Basic Workpiece Methods for CNC Lathe Machining
Workpiece clamping methods for CNC lathes: 1. All workpiece clamping operations on CNC lathes should follow the principle of "long in the horizontal direction, short in the vertical direction." 2. Clamping with a vise on a CNC lathe: The clamping height should not be less than 10 millimeters. When machining the workpiece, it is essential to specify both the clamping height and the machining height. The machining height should be about 5 millimeters higher than the vise’s vertical dimension, aiming to ensure secure clamping while avoiding damage to the vise itself. This type of clamping is considered standard; the clamping height also depends on the size of the workpiece—larger workpieces require correspondingly greater clamping heights. 3. Clamping with a clamp plate on a CNC lathe: The clamp plate is secured to the machine table using locating pins, and the workpiece is fastened onto the clamp plate with screws.
CNC lathe machining Workpiece clamping method:
1. In CNC lathe machining, all workpiece fixtures are longer horizontally and shorter vertically.
2. Clamping of the vise on a CNC lathe: The clamping height should not be lower than... 10 millimeters—when machining a workpiece, it is essential to specify both the clamping height and the machining height. The machining height should be higher than the vertical dimension of the vise. 5 Approximately millimeters in height, the purpose is to ensure a secure grip without damaging the vise. This type of clamping is standard; the clamping height also depends on the size of the workpiece—larger workpieces require correspondingly greater clamping heights.
3. CNC lathe machining Clamping with a clamp plate: The clamp plate is secured to the workbench using clamping screws, and the workpiece is fastened to the clamp plate with screws. This type of clamping is particularly suitable for workpieces that are too tall to be reached by conventional clamping methods or for workpieces requiring significant machining forces. It works especially well with standard medium- and large-sized workpieces.
4. CNC lathe machining Clamping with a jig: When the workpiece is relatively large, the clamping height is insufficient, and it’s not permissible to tighten screws from the bottom, a jig-clamping method becomes necessary. This type of clamping requires two separate setups: First, secure the four corners using the jig, machine the other localized areas, and then re-secure the four sides to machine the corners. During the second setup, ensure that the workpiece remains firmly in place—secure it first, then loosen it. Alternatively, you can secure two opposite sides first and then machine the remaining two sides. 5. Tool clamping for CNC lathe machining: The diameter should be within... 10mm Above, the clamping length must not be less than 30mm ; diameter 10mm The following clamping length must not be less than: 20mm The tool must be securely clamped; colliding with the tool or indirectly pulling out the workpiece is strictly prohibited.
