CNC machining of precision fixtures

The classification of fixtures can be divided into three types: process assembly fixtures, project testing fixtures and circuit board testing fixtures. Among them, process assembly jigs include assembly jigs, welding jigs, disassembly jigs, dispensing jigs, irradiation jigs, adjustment jigs and cutting jigs; Project testing fixtures include life testing fixtures, packaging testing fixtures, environmental testing fixtures, optical testing fixtures, shielding testing fixtures, sound insulation testing fixtures, etc.; Circuit board test fixtures mainly include ICT test fixtures, FCT functional fixtures, SMT furnace fixtures, BGA test fixtures, and so on.

CNC Technology for Turned Parts

Do more and faster with the wide variety of functions of the CNC lathe
Turning is a machining process used to make cylindrical parts, in which the cutting tool moves in a linear fashion while the workpiece rotates. Commonly performed with a lathe, turning reduces the diameter of a workpiece, usually to a specified dimension, and gives the part a smooth finish. A turning center is a lathe with a computerized numerical control. Sophisticated turning centers can also perform a wide variety of milling and drilling operations.

Turned Parts of Different Materials

Low Alloy Steel Turning
Material classification: P2.x
The ease of machining of low alloy steels depends on the alloy content and the heat treatment (hardness). For all materials in this group, the most common wear mechanisms are flange and crater wear. For hardened materials, plastic deformation is also a common wear mechanism due to the higher temperature in the cutting area.

Turning Technology of CNC Lathe

What is a CNC lathe? How to set up the turning of the CNC lathe?
Numerical control lathe or CNC lathe refers to a lathe-type machine tool that is used to machine parts of revolution using computer software that uses alphanumeric data, following the Cartesian X, Y axes. It is used to produce in quantities and with precision, because the computer that incorporates control is in charge of the execution of the piece.

Precision CNC Swiss Machining Services

Several key elements of Swiss machine turning include segmented machining, workpiece characteristics, guide bush maintenance, cutting tools, machine size, and how to avoid burrs. Swiss-style CNC lathes have excellent machining accuracy and flexibility. In addition to providing the processing performance and control advantages of traditional CNC machine tools, Swiss-style lathes also have some of their own characteristics. The efficient application of Swiss-style lathes requires a completely different method from ordinary lathe processing.

The quality of Turning Large Parts on Horizontal Lathe

In view of the repeated occurrence of pitch ripples in large horizontal lathes during turning. The possible reason is that the meshing gap of the transmission gear of the feed system is abnormal or damaged. The solution is very simple, just correct the gap. Sometimes, the gap between the pressure plate on the longitudinal sides of the large slide plate and the bed guide rail is too large, and the fixed-distance ripple appears repeatedly, and it is enough to adjust the gap appropriately.

Turning of Hard Material Parts in China

Challenge: How to re-optimize hard material part turning?
Solution: Correct application of the latest turning insert grades and geometries based on existing operating data.

Hard material turning (HPT) as a machining process has come a long way since it was widely promoted in the mid-1980s. Advances in machinery, part materials, quenching processes, cutting tools, and complete hard part turning setups have made hard part turning a highly efficient process that can be mastered by any shop.
