CNC machining mold plates refers to the process of using CNC machine tools to accurately process mold plates. This process involves multiple links such as CNC programming, machine tool operation, material removal, etc., and finally obtains mold plates that meet the design requirements.
1. Definition and principle
Definition: CNC machining mold plates refers to the high-precision and high-efficiency processing of mold plates by CNC machine tools to meet the strict requirements of shape, size and surface quality in mold manufacturing.
Principle: CNC machine tools control the movement of machine tools through pre-programmed programs, so that the tool of the machine tool performs cutting, drilling, milling and other processing operations on the mold plate according to the predetermined trajectory, so as to obtain the required mold shape.
2. Processing process
Programming: First, it is necessary to use CAD/CAM software to program according to the design drawings and requirements of the mold plate to generate G codes that can be recognized by CNC machine tools.
Preparation: Before processing, the CNC machine tool needs to be debugged and prepared, including installing tools, setting processing parameters, checking the status of the machine tool, etc.
Processing: Place the mold plate on the workbench of the CNC machine tool, start the machine tool, and the machine tool processes according to the predetermined program. During the machining process, the CNC machine tool will automatically control the tool's motion trajectory and cutting depth to ensure machining accuracy and efficiency.
Inspection: After machining, the mold plate needs to be inspected, including size measurement, shape inspection, surface quality assessment, etc., to ensure that the mold plate meets the design requirements.
3. Features and Advantages
High precision: CNC machine tools have extremely high machining accuracy and can meet the high-precision requirements for size and shape in mold manufacturing.
High efficiency: CNC machine tools can perform machining continuously and automatically, greatly improving production efficiency.
Flexibility: Through programming and tool replacement, CNC machine tools can process mold plates of various shapes and sizes, with high flexibility.
Consistency: The machining process of CNC machine tools is stable and reliable, which can ensure the consistency and interchangeability of mold plates in the same batch.
4. Application Fields
CNC machining mold plates are widely used in mold manufacturing, automobile manufacturing, aerospace, electronics and electrical appliances and other fields. In mold manufacturing, the mold plate is an important part of the mold, and its machining quality and precision directly affect the use effect and life of the mold. Therefore, it is of great significance to use CNC machining technology for mold plate machining.
