1. Suitable for processing parts with periodic composite production. Some products have cyclical and seasonal market demands. If a specialized production line is selected, it may result in small losses, low processing efficiency with general equipment, unstable quality, and difficult to ensure quantity. After the first piece trial cutting of the selected machining center is completed, the program and relevant production information can be retained, and the next time the product is produced, as long as there is a long preparation time, production can begin.
2. Suitable for processing efficient and high-precision workpieces. Some parts have very little demand, but they are crucial components that require high precision and short construction periods. Using traditional processes requires multiple machine tools to work harmoniously, with a long cycle and low efficiency. In the long process flow, waste products are easily produced due to human influence, resulting in significant economic losses., Choosing a processing center for processing, the production is completely controlled by the program, avoiding long process flow, reducing hardware investment and human interference, and has the advantages of high production efficiency and stable quality.
3. Suitable for workpieces with suitable batches
The flexibility of processing center production is not only reflected in the rapid response to special requirements, but also in the ability to quickly complete batch production and improve market competitiveness. The processing center is suitable for small and medium-sized batch production, especially for small batch production. When using the processing center, try to make the batch size larger than the economic batch size to achieve outstanding economic results. With the continuous development of machining centers and auxiliary tools, the economic batch size is becoming smaller and smaller. For some miscellaneous parts, 5-10 pieces can be produced, and even single pieces can be considered using machining centers.
4. Suitable for processing parts with disorderly shapes
The use of four axis linkage and five axis linkage machining centers, as well as the mature development of CAD/CAM skills, have significantly increased the level of clutter in machining parts. The use of DNC makes the processing content of the same program sufficient to meet various processing requirements, making automatic processing of miscellaneous parts very easy.
5. Other features
The machining center is also suitable for processing workpieces with multiple workstations and concentrated processes, as well as difficult to measure workpieces. Additionally, workpieces that are difficult to clamp or that rely solely on alignment and positioning to ensure machining accuracy are not suitable for production on machining centers.
