Эти методы могут помочь производителям преодолеть проблемы, связанные с труднообрабатываемыми материалами, сложной геометрией и жесткими допусками, что в конечном итоге приведет к созданию успешных деталей, обработанных на станках с ЧПУ.


Например, высокоскоростная обработка предполагает использование режущих инструментов с оптимизированной геометрией, покрытием и параметрами обработки для достижения значительно более высоких скоростей резания и подачи при сохранении точности и качества поверхности. Этот метод особенно полезен для сокращения времени цикла, повышения производительности и продления срока службы инструмента, особенно при обработке твердых металлов и сплавов. С другой стороны, многоосевая обработка позволяет изготавливать сложные детали с меньшим количеством установов, сокращает время обработки и повышает точность, позволяя режущему инструменту перемещаться по нескольким осям одновременно.


Трохоидальное фрезерование, также известное как динамическое фрезерование или адаптивное фрезерование, представляет собой высокоэффективный метод обработки, который предполагает использование небольших круговых траекторий инструмента с переменным радиальным шагом для значительного снижения сил резания, тепловыделения и износа инструмента при сохранении высокой скорости съема материала. и отделка поверхности. Этот метод особенно эффективен для обработки твердых материалов, тонкостенных деталей и сложных деталей и может помочь добиться успешных результатов обработки деталей с ЧПУ с повышенной стабильностью процесса и сокращением времени обработки.


Внедрение передовых методов обработки требует глубокого понимания процесса обработки, характеристик режущего инструмента и динамики станка, а также способности оптимизировать траектории движения инструмента и параметры обработки на основе конкретных требований к деталям и характеристик материала. Применяя передовые методы обработки, производители могут расширить свои возможности и конкурентоспособность, производить высококачественные сложные детали и добиваться успеха в проектах обработки с ЧПУ.
