CNC machining center is a high-precision machining equipment that integrates automation, intelligence, compound machining high-speed. Horizontal vertical machining centers are the two types of machines that are widely used at present. What are the advantages disadvantages of the structural characteristics technical performance of the two? Next, hongweisheng precision technology will give you a detailed explanation, let's have a look.

1、 Characteristics of horizontal machining center

The horizontal machining center is relative to the vertical machining center. Its main axis is a horizontal machining center, which usually has a rotary table with automatic indexing. It generally has 3-5 motion coordinates. The common one is three linear motion coordinates plus one rotary motion coordinate. After the workpiece is installed once, it can finish the processing of the other four surfaces except the installation surface the top surface The horizontal machining center of has a five axis five linkage model, which can process the other five surfaces at a time except the bottom surface, namely the installation surface.

Horizontal machining center is most suitable for adding box type parts. Compared with the vertical machining center, the horizontal machining center is easy to remove chips, which is beneficial to machining. Due to the good structure of the horizontal machining center, some large complex parts can be processed. So, the workpieces that the vertical machining center cannot process can be processed on the horizontal machining center. But there are advantages disadvantages. Compared with vertical machining center, horizontal machining center has the disadvantages of complex structure high price.

2、 Machine features of vertical machining center

Vertical machining center refers to the machining center with the spindle in the vertical state. Its structural form is mostly fixed column, the working table is rectangular, the general model has no indexing rotation function, which is suitable for machining disc, sleeve plate parts. It generally has three linear motion coordinate axes, its X, y Z axis servo are controlled by the direct connection mode. It is a semi closed-loop vertical machining center, which has a large rail load It has the advantages of wide span, high precision, compact reasonable structure overall dimension. The main shaft is driven by servo motor through synchronous belt, which can realize one-time clamping of various complex parts such as discs, plates, shells, cams, molds, etc. it can complete various processes such as drilling, milling, boring, expanding, reaming, rigid tapping, etc. it is suitable for the production of many varieties, small medium-sized batch products, can meet the requirements of complex, high precision Processing of parts. we can install a rotary table rotating along the horizontal axis on the worktable, which is often called the fourth rotary axis, to meet the processing requirements of special parts the processing of spiral parts.

The vertical machining center is easy to install, operate, observe debug, so it is widely used. However, this type of machine is limited by the height of the column the tool change device, so it is allowed to process too high parts. When machining the cavity concave surface, the chips are easy to be discharged. In serious cases, the tools will be damaged, the machined surface will be damaged, the smooth processing will be affected. It can be solved by adding automatic chip remover oil cooler.
