Machining Center Classification and Difference
[2018-08-31]

According to the classification of the guide rails: according to the form of the guide rails of the vertical machining center, the hard rails and the rails can be divided. Hard rails are suitable for heavy cutting and line motion is more sensitive.
According to the speed classification: the vertical machining center spindle speed 6000-15000rpm is low speed type, and 18000rpm is high speed type.

According to the structure classification: According to the bed structure of the vertical machining center, it can be divided into C type and gantry type.
Vertical Machining Center
The vertical machining center refers to the machining center with the spindle in the vertical state. The structure is mostly fixed column. The worktable is rectangular and has no indexing rotation function. It is suitable for processing discs, sleeves and plate parts. It generally has three linear motions. A coordinate axis and a rotary table that rotates along the horizontal axis can be mounted on the table to machine spiral parts.
The vertical machining center is easy to install, easy to operate, easy to observe and process, easy to debug, and widely used. However, due to the height of the column and the limitation of the tool changer, it is impossible to process parts that are too high. When machining the cavity or the concave profile, the chips are not easily discharged. In severe cases, the tool will be damaged, the processed surface will be damaged, and the processing will be affected smoothly. .
Horizontal machining center

Horizontal machining center refers to the machining center with the spindle in the horizontal state. Usually, it has a rotary table with automatic indexing. It usually has 3 to 5 motion coordinates. Commonly, three linear motion coordinates plus one rotary motion coordinate, workpiece After the card is loaded, the processing of the remaining four surfaces except the mounting surface and the top surface is completed, which is most suitable for adding the box-like parts.
