Working Principle of ATC CNC Machine
Today we will briefly talk about the principle of CNC router tool changer machine. As we all know, the automatic tool change system refers to a processing device that realizes the tool change requirements for continuous processing between parts. The automatic tool change system is mainly composed of a tool magazine and a tool change device.
Among them, the most widely used automatic tool change methods mainly include three types, namely, rotary tool post tool change, spindle head tool change, and automatic tool change with tool magazine And so on. The tool magazine can be vertical or horizontal. Let’s talk about the principle of automatic tool change of CNC engraving machine. Let’s take a look.
The principle of automatic tool change for CNC engraving machine (but generally the equipment with automatic tool change system is mainly a machining center, but there are also ordinary engraving machines)
As mentioned above, according to the different implementation principles, automatic tool change includes rotary tool post tool change, spindle head tool change, and automatic tool change with a tool magazine.
1.Rotary tool post tool change: similar to the indexing table, the tool post can be rotated at a fixed angle to realize the exchange of new and old tools.
2.Changing the spindle head tool change method: first place the tool on each spindle head. The spindle head is replaced by the rotation of the turret to achieve the purpose of tool replacement. These two methods have simple design, short tool change time and high reliability. The disadvantage is that the number of reserved tools is limited, especially the rigidity of the spindle system that replaces the spindle head tool change method is poor, so it is only suitable for machine tools with fewer procedures and low precision requirements.
3.Automatic tool change mode with tool magazine: It is composed of tool magazine, tool selection system, tool exchange mechanism and other parts, and the structure is more complicated. Although this method has many shortcomings in the process of tool change and complex design and manufacturing, it is widely used when processing complex parts with more processes due to its high degree of automation.
The basic requirements that the automatic tool change system should meet include:
1. Short tool change time;2. High precision of repeated positioning of the tool;3. Sufficient tool storage; 4. The tool magazine takes up less space.
The above is the entire content of the principle of automatic tool change for CNC engraving machines. I hope this article can be helpful to everyone. For other engraving machine related knowledge, please refer to other articles on this site.
