling center for composite machining.

4. Modular structure and rapid recombination of functions: The rapid recombination of five-axis turn-milling center is one of the important conditions for its rapid response to market demand and market share, and modular structure is the basis for the rapid recombination of five-axis turn-milling center functions. The advanced idea of five-axis turning milling technology is to improve product quality and shorten product manufacturing cycle.
