In the manufacturing industry, especially in high - precision sectors such as semiconductors and new - energy battery production, graphite processing is a crucial step. However, the dust generated during graphite processing has long been a headache for manufacturers, causing significant impacts on both workpiece quality and equipment lifespan.
Graphite dust is extremely fine, and it can easily penetrate into the key components of machine tools. For example, when dust adheres to the guide rails and lead screws, it acts like sandpaper, accelerating the wear of these components. According to industry research, in traditional graphite processing environments without effective dust control, the wear rate of guide rails can increase by up to 30% compared to clean environments. This wear leads to dimensional drift of workpieces, with the dimensional error of processed workpieces potentially increasing by 0.05 - 0.1mm, far exceeding the precision requirements of high - end manufacturing.
Moreover, graphite dust can also cause serious damage to the electrical systems of machine tools. Once dust accumulates on electrical components, it can lead to short - circuits and malfunctions. Statistics show that in graphite processing workshops with poor dust control, the failure rate of electrical systems can be as high as 20% higher than normal, resulting in frequent machine downtime and significant losses in production efficiency.
Traditional dust control methods in graphite processing, such as simple exhaust systems and partial enclosures, have significant limitations. Simple exhaust systems can only remove a small amount of dust in the air, but they cannot prevent dust from adhering to machine tool components. Partial enclosures also cannot completely isolate dust, and there are still many gaps through which dust can enter the interior of the machine tool.
Ningbo Kaibo CNC's DC6060G wet graphite machining center offers a revolutionary solution to the graphite dust problem. This machine adopts a fully - sealed cover structure and a wet - flushing system, creating a double - protection mechanism.
The fully - sealed cover structure of the DC6060G completely isolates the machining area from the external environment. It is made of high - strength and air - tight materials, effectively preventing dust from escaping during the machining process. Through practical testing, this fully - sealed cover can block more than 95% of graphite dust, greatly reducing the amount of dust in the workshop environment.
The wet - flushing system is another key feature of the DC6060G. During the machining process, the system sprays a fine mist of water onto the machining area, which immediately captures and settles the graphite dust. The water also cools the cutting tool, reducing tool wear and improving machining efficiency. Tests show that with the wet - flushing system, the tool life can be extended by up to 20%, and the machining efficiency can be increased by 15%.
By effectively preventing dust from entering the key components of the machine tool, the double - protection mechanism of the DC6060G significantly improves the machining repeatability and equipment stability. In actual production, the repeatability of workpiece dimensions can be controlled within ±0.01mm, which meets the high - precision requirements of semiconductor and new - energy battery manufacturing.
Let's take a semiconductor manufacturing company as an example. Before using the DC6060G, the company's graphite processing workshop had frequent machine tool failures, and the dimensional error of workpieces was relatively large. After introducing the DC6060G, the machine tool failure rate decreased by 15%, and the pass rate of workpieces increased from 85% to 95%. These data clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the DC6060G in solving the graphite dust problem.
