CNC vertical lathe is an advanced machining technology that can complete the processing tasks of parts quickly, accurately and stably. However, some users reported that when using CNC vertical lathes for processing, the speed is relatively slow. If it cannot be solved in time, it may have a certain impact on production efficiency. So, what is the reason for the slow processing speed of CNC vertical lathe?

Reason 1: Tool wear

In CNC vertical lathe processing, the degree of wear of CNC vertical lathe tools is an important factor affecting the processing speed. If the tool wear is serious, it will take a lot of time to grind or replace the tool with a new one, which will lead to slow processing speed. Solution: Check the cutting tools before processing, and promptly replace and maintain damaged or severely worn tools.

Reason 2: Improper cutting parameter settings

During CNC vertical lathe processing, the setting of CNC vertical lathe cutting parameters directly affects the processing effect and processing speed. If the cutting parameters are not set appropriately, the cutting force will be too large and the processing speed will be slow. It is more likely to occur especially in high-speed cutting. Solution: Appropriate cutting parameter settings should be made based on factors such as the hardness of the material, the number of tool teeth, and the depth of cutting.

Reason 3: The machine tool is not rigid enough

The stiffness of CNC vertical lathe is a very critical performance indicator, which directly affects the processing quality and speed. If the machine tool is not rigid enough, it will produce large vibration and resonance during the processing, resulting in slow processing speed. Solution: Choose a machine tool with good stiffness and stability, and strengthen its debugging and maintenance to ensure its normal operation and processing efficiency.

Reason 4: Processing program optimization is unreasonable

The processing program of CNC vertical lathe is realized through programming. If the program optimization is unreasonable, it will lead to slow processing speed. For example, repeating redundant processing actions in programming or using overly complex algorithms will cause the processing machine to run slowly. Solution: During the programming process, pay attention to optimizing program design and avoid unnecessary repeated actions and overly complex algorithms as much as possible.

To sum up, the reason for the slow processing speed of CNC vertical lathe may be caused by many factors such as tool wear, inappropriate cutting parameter settings, insufficient machine tool stiffness, and unreasonable optimization of the processing program. Only when processing personnel perfectly manage and adjust the above factors and comprehensively optimize the processing process in actual operations can processing efficiency be improved and production efficiency maximized.
