At present, there are many methods and equipment used in mechanical machining centers, among which CNC four axis machining center is a common machining method. Initially, three-axis machining was commonly used, but in terms of performance, functionality, and adaptability, four axis machining is better. Today, we will follow Shenzhen EMAR Precision Technology Co., Ltd., a CNC precision machining manufacturer, to learn about the performance and processing characteristics of CNC 4-axis machining centers.

Although CNC four axis machining is now common in the industry, there is not much theoretical data in its development process. Therefore, various problems are often encountered in practical applications, such as tool problems, which can also affect the overall equipment efficiency.

Four axis machining centers are mainly divided into two types: horizontal and vertical. Both types have their own characteristics. Generally, if the application is horizontal, a B-axis can be added to the Y-axis, and the programming method is similar to that of 3-axis; It can rotate 4 sides to achieve the highest precision requirement. Compared to three-axis machines, four axis machines are generally used for needs that cannot be processed by three-axis machines, such as parts that cannot be machined with depth and angle limits, common products such as fan blades and worm gears.

In fact, many CNC four axis machining centers have evolved from CNC milling machines, and the difference between them is whether they have the ability to automatically exchange machining tools. The former can perform automatic exchange well, with the ability to automatically change tools in one clamping and complete multiple processing functions. In addition, the four axis machining center can also achieve linkage control of three or more axes, which can better process equipment with complex surfaces.

In summary, a four axis machining center is an efficient and high-precision CNC machine tool that can complete multiple processes with just one clamping. It also has complete tool functions, including automatic tool changing.
