How to choose CNC machine tools? Eight easy steps to complete!
With the development of modern manufacturing technology, it has become a trend for enterprises to choose CNC equipment. At present, there is a wide variety of CNC equipment on the market, and how to choose CNC equipment that is suitable for our company economically and reasonably has always been a topic of concern for people. This article comprehensively discusses the issues that should be paid attention to in selection from a technical perspective.
For a manufacturing enterprise, improving production capacity often starts with technological transformation in production management, manufacturing processes, production equipment, and other aspects, which are interdependent and restrictive. In the process of technological transformation, the selection of production equipment, CNC machine tools for updating, maintenance, procurement, etc. must take into account the environment in which they will be used, how to manage them, and how to achieve the best economic results.
The selection of manufacturing equipment is to serve the manufacturing of certain products, and the selected equipment may be used for partial process processing of product parts or for all process processing. The level of manufacturing depends first and foremost on the design of the manufacturing process, which determines the methods and means used for processing, and thus also determines the basic requirements for the use of equipment. This is also the basis for technical organization and management of production. After determining the basic requirements for equipment selection, it is also necessary to choose equipment based on the level of technology available in the market. For most small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises, choosing CNC machine tools to replace old machine tools or enhance production capacity has become a development trend.
Comparing the performance of ordinary and CNC machine tools, CNC machine tools have strong ability to process complex shaped parts and adapt to various processing objects (with strong flexibility); High processing quality, precision, and efficiency; Suitable for CAD/CAM networking and integrated management of manufacturing and processing information; The equipment has the characteristics of high utilization rate and low normal operating costs.
Choosing CNC machine tools is a comprehensive technical issue, and now both domestically and internationally, a variety of equipment can be produced and provided. CNC machine tools have evolved into a large family after decades of development, capable of completing various machining and manufacturing requirements. How to choose suitable equipment from a wide variety of expensive devices, how to make these devices fully play their role in manufacturing and meet the future development of the enterprise, how to correctly and reasonably select accessories, tools, software technology, after-sales technical services, etc. that match the host, so that the purchased equipment can achieve a good investment ratio... These are all issues that the majority of buyers must consider and handle one by one.
