CNC Control CNC-DX3030 Medium Size Pipe End Face Milling Machine

In the first photo, a set of CNC End Face Milling Machine made by Wuxi JACK was working on a piece of 2m diameter pipe structure. Start from it, let’s have an exploration on this kind of equipment.

1. What is the Strong Point of CNC Face Milling Machine?

1)       The conventional (Which means, non-CNC control) Steel Structure End Face Milling Machine is suitable for machining workpieces with section-shape composed from right-angle straight edges. For example: Square/ Rectangle/ BOX Beam/ H Beam/I Beam, etc.;

2)       Comparatively, CNC End Face Milling Machine is especially suitable for machining workpiece with section-shape other than the above-mentioned “regular” shape. For example, Triangle/ Trapezoid/ Circular Round, etc. Without CNC, end facing milling operation on such workpieces will be very time consuming, with inferior precision of finished product;

3)       In this respect, you can call the equipment as CNC Pipe End Face Milling Machine directly, because CNC is really natural fit for facing such workpieces as pipe, tube, and all kinds of irregular shape parts;

4)       As can be seen from the first photo, another piece of cross-column was waiting for to be processed with this CNC Pipe Face Milling Machine --- Yes, it is an all-around equipment, not confined to workpieces of Pipe/ Tube/ H Beam/ I Beam.

2. Technical Specialty of CNC Steel Structure End Face Milling Machine:

1） CNC in CNC End Face Milling Machine:

a) The first photo was taken on the machine at its back side of CNC installation, so we use the second photo to show how is the CNC assembled onto column of this Pipe CNC End Face Milling Machine;

b) This is an universal and general-purpose numerical control system, which means, not confined to be adopted in CNC-DX-series Steel Structure CNC End Face Milling Machine, but also other numerical control equipment, like CNC Strip Plate Cutting Machine, etc. As supplier of these machines, what we need to do is to compile control program embedded inside the CNC control system based on equipment;

c) One of the most-common used CNC with this CNC Face Milling Machine is Chinese mainland brand STARFIRE CNC SF-2100C, made in Beijing. With this control system, you just need to pick up the type of workpiece to be made from its library, input specific parameters for size/ angles/radian, etc., and press START--- Just go with it! Please check the attached video on working progress of the CNC End Face Milling Machine made by us;

d) The attached 3^rd sketch shows operating interface on the CNC for this pipe workpiece. Just “tell” CNC on external and internal radius, as well as milling depth to be get, the remaining jobs will be taken care with CNC；

2） Drive System of the CNC End Face Milling Machine:

a) In CNC Face Milling Machine, driving system is realized by means of servo motor and encoder. It is enforcement body for facing operation in the machine. Without it, the precision of ±0.15mm along full stroke can not be attained;

b) The servo driving system for facing operation features in relative lower power (1.5~2kW) and higher torque;

c) One group of servo driving system includes Servo Driver/ Servo Motor/ Encoder of one set each, from same supplier. The brand and model are Panasonic A6-series;

d) For one set of CNC Pipe End Face Milling Machine, there are two sets of such driving systems of different power (1.5kW for horizontal feeding, and 2kW for vertical feeding);

3)       Milling Head in CNC End Face Milling Machine:

This unit is same for both ordinary control and CNC End Face Milling Machine: 7.5kW high power and efficiency one, with extensive rotation speed range. Please check the 4^th photo;

4) The attached 5^th and 6^th photos record working moments in this CNC-DX3030 Pipe End Face Milling Machine.
