How to choose a gantry machining center

How to choose a gantry processing? I want to purchase a gantry machining center editor will take you to refer to it from the following perspectives:

1. Select the machine tool specifications, the size of the workbench, and the size of the workbench of the required machine tool and the stroke of the three straight-line coordinate systems accordingly, according to the size of the machining workpiece. The workbench size should ensure that the workpiece can be clamped smoothly on it, and the processing size must be within each coordinate stroke. In addition, the limitations of the tool change space and the interference zone of each coordinate must be considered.

2. Selection of tool magazine capacity. When selecting, the user can determine the required number based on the process analysis results of the workpiece to be processed. Usually, the capacity of the tool magazine is determined by the number of tools required for one part in one clamping, because when processing another part, the tool needs to be rearranged, otherwise the tool management will be complicated and error-prone. Of course, it must be finalized according to actual needs.

3. Selection of the object to be processed. Generally speaking, parts with the following characteristics are suitable for processing in machining centers: multi-process intensive workpieces, cumbersome positioning, and repeated production workpieces. In addition, even if the workpiece is different in shape and size, it is similar to the workpiece, making it easy to realize the parts that are group machining (GT) processes.

4. Selection function of machine tool and accessories. The selection function is mainly for CNC systems. In addition, there are: square T-shaped sliding pillow, spindle gear box, spindle oil cooler, spindle center water outlet, fully automatic right angle, dual output, universal angle milling head, etc.

5. Selecting machine tool accuracy users choose machine tools with corresponding accuracy levels according to the machining accuracy requirements of the workpiece.
