The Necessity and Method of CNC Transformation of Machine Tools
Introduction
Nowadays, the competition in the manufacturing industry is becoming increasingly fierce. Machine tool transformation has become the only path for enterprises to survive. CNC transformation of machine tools has become the hot spot of industrial transformation in the industry. In this paper, we will discuss the necessity and methods of CNC transformation of machine tools from the perspectives of industrial development trend, intelligent manufacturing and macroeconomic theory.
Necessity of CNC Transformation of Machine Tools
With the acceleration of industrialization and the advancement of information technology, especially the driving force of new and high technologies such as 5G and industrial Internet of Things, the demand for intelligent manufacturing is increasing. Enterprises are gradually recognizing the needs and importance of intelligent manufacturing. For example, intelligent manufacturing can achieve higher production efficiency, stronger flexibility and higher economic benefits. As an important part of intelligent manufacturing, CNC transformation of machine tools cannot be ignored in modern industrial production.
CNC transformation of machine tools is to replace the original machine tool control system with a computer numerical control system, reconstruct the original mechanical link structure, and realize the function of automatic control. CNC transformation of machine tools not only improves the accuracy of machining, but also saves labor and resources, reduces production costs, and improves production efficiency, making it an important measure for enterprises to gain a comprehensive competitiveness.
When faced with the development trend of intelligent manufacturing and the needs of enterprise transformation, CNC transformation of machine tools has become a necessary choice for machine tool enterprises. Only through the remote operation, information interconnection and intelligent analysis of CNC system, can machine tool enterprises truly realize intelligent manufacturing and meet the needs of modern industrial production.
Methods of CNC Transformation of Machine Tools
The transformation of machine tools from traditional process to CNC process can be divided into three stages: Functional extension (structured change), parameters adjustment and numerical control system updating. In addition, CNC transformation of machine tools should be followed by a full inspection system.
First, functional extension (structured change). This stage is the foundation of CNC machine tool transformation. It includes the reconstruction of machine tools structure, mechanical accessories and electric control components, etc. It requires personnel to have a good understanding of machine tools structure, so as to make changes on the basis of the original design, and then assemble and debug.
Second, parameters adjustment. In this stage, the staff should adjust the parameters of the system according to the actual requirements, such as cutting parameters, cutting speed, feed speed, cutting depth, etc. This stage is also the premise of CNC system updating.
Third, numerical control system updating. After the parameters adjustment, the correct operation of the numerical control system can be ensured. In this stage, personnel can install CNC system controller and software, debug the installation and model configuration of the system.
Finally, full inspection. A full inspection system should be established before the CNC transformation of machine tools, so that the machine can be operated smoothly and reliably after the CNC transformation.
Conclusion
With the development trend of intelligent manufacturing and the increasing needs of enterprises for transformation, CNC transformation of machine tools has gradually become a necessary choice. The CNC transformation of machine tools includes the stages of functional extension (structured change), parameters adjustment and numerical control system updating, and it should also be accompanied by a full inspection system. Through the CNC transformation of machine tools, enterprises can not only improve production efficiency, but also gain comprehensive competitiveness.
