The fully automatic chamfering machine is an automated mechanical equipment used to chamfer the edge of a workpiece. The following is a detailed introduction for you:
Application field
Metal processing industry: widely used in the processing of metal materials such as steel pipes, round bars, and steel plates. For example, in automobile manufacturing, metal pipes of automobile parts are chamfered to improve the assembly accuracy and quality of parts.
Architectural decoration industry: used for chamfering of materials such as tiles and stones to make the edges of materials smooth and beautiful, and easy to splice and install. For example, when laying floor or wall tiles, the use of a fully automatic tile chamfering machine can quickly and accurately complete the 45-degree chamfer of the edge of the tile, improving the decoration effect.
Furniture manufacturing industry: Chamfering of materials such as wood and artificial boards to increase the beauty and safety of furniture and prevent people from being scratched by sharp edges.
Working principle
Mechanical transmission type: The transmission mechanism is driven by a motor to drive the tool to rotate, and the workpiece is transported to the tool position by the feeding device for chamfering. This method has a relatively simple structure and low cost, and is suitable for occasions where the processing accuracy requirements are not extremely high.
CNC type: The CNC system is used to control the movement trajectory and processing parameters of the tool. The operator only needs to input the required chamfer size, angle, workpiece size and other parameters in the CNC system, and the CNC system will accurately control the tool to process according to the set program. It has the advantages of high processing accuracy, good repeatability, and can realize complex shape chamfering processing. It is suitable for mass production and scenes with high processing accuracy requirements.
Structural composition
Body: As the supporting frame of the entire machine, it is usually made of solid metal materials to ensure the stability and rigidity of the machine during operation.
Feeding device: Responsible for automatically conveying the workpiece to be processed to the processing position, and its feeding accuracy directly affects the accuracy of the chamfer. Common feeding methods include belt conveyor, roller conveyor, vibration plate feeding, etc., which can be selected according to different workpiece shapes, sizes and materials.
Clamping device: Used to fix the workpiece during processing to prevent the workpiece from moving or shaking, and ensure the accuracy and quality of the chamfer. The design of the clamping device needs to take into account the shape and size of different workpieces, and usually has an adjustable clamping force and clamping range.
Tool system: includes chamfering tools and tool installation and adjustment mechanisms. The material, shape and size of the tool vary according to the processing material and chamfering requirements. Common ones include carbide tools, diamond tools, etc. The installation and adjustment mechanism of the tool needs to ensure the installation accuracy and convenience of the tool replacement.
Power system: Provides power for the various moving parts of the machine, usually composed of motors, reducers, transmission belts, transmission shafts, etc. The performance of the power system directly affects the processing speed and efficiency of the machine.
Control system: It is the core part of the fully automatic chamfering machine and is responsible for controlling the automatic operation of the entire processing process. Including controlling the feeding speed of the feeding device, the clamping and loosening of the clamping device, the rotation and feeding of the tool system, and various parameter settings and monitoring during the processing.
Advantages
High precision: It can accurately control the size, angle and position of the chamfer, ensure the consistency of processing accuracy, and improve product quality.
High efficiency: It can achieve continuous and automatic processing, greatly shorten the processing time, and improve production efficiency, especially suitable for mass production.
Reduce labor intensity: It reduces the manual operation links and the labor intensity of workers, and also reduces the processing errors and quality problems caused by human factors.
Flexibility and programmability: With programmable functions, processing parameters and programs can be quickly adjusted according to different processing requirements to adapt to diverse production needs.
High safety: Usually equipped with complete safety protection devices, such as protective doors, emergency stop buttons, overload protection, etc., which reduce the risk of accidental injury to operators during processing.
Disadvantages
High equipment cost: Compared with manual or semi-automatic chamfering machines, fully automatic chamfering machines are more expensive and have a larger initial investment. For some small enterprises or users with small processing volumes, the cost pressure is greater.
High maintenance requirements: Due to its complex structure, it contains multiple systems such as mechanical, electrical, and CNC. Once a fault occurs, it is difficult to repair and requires professional technicians to repair and maintain, which increases maintenance costs and downtime.
High requirements for operators: Operators need to have certain CNC programming knowledge and equipment operation skills, and be familiar with the working principle and operating procedures of the equipment. Otherwise, they may not be able to give full play to the performance of the equipment, and may even cause equipment damage or processing accidents.
