In the realm of iron mold processing, manufacturers often grapple with a series of challenges that can significantly impede the quality and efficiency of production. Vibration during machining is a common headache, leading to precision deviations and poor surface roughness. These issues not only affect the final quality of the iron molds but also reduce production efficiency and increase costs.
Let's delve into how the bridge - type double - column structure addresses these pain points. Unlike traditional vertical or gantry structures, the bridge - type double - column structure features a fixed crossbeam and a workbench design. This innovative design effectively reduces the transmission of vibration, significantly enhancing the rigidity and dynamic stability of the machine tool. As an engineer from Kaibo CNC, I've witnessed firsthand how this structure can transform the iron mold processing landscape.
To understand the advantages more clearly, let's compare it with traditional structures. Traditional vertical machines often suffer from limited rigidity, especially when dealing with heavy - cutting tasks. The vibration generated during the machining process can easily be transmitted to the workpiece, resulting in poor surface finish and low precision. In contrast, the bridge - type double - column structure, with its fixed crossbeam, acts as a stable support, minimizing the impact of vibration on the machining process. The workbench, on the other hand, provides a solid base for the workpiece, further enhancing the overall stability of the machine.
Now, let's look at some real - world application scenarios. In the processing of large cast iron parts and inserts, the bridge - type double - column structure has shown remarkable results. For example, in a customer's factory, they used the DC1113 medium - sized double - column CNC milling machine for large iron mold manufacturing. Before switching to the DC1113, they were using a traditional vertical milling machine. The data shows that with the DC1113, they were able to increase the processing efficiency by 30%. They could process 20 more large iron molds per day compared to the previous machine, which means they could produce approximately 600 more molds per month. Moreover, the surface roughness of the processed iron molds was reduced from Ra 6.3 to Ra 3.2, indicating a significant improvement in the quality of the products.
The bridge - type double - column structure, as seen in the DC1113 medium - sized double - column CNC milling machine, offers unparalleled stability and efficiency in heavy - cutting and complex - contour iron mold processing, making it a game - changer in the iron mold manufacturing industry.
However, to ensure the long - term stable operation of the machine, proper maintenance is crucial. Here are some key maintenance points. First, the lubrication of the guide rails is essential. Regularly check and replenish the lubricant to reduce friction and wear, which can extend the service life of the guide rails. Second, thermal balance control is also important. Temperature changes can cause the machine to expand or contract, affecting the machining accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a stable temperature environment and use appropriate cooling systems. Finally, regular calibration of the machine is required to ensure its accuracy. By following these maintenance tips, you can keep your machine running smoothly and efficiently for a long time.
