Numeric Control Inclinable Rotary Worktable
Numeric control (NC) inclinable rotary worktable is one of the most important components of Machine Tool. This type of table allows for the rotation of the workpiece in precise angles. Thanks to its flexibility and adjustable angles, it allows precise machining of parts with complex geometries.
The basic design of NC inclinable rotary worktable consists of a base plate, an arm and a platform. The size of the base plate depends on the size of the workpiece, the dimensions of the arm dictate the range of the rotation and the platform determines the exact angle of rotation. The arm and the platform are connected to the base plate with highly accurate fixing bolts and nuts, allowing precise positioning of the workpiece.
In order to achieve precise angles when machining complex parts, the NC inclinable rotary worktable must be highly accurate and precise. The accuracy of the table is determined by the amount of backlash that is present in the rotary table. Backlash is the movement of the table’s axis in one direction, when the torque is applied in the opposite direction. Backlash results in a discrepancy between the desired angle of rotation and the actual angle achieved.
To reduce backlash and increase the accuracy of the machine, the NC inclinable rotary worktable must be finely balanced and precisely calibrated. To ensure this, there are various options available, such as double ball screws, helical rack-and-pinion systems, and pre-loaded rollers. Each of these systems offers precision and reliability, but it is important to choose a system that is specialized for the specific application.
Once the system has been chosen and installed, the NC inclinable rotary worktable needs to be fine-tuned. This can be done through the use of special tools and dedicated software. The tools allow the user to quickly identify any imbalance or misalignment present in the table, while the software helps them make the necessary adjustments. Finally, the table should be tested thoroughly, to ensure that it is capable of performing to its desired accuracy.
Besides being highly precise, the NC inclinable rotary worktable must also be reliable. This requires that the table is designed in such a way that it can withstand large loads, while still providing an effective cutting surface. To achieve this, they are usually made from cast iron or steel, and may also have protective covers or mounted guards.
The NC inclinable rotary worktable is a versatile and precise tool for manufacturing parts with complex geometries. It has the unique ability to rotate the workpiece in precise angles, making it ideal for machining parts with intricate features. The key to successful operation is to use an accurate and reliable system, and to take the necessary steps to ensure that it performs to its full potential.
