As an important mechanical equipment, CNC vertical lathe can be used to process parts of various metals, plastics and other materials. It has the advantages of high precision and high degree of automation, and is widely used in modern manufacturing industries. The factors that influence the cutting amount of this type of lathe mainly focus on the following three key points:
1. Cutting speed
Cutting speed refers to the linear speed of the turning tool relative to the workpiece. In CNC vertical lathe processing, it has a direct impact on the cutting amount. Generally speaking, the higher the cutting speed, the more material can be cut per minute, which increases the cutting amount. However, cutting at too high a speed can also lead to increased wear on turning tools, resulting in a faster increase in cutting volume. Therefore, in actual processing, the selection of cutting speed needs to be comprehensively considered based on the physical properties, hardness and other factors of the workpiece material to determine the optimal cutting amount and improve processing efficiency and product quality.
2. Cutting depth
The cutting depth refers to the depth cut by the turning tool in each cutting. Its impact on the cutting amount is similar to the cutting speed, but there are some differences. In general, the greater the depth of cut, the more material is removed per cut, resulting in increased cutting volume. However, excessive cutting depth will also cause greater vibration and impact on the lathe, which will intensify the wear of the turning tool and affect the cutting accuracy and processing quality. Therefore, in actual processing, it is also necessary to determine the optimal cutting depth through experiments and experience to achieve the optimal processing effect.
3. Cutting method
The cutting method is also one of the important factors affecting the cutting amount. In CNC vertical lathe processing, three commonly used cutting methods include forward cutting, bevel cutting and radial cutting. Among them, parallel cutting means that the turning tool cuts in a direction parallel to the workpiece surface, which can more effectively reduce the cutting amount; bevel cutting and radial cutting are different, they both require more force to cut the workpiece, resulting in Greater cutting capacity. Therefore, in actual processing, it is necessary to choose the appropriate cutting method according to needs to achieve better processing results.
