CNC vertical lathe is a commonly used processing method, and it is very important to control the tool height, because the tool height directly affects the quality and efficiency of the entire processing process. So how to get the tool height of CNC vertical lathe? The following is a detailed introduction for you.

1. Determine the cutting surface height

First, you need to confirm the cutting surface height, which is the height difference between the machine tool and the workpiece surface. When determining this value, factors such as the material, size, shape, and accuracy of the workpiece usually need to be considered. Generally speaking, the height of the cutting surface can be determined by referring to the workpiece design drawing or process requirements.

2. Adjust the tool

After determining the cutting surface height, the tool position needs to be adjusted. Specific adjustment methods include:

- Determine the spindle rotation direction and speed, and install appropriate tools according to process requirements

- Determine the position and inclination angle of the blade so that it is perpendicular to the workpiece surface and maintain an appropriate inclination angle to ensure the smoothness and accuracy of the processed surface.

- Adjust the position of the tool to maintain an appropriate height difference with the workpiece surface. Generally speaking, adjustments need to be made through trial machining.

3. Adjust cutting parameters

The adjustment of cutting parameters will affect factors such as tool cutting force, thermal deformation and surface quality during the cutting process. When adjusting cutting parameters, a comprehensive analysis needs to be conducted based on process requirements and actual conditions. Factors that usually need to be considered include:

- Select appropriate cutting speed, feed rate and cutting depth to achieve reasonable processing efficiency and surface quality

- Ensure stable supply and use of cutting fluid to improve processing efficiency and extend tool life

- Pay attention to the wear of the tool and replace the blade in time to ensure processing quality and efficiency.

In short, during CNC vertical lathe processing, the adjustment of tool height is a very important process, which requires comprehensive analysis and adjustment based on process requirements and actual conditions to ensure processing efficiency and surface quality.
