What Is Reverse Engineering? Reverse engineering is the process of examining existing products to determine detailed information and specifications to understand how they are manufactured and how they work. For example, many old parts used in the machine have withstood the test of time. When a c

When cutting metal on a CNC milling machine, the force required for the tool to cut into the workpiece to deform the workpiece material into chips is called the cutting force. Cutting force is an important basis for calculating cutting power, designing tools, machine tools and machine tool fixtu

Although CNC machining still belongs to the category of metal cutting processing, it has its own characteristics. It is mainly realized as a high degree of automation, a long continuous machining process, and the time spent on tool setting is more complicated and time-consuming than traditional

The right tool is the most important part of every machining process. If we want to develop milled parts, we need milling tools with specific functions. Therefore, CNC machining workshops have different tools for different operations. We may reuse some particularly reusable tools and replace old

In the past, designers needed to use simple tools such as paper and pencil to draw part drawings. With the advent and application of CAD software, it changed the design and production methods of the manufacturing industry, and soon entered the CNC machining process. CAD files are usually used fo

In the mechanical manufacturing process, precision machining includes fine grinding, polishing, super finishing, grinding, honing and fine boring and reaming. Cooling lubricant is used in the middle of these machining. It is very important to pay attention to maintaining the inherent characteris

Not everything can be done with wire EDM processing. Analyze and review the processing drawings. According to the existing processing equipment, consider the feasibility of this process method. Processing cannot be achieved in the following situations: The narrow gap is smaller than the diameter

Grinding is a machining process that can be found in almost all workshops. Some grinding operations are relatively simple, and other grinding activities may be complex, such as those used to maintain very small tolerances or to process difficult materials. Grinding has a wide range of applicatio

Computer numerical control (CNC) machining involves the use of technical equipment to automatically process materials into products, parts or prototypes. It is a form of subtractive manufacturing and has become a popular method for manufacturing precision parts used in aerospace, automotive

Machining accuracy refers to the degree of conformity between the actual geometric parameters (size, shape and position) of the parts after machining and the ideal geometric parameters. In machining, the error is inevitable, but the error must be within the allowable range. Through error analysi

When milling, turning and grinding cannot complete the task, manufacturing engineers choose EDM. It is like a binary choice: if processing is not possible, choose EDM. EDM and traditional crafts go hand in hand. The wire cutting rate of wire cutting is lower than that of milling or turning, but

Not everything can be processed by wire EDM machining. The processing pattern is analyzed and reviewed. According to the existing processing equipment, considering the feasibility of this process method, processing cannot be achieved in the following situations: The narrow gap is smaller than t

Under certain conditions, even the strongest metal parts may suffer corrosion, which occurs when the metal reacts with the surrounding environment. Any metal can suffer some degree of corrosion, although some metals will react in a different environment from others. No metal is completely safe f

Polishing refers to the use of mechanical, chemical or electrochemical effects to reduce the surface roughness of the workpiece to obtain a smooth surface. Polishing is the finishing of the surface of parts. The main purpose is to remove the processing traces of the previous process, such as kni

Although compensation is applied to different machine types for different reasons, all forms of compensation allow CNC users to consider unpredictable conditions related to the tool. Before discussing how compensation is applied to CNC usage, let us first look at compensation from a general pers

After the precision parts are processed, sticky cutting fluid, grease, dirt and other debris will appear on the surface. If the parts need to be coated/plated, all parts should be ultrasonically cleaned before plating. The purpose of cleaning parts is to remove all kinds of dirt remaining on the

What Is 5 Axis Machining 5 Axis machining is a mode of CNC machining. The machining centers we usually use now are generally three-axis three-linked machining centers. Three-axis refers to the X, Y and Z axes of the machining center. Of course, there are 4 axis machining centers. 4 axis machinin

The use of plating for surface treatment on many metal machinery and parts has many well-known benefits. The plating helps protect the part from wear and corrosion damage, improve the performance of the part or part, and even increase/decrease the electrical conductivity of the part. E

Starting from the actual production, this article summarizes the common problems and improvement methods of CNC machining process, as well as how to choose the three important factors of speed, feed rate and cutting depth in different application areas, for your reference. The Workpiece Is Overc

As a startups, it takes a lot of effort and is under tremendous pressure. Investors want to bring new products to the market as soon as possible, while founders want to ensure the high quality of products before they enter the market. Usually, these two goals are contradictory-is it possible to
