How to Choose a Suitable CNC Vertical Machining Center

CNC vertical machining centers occupy an important position in modern manufacturing. However, facing the wide variety of equipment on the market, how to choose a machine tool that suits the needs of the enterprise has become a difficult problem for many users. This article will provide you with several key purchase suggestions.

Select equipment specifications according to processing requirements

• Table size: If you need to process large parts, you should choose a machine with a larger table size to ensure that the workpiece can be placed and processed stably.
• Spindle speed and power: The spindle speed and power requirements will vary when processing workpieces of different materials (such as steel, aluminum, and titanium alloys). High speed is suitable for light cutting and high surface finish processing, while high power is suitable for heavy cutting needs.

Tool magazine capacity and tool change speed
If the parts you process involve multiple processes, it is recommended to choose equipment with a larger tool magazine capacity (such as 24 tools or more) to reduce the time of frequent tool changes. In addition, high-speed tool changers can help improve production efficiency.

Brand and function of CNC system
The control system of CNC vertical machining center is the brain of the equipment. Common brands include Fanuc, Siemens, Mitsubishi, etc. When choosing, you need to pay attention to the system’s operating interface, programming compatibility, diagnostic functions, etc. to ensure that it meets the operating habits of the technical team.

Processing accuracy and stability
Processing accuracy is an important indicator for evaluating machine tool performance. It is recommended to understand the positioning accuracy and repeatability of the machine tool, and to examine whether the equipment has functions such as automatic calibration and error compensation.
