CNC milling<\/a> machine<\/strong> or CNC router<\/strong> are used to making precision machined parts<\/a>, such metal workpiece<\/a> and plastic parts <\/a>especially in rapid prototype making<\/a>. The key element is to choose suitable cutting tool, install cutter good and change cutter as per CNC machining<\/a> requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to select, install and change cutter in CNC machining<\/a> center?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The tool magazine is very important to the machining center. All kinds of working procedures are finished by the tool magazine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, there are three types of tool magazine: <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Disc type, hat type and chain type. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The selection of tool change and tool magazine in small machining center can determine the number of tools needed according to the process analysis results of the workpiece to be processed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generally, the capacity of tool magazine is determined by the number of tools needed for one part in one clamping, because when changing another part for machining<\/a>, it is necessary to re arrange the tools in small machining center, otherwise the tool management is complex and prone to errors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small five axis machining center is a very popular machine tool at present. It is mainly used in maker studios and scientific research institutions in Colleges and universities to process small parts and teaching in Colleges and universities. Its biggest characteristics are high cost performance, good stability, strong reliability and high processing accuracy. Small machining centers can process some parts of plane, curved surface and variable angle. The biggest disadvantage of small five machining centers is that they have certain constraints on the scale of machining parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the statistical data point of view, it is suitable for small machining centers to select about 20 tool magazine and horizontal machining centers to select about 40 tool magazine. Of course, it should be determined according to the actual needs. For the machining center machine tool of flexible manufacturing cell (FMC) or flexible manufacturing system (FMS), the tool magazine capacity should be large capacity, or even equipped with exchangeable tool magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The procedure of tool installation, tool change and tool selection for small machining center:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is very simple to install a tool in a small machining center. Record the type and use of the tool and the corresponding tool holder number. Select any tool holder in the tool magazine to install the tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During tool change, there are three situations as follows:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
