Application of Linear Scales in Gantry Machining Center
As a manufacturer of gantry machining centers, we have been continuously exploring ways to enhance the machining accuracy and stability of our machines. The linear scale, as a core component for high-precision measurement, serves as the technical foundation for achieving these goals.
In the wave of "digital and intelligent manufacturing" in 2025, mill-turning composite machining and five-axis machining have become core technology options for high-end manufacturing. Both break through the limitations of traditional machining, but the differences in their technological paths have led to selection dilemmas for enterprises.
The core of the double-spindle lathe linkage processing technique lies in enabling the two spindles to work synchronously and collaboratively by means of the alignment processing method. Through precise synchronous control parameter Settings, the tools driven by the left and right spindles can simultaneously process symmetrical parts. With a single clamping, the processing operations at both ends of the part can be completed. This fundamentally avoids the problem of tool marks caused by secondary clamping in traditional single-spindle processing, ensuring that there are no tool marks on the surface of symmetrical parts and meeting the requirements of high-precision processing.
To address the core issue of "common faults in 5-Axis Machining Center processing: rapid tool wear and rough surface", it is necessary to first clarify the essence of the fault - 90% of such problems do not stem from equipment performance defects, but are the result of the combined effect of "product mismatch" and "inappropriate process parameters". A mismatch between the hardness of the cutting tool material and that of the workpiece can lead to insufficient red hardness of the cutting tool, reducing its service life by 70% sharply. Substandard precision of auxiliary tools can cause fluctuations in cutting force and accelerate local wear at the tool tip. However, process issues such as excessively high feed rates and lack of cooling and lubrication will directly lead to coarsening of the cutting marks and the appearance of "tool biting marks" on the surface, causing the roughness to exceed the standard.
Are you struggling with low productivity caused by excessively long idle time (accounting for 30%-40% of total machining time), time-consuming tool changes (8-12 seconds per change), and “conservative or mismatched” cutting parameters? This article provides solutions to each challenge—from reducing unnecessary movements through G-code optimization to achieving “second-level tool changes” by refining tool change procedures, and optimizing cutting parameters for different materials. All methods include specific parameter tables and real-world case studies, enabling direct application to solve efficiency issues.
While boring machines and milling machines are both essential in machining, they serve distinct roles: milling machines excel in surface and contour machining with high efficiency, ideal for batch production of small to medium parts; boring machines specialize in precise hole system machining, especially for large workpieces requiring deep or coaxial holes. Rather than being substitutes, they complement each other—through coordinated workflows like "milling for roughing, boring for finishing" or "boring reference holes before milling complex structures," manufacturers can achieve both high precision and productivity in complex part manufacturing.
