When selecting a CNC Machining center, the tool and handle should be selected correctly according to the processing capacity of the machining center machine tool, the performance of the workpiece material, the processing procedure, the cutting amount, and other relevant factors.

The general principle of CNC machining center tool selection is: easy installation and adjustment, good rigidity, high durability and precision. On the premise of meeting the processing requirements, try to choose a shorter tool holder to improve the rigidity of tool processing.

When selecting a tool for a CNC machining center, it is necessary to adapt the size of the tool to the surface size of the workpiece to be machined. Common machining tool selection forms include the following:

1. CNC machining centers are used to machine the peripheral contours of flat parts, often using end mills.

2. When using a CNC machining center for milling a plane, a carbide insert milling cutter should be selected.

3. When using a CNC machining center to process bosses and grooves, choose a high-speed steel end mill.

4. When using a CNC machining center to process rough surfaces or rough holes, a corn milling cutter with carbide inserts can be selected.

5. CNC machining centers are used to machine three-dimensional profiles and variable-angle contours, often using ball milling cutters, circular milling cutters, tapered, milling cutters, and disc milling cutters.

When using a CNC machining center for free-form surface machining, since the end cutting speed of the ball head tool is zero, in order to ensure the machining accuracy, the cutting line spacing is generally very dense, so the ball head is often used for surface finishing. And the flat head tool is better than the ball head tool in terms of surface machining quality and cutting efficiency. Therefore, as long as the premise of ensuring that the surface is not cut, whether it is rough machining or finishing, the flat head tool should be preferred.

It is worth mentioning that the durability and accuracy of CNC machining center tools have a great relationship with the price of the tool! It must be noted that in most cases, the choice of a good tool increases the cost of the tool, but the resulting processing quality and processing efficiency are greatly improved, which can greatly reduce the overall processing cost.
