How to operate to extend the lifespan of your CNC machine tool!

Numerical control machining refers to a mechanical processing method that uses digital information to control the displacement of parts and cutting tools during part processing on CNC machine tools. It is an effective way to solve problems such as variable part varieties, small batch sizes, complex shapes, high precision, and achieve efficient and automated machining.

The overall process specifications for CNC machine tool machining and traditional machine tool machining are consistent, but due to the fact that CNC is a one-time clamping and continuous automatic machining completes all turning processes, some precautions need to be taken after CNC machine tool machining is completed.

1. Remove chips, wipe the machine tool, and maintain cleanliness between the machine tool and the environment.

2. Pay attention to checking or replacing the oil wiping plate on the worn machine tool guide rail.

3. Check the condition of lubricating oil and coolant, and add or replace them in a timely manner.

4. Turn off the power supply and main power supply on the machine operation panel in sequence.

5. When starting up the machine tool, the principles of returning to zero first (except for special requirements), manual, jog, and automatic should be followed. The operation of machine tools should follow the principle of low-speed, medium speed, and then high-speed, with the low-speed and medium speed running time not less than 2-3 minutes. Only after confirming that there are no abnormal situations can work begin.

6. It is strictly prohibited to strike, correct or adjust the workpiece on the chuck or between the tips. The next step of work can only be carried out after confirming the clamping of the workpiece and the tool.

7. The operator must stop the machine when changing tools, workpieces, adjusting workpieces, or leaving the machine tool during work.

8. The safety and protective devices on the machine tool must not be dismantled or moved by the operator at will.

9. Before the machine tool starts processing, a program verification method must be used to check whether the program used is similar to the part being processed. After confirming that it is correct, the safety cover can be secured and the machine tool can be started for part processing.
