In the cutting process, the thin wall is easily deformed by the cutting force, which leads to the appearance of an oval or a “waist shape” with a small middle and large ends. In addition, thin-walled bushings are prone to thermal deformation due to poor heat dissipation during proces

The ability to withstand wear and indentation are two very important attributes of certain types of metals. Hardness, the measurement of these properties, is a key consideration when deciding which metal to choose. In order to ensure that the hardness of the metal substrate is appropriate, some

In CNC machining, tool life refers to the time from when the tool tip cuts the workpiece to when the tool tip is scrapped or the actual length of the workpiece surface. Tool nose machining time is the main evaluation index for tool companies to calculate tool life. The service life of the genera

Machining accuracy refers to the degree to which the actual geometric parameters (size, shape and position) of the part after machining are in line with the ideal geometric parameters specified in the drawings. The higher the degree of this conformity, the higher the machining accuracy. In machi

Polishing refers to the use of mechanical, chemical or electropolishing action to reduce the surface roughness of the workpiece to obtain a bright and smooth surface. It is the modification of the surface of the workpiece by using polishing tools and abrasive particles or other polishing me

In the broad concept of industrial design, engineering drawing or technical drawing is an essential skill for designers to engage in physical production. Engineering drawings use standardized language and symbols to accurately and visually communicate all the information needed to manufacture a

In the process of machining, some situations that are difficult to process with standard tools are often encountered, so the production of non-standard tools is very important for machining. The use of non-standard tools in metal cutting is more common in milling, so this article mainly introduc

Why Use A Thread Mill To Mill Large Diameter Threaded Holes? When a hole needs to be threaded, traditional tapping, cold forming tapping or thread milling can basically be done. Thread milling is the first choice if it is a large hole, i.e. a hole with a diameter of 1″ to 1.5″ or mor

Stainless steel is a relatively common and difficult material to machine, but with some cutting skills, cutting is not as difficult as you think. The characteristics of milling stainless steel are: the adhesion and fusion of stainless steel are strong, and the chips are easy to adhere to the cut

It is not difficult to process steps with a surface grinder. It should be noted that the steps can be ground from two directions. The basis for choosing which surface to cut the steps from is efficiency. As shown in the figure below, if the same part is changed in one direction, the grinding eff

EDM is popular for obtaining extremely complex shapes that are difficult to machine with milling. It also excels in different applications of hard materials like titanium. EDM is a subtractive manufacturing technique that uses electrical discharge for machining. There are two types of EDM, sinke

Some people can’t tell the difference between end mills and keyway milling cutters. Although their use is similar in some scenarios, it does not mean that they can replace each other. Today, I will give you a popular science: end mills and keyway milling. What is the difference between kni

With a variety of processing technologies appearing on the market, they are gradually known or recognized by us. In the industry, CNC machining is still a processing technology that is used more often. However, according to many users, machining allowances are left on CNC machining parts during

Machining center is a comprehensive equipment with milling machine, boring machine, drilling machine and other functions. It has high production efficiency. CNC milling machine generally does not need to use special process equipment such as special fixtures. It is enough to clamp the tool and a

The selection of cutting tools is one of the important contents in the CNC machining process, which not only affects the machining efficiency of the machine tool, but also directly affects the machining quality of the parts. CNC tools are one of the prerequisites for improving machining efficien

1. What is grinding? Grinding is a processing method that removes the excess layer on the surface of the workpiece by the cutting action of the abrasive tool, so that the surface quality of the workpiece meets the predetermined requirements. Common grinding forms usually include: cylindrical gri

Aluminum alloys are the relatively soft metals of various alloys. Due to their light weight, aluminum alloys are ideal for machining. Although it has the advantages of light weight and easy processing, it is difficult to use for mechanical parts that require high strength. That’s why we us

Nowadays, in movies, airports, and food production, robots seem to work everywhere, even in factories that manufacture other robots. Robots have many different functions and uses, and as their manufacturing becomes easier and cheaper, they are becoming more and more common in the industry. As th

The CNC machining center usually does not need to use special fixtures and other special process equipment. When replacing the workpiece, it only needs to call the program clamping tool and adjust the tool data of the cnc machining center stored in the numerical control device, thus greatly

Aluminum precision parts and products are popular because of their light weight and exquisite appearance, and they are more and more widely used in industrial and daily necessities. With the continuous advancement of science and technology, people’s demand for product diversity is getting
