CNC Machine Tool Terms

Point control of CNC machine tools: This type of CNC machine can only control the two coordinate axes in the machining plane to drive the relative motion of the tool and the workpiece, quickly move from one coordinate position to the next coordinate position, and then control the third coordinate axis to drill.é•— cutting processing.

Contour control of CNC machine tools: This type of CNC machine tool has the ability to control several axes coordinately at the same time, that is, the ability of multi-axis coordinate linkage, so that the tool moves relative to the workpiece according to the trajectory and speed specified by the program, and continuous cutting processing is performed during the movement process. Features.

CNC control function: The CNC can control the number of feed axes that can be linked and controlled. The CNC's control feed axes are: moving and rotary axes; basic and additional axes. Such as NC lathes: As long as the two axes are linked, a control axis with more than two axes is required on a lathe with multiple tool carriers.

NC Boring and Milling Machines: Three or more control axes are required for the machining center. The greater the number of linked control axes, the more complex the CNC system and the more difficult it is to program.
