CNC is also called computer gongs, CNCCH or CNC machine tools is actually a call over in Hong Kong, later introduced into the mainland Pearl River Delta, in fact, is the CNC milling machine, in Guang, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, someone called "CNC machining center" mechanical processing, is a new processing technology, the main work is the preparation of processing procedures, that is, the original manual Live to computer programming. Of course, you need to have the experience of manual processing.
CNC machining advantages:
1, a large number of reducing the number of tooling, processing the shape of complex parts do not need complex tooling. If you want to change the shape and size of the parts, only need to modify the parts processing procedures, suitable for new product development and reshaping.
2, stable processing quality, high machining accuracy, high repeatability, adapt to the processing requirements of the aircraft.
3, multi-species, small batch production under high production efficiency, can reduce production preparation, machine tool adjustment and process inspection time, and due to the use of the best cutting volume and reduce the cutting time.
4, can be processed by conventional methods difficult to process the complex surface, and even processing some unobservable parts of the processing.
5, the disadvantage of CNC processing is that the machine tool equipment is expensive, requiring a high level of maintenance personnel.
The future workshop can provide users with 3D printing services, but also can provide open mold injection, silicone re-mold, and CNC processing services, which CNC processing of the main materials are the following:
Aluminum alloy 6061
6061 aluminum alloy is a high quality aluminum alloy product produced by heat treatment pre-drawing process, its strength can not be compared with 2XXX series or 7XXX series, but its magnesium and silicon alloy characteristics more.
Material advantages:
It has excellent processing performance, excellent welding characteristics and plating, good corrosion resistance, high toughness and no deformation after processing, dense material without defects and easy polishing, easy color film, excellent oxidation effect and other excellent characteristics.
7075 Aluminum Alloy
7075 aluminum alloy is a cold treatment forging alloy, high strength, far better than soft steel. 7075 is one of the most powerful alloys for commercial use.
Material advantages:
Ordinary corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties and anodic reaction. Fine grains allow for better depth drilling performance, increased tool wear resistance, and more distinctive thread rolling.
Purple Copper
Pure copper (also known as purplish copper) is a ductile metal with excellent electrical conductivity and a rose-red surface. It is not pure copper, it contains 99.9% copper with some other elements added to improve the surface and properties.
Material Advantages:
It has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, ductility, deep punching and corrosion resistance.
Copper is second only to silver in electrical and thermal conductivity and is widely used to make conductive and thermally conductive equipment. Copper has good corrosion resistance in the atmosphere, seawater and certain non-oxidizing acids (hydrochloric acid, dilute sulfuric acid), alkalis, salt solutions and a variety of organic acids (acetic acid, citric acid), used in the chemical industry.
In the 1970s, the production of copper exceeded the total production of all other copper alloys.
Brass
Brass is a copper-zinc alloy. Brass made of copper and zinc is called ordinary brass.
Material Advantages:
It has high strength, hardness and chemical corrosion resistance. There are also outstanding mechanical properties for cutting and machining.
Brass has strong wear resistance. Special brass is also called special brass, which has high strength, hardness and chemical corrosion resistance. It also has outstanding mechanical properties for cutting. The seamless copper tube drawn from brass is soft and has strong wear resistance.
No. 45 steel
45 steel is also called "oil steel" in GB, which has high strength and good machinability.
Material Advantages:
With high strength and good machinability, after appropriate heat treatment can be obtained after a certain degree of toughness, plasticity and wear resistance, convenient sources of material, suitable for hydrogen welding and argon arc welding.
40Cr steel introduction
40Cr is the standard steel grade of GB in China, 40Cr steel is one of the most widely used steel in the machinery manufacturing industry.
Material advantages:
Has good overall mechanical properties, good low temperature impact toughness and low notch sensitivity. Steel hardenability is good, this steel is suitable for cyanidation and high frequency quenching treatment in addition to tempering. Cutting performance is good.
Introduction of Q235 steel
Q235 steel is a carbon structural steel, the Q in its steel number stands for yield strength. Normally, it is used without heat treatment.
Material Advantages:
The yield value decreases as the thickness of the material increases. It has a good overall performance due to the moderate carbon content, and the properties of strength, plasticity and welding are well matched, making it the most widely used.
SUS304 steel
SUS304 refers to 304 stainless steel, which is characterized by good processing performance and high toughness.
Material advantages:
Good corrosion resistance, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, low temperature strength and mechanical properties, good hot workability such as stamping and bending, no heat treatment hardening phenomenon, non-magnetic.
