CNC Prototyping, the Way It Is Today31/7/2019

CNC Prototyping, the Way It Is Today As it was mentioned earlier, the most widespread CNC manufacturing techniques for prototyping involve cutting. Well, there are a lot of cutting techniques as well. 80% of the CNC produced parts in the world is manufactured by using CNC turning and milling. The percentage of those methods in prototyping is even higher. Some parts are made on a single piece of equipment. However. prototypes often have some particular elements, that can’t be manufactured by milling or turning. For that, such technologies as boring, slotting, planing, gear machining, grinding and polishing are employed.cnc machining metal parts CNC Turned Parts Conventional turning has always been a process for making shafts, tapers, spheres, threads, and bushings, basically any parts that have a symmetry axis. Now, with the introduction of CNC, the capabilities of turning have further increased. A milling head can be installed into the revolver head of the machine tool to virtually turn it into a milling center with a turning head. That way, compressor wheels, gears, crankshafts, and even turbine blades can be manufactured in a single setup. CNC Milled Parts for Freeform Manufacturing Milling has made a giant leap with the development of computer numerical control as well. The point is that the operator working manually can only make straight movements while milling. But the CNC breaks this limitation. The mechanically controlled motors can make the tiniest and the most precise movements that are unavailable to the best of operators. If we combine the movements of the motors along all the axes and add some tilting possibilities around those axes, we’ll get the ability to manufacture any kind of freeform surface without any special tooling. The only task is to make a suitable program. Products have been increasingly getting more complex over the years. If things were made of simple surfaces before, now we can see that virtually any product has some kind of smooth freeform surface. Manufacturing it manually is simply impossible and even writing a program with surface coordinates is really hard and will take a lot of time. And time is really important when we talk about CNC prototype machining. So, Computer Aided Manufacturing systems have been developed. They use a CAD 3D-model of the part to generate tool paths for the desired surface. However, the program won’t help you with choosing the right cutting parameters or choose the perfect material.
