Casting companies set out to realize the numerical control of machine tools

If not developed, the world will stagnate, as will the machine tool casting industry. Nowadays, the development of numerical control technology provides a reliable guarantee for the development of the machine tool casting industry. In other words, the development of the casting machine tool industry is inseparable from the CNC technology. Development is an absolute truth. Any high technology cannot develop without development.

In order to keep up with the development trend of the times and promote the progress of the enterprises, most casting companies are conducting or preparing CNC machines for their machines. However, due to the limitation of the original production level, many casting companies have a large number of ordinary machine tools. If the general machine tools are removed and new CNC machine tools are purchased, a large amount of operating funds will be spent, which will bring new problems to the numerical control of casting machine tools.

Numerical control technology, that is, the use of digital control methods to achieve automatic control of a work process technology. What is controlled is usually the mechanical quantity such as position, angle, speed, etc., and the switching quantity related to the flow of mechanical energy. The occurrence of numerical control relies on the presentation of data carriers and binary data operations.

Luo Baihui, the secretary-general of the International Model Association, stated that the numerical control has become an irreversible trend in the production of modern large machines. With its many advantages, numerical control has caused a hurricane in the casting industry. The casting industry must carry out numerical control transformation. The advantages of numerical control transformation of casting machine tools are as follows: The numerical control of casting machine tools can process complex castings such as curves and surfaces that cannot be processed by aggressive machine tools. Process automation can be automated, and it is flexible and automated, resulting in a 37-fold increase in efficiency over aggressive machines.

The high precision of the processed castings and the small dispersion of the dimensions make the assembly easy, eliminating the need for workers to "repair." It can realize the concentration of multiple processes and reduce the frequent handling of castings between machine tools. With automatic alarm, automatic monitoring, automatic compensation and other self-discipline functions, it can realize long-term unattended processing. The labor intensity of the workers is reduced, labor is saved (one person can look after multiple machine tools), tooling is reduced, trial production period and production cycle of new products are shortened, and quick response to market demands can be made.

From the above analysis, we can see that the application of numerical control technology has brought significant changes to the radical manufacturing industry. This is the reason why the casting machine tool industry is catching up with the trend of numerical control.
