Both the CNC milling machine and the CNC machining center use computer numerical control technology, and use the computer to execute the sequence logic control function of the equipment's motion track and peripheral operation according to the control program stored in advance.
As a computer is used to replace the original numerical control device composed of hardware logic circuits, the storage, processing, calculation, logical judgment and other control functions of the input operation instructions can be realized through computer software, and the generated micro-instructions can be processed and transmitted.
Drive motors or hydraulic actuators for the servo drive to drive the equipment to run.
CNC milling machine is an automatic processing equipment developed on the basis of general milling machines. The processing technology of the two is basically the same, and the structure is somewhat similar. CNC milling machines are divided into two categories: without tool magazine and with tool magazine. There are various forms of CNC milling machines. Although different types of CNC milling machines differ in composition, they have many similarities.
The machining center is a CNC milling machine. The difference is: the CNC milling machine does not have an automatic tool magazine, and the machining center has an automatic tool changer, which can meet a variety of tools, long-term, automated processing. (CNC milling machines are divided into two categories: without tool magazine and with tool magazine. The CNC milling machine with tool magazine is also called machining center.)
Gantry machining center: fixed beam type (beam fixed, worktable moving/rotating), moving beam type (beam moving up and down, worktable moving forward and backward), moving column type (fixed worktable, moving gantry), crane type (working The table is fixed and the beam moves). There are also multiple types of gantry machining centers in the above composite form.
