1. Strong adaptability to processing objects, suitable for the characteristics of single-piece production of molds and other products, providing suitable processing methods for mold manufacturing.
2. High machining accuracy and stable machining quality.
3. Capable of multi-axis linkage, able to process complex-shaped parts.
4. When the machined parts change, generally only the CNC program needs to be modified, saving production preparation time.
5. The machine tool itself has high precision and rigidity, allowing for favorable machining conditions and high productivity (typically 3 to 5 times that of conventional machine tools).
6. High level of automation in machine tools, reducing labor intensity.
7. Conducive to modern production management. CNC machine tools use digital information and standard codes for processing and transmitting information. They employ computer control methods, laying the foundation for computer-aided design, manufacturing, and integrated management.
8. Requires higher skills for operators and even higher technical requirements for maintenance personnel.
9. High reliability.
CNC machine tools are automated machine tools equipped with a program control system that can make the machine tool move and process parts based on pre-programmed instructions.
They integrate the latest technologies in mechanics, automation, computers, measurement, microelectronics, etc. Various sensors are used in CNC machine tools, including photoelectric encoders, linear scales, proximity switches, temperature sensors, Hall sensors, current sensors, voltage sensors, pressure sensors, liquid level sensors, rotary transformers, induction synchronizers, speed sensors, etc. These sensors are mainly used to detect position, linear displacement and angular displacement, speed, pressure, temperature, etc.
1. Requirements for Sensors in CNC Machine Tools
1) High reliability and strong anti-interference capability.
2) Meet the requirements of accuracy and speed.
3) Easy to use and maintain, suitable for the operating environment of machine tools.
4) Low cost.
Different types of CNC machine tools have different requirements for sensors. Generally, large-scale machine tools require high speed response, while medium-sized and high-precision CNC machine tools prioritize accuracy.
2. Application of Induction Synchronizers
Induction synchronizers are made based on the principle that the mutual inductance of two planar coils changes with position. Their function is to convert angular or linear displacement into the phase or amplitude of induced electromotive force, and they can be used to measure linear or angular displacement.
They can be divided into linear type and rotary type based on their structure. The linear induction synchronizer consists of a fixed scale and a sliding scale. The fixed scale is installed on the machine tool bed, and the sliding scale is installed on the moving part and moves with the worktable. The rotary induction synchronizer has a fixed stator and a rotating rotor.
Induction synchronizers have the advantages of high accuracy, high resolution, strong anti-interference capability, long service life, simple maintenance, long-distance displacement measurement, good processability, and low cost. Rotary induction synchronizers are widely used in machine tool and instrument rotary tables, as well as various rotary servo control systems.
