TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to gantry machining center technical field especially relates to a kind of numerical control gantry multi-axis composite machining center. BACKGROUND
[0002] Gantry machining center refers to the axis of main shaft Z axis and worktable vertical setting's machining center, overall structure is by double column and roof beam constitute door type structure frame's large-scale machining center machine, double column also have crossbeam in the middle.Especially suitable for processing large workpiece and complex workpiece.
[0003] The existing invention patent with publication number CN 107695794 A and publication date of February 16, 2018 discloses a numerical control machining center, comprising a bed, a segmented T-shaped groove platform, a left column, a right column, a crossbeam, a slide saddle, a protective door, a tool magazine, a machine head, an operating platform and an electrical control box; the bed is composed of a left support frame, a right support frame, a bottom support frame and a machining mounting frame; the bottom of the left support frame and the right support frame is respectively connected to the left and right sides of the bottom support frame, and the machining mounting frame is connected to the top of the left support frame and the right support frame; the machining mounting frame is a grid-shaped metal frame; the segmented T-shaped groove platform is arranged on the top of the machining mounting frame; the segmented T-shaped groove platform is composed of a plurality of installation positioning rods, and each installation positioning rod is arranged above the machining mounting frame at equal intervals from left to right.
[0004] The left column and the right column bear the gravity of the crossbeam, the slide saddle, the machine head and the tool magazine
[0005] and the gravity of the crossbeam can be balanced to some extent, so that the overall gravity of the crossbeam, the slide saddle, the machine head and the tool magazine falls on the left column and the right column, and the moment of force on the left column and the right column is small or even nonexistent, so the left column and the right column are stable in structure and are not prone to shaking during movement.
[0006] However, the following problems exist in this type of gantry machining center:
[0007] 1. This type of gantry machining center only has one milling head for machining, and for complex parts and machining processes, the tool needs to be frequently replaced for each plane, the machining efficiency is low, and the labor intensity is high;
[0008] 2. For the traditional gantry machining center, when machining multiple planes of a part, the workpiece needs to be adjusted or turned over multiple times for different machining planes, and the workpiece needs to be re-measured and aligned after each plane is adjusted, which is very low in machining efficiency, requires high operation and alignment ability of the operator, and it is difficult to ensure the machining accuracy of the workpiece;
[0009] 3. For irregular parts or large plate parts, where the workpiece cannot be reversed, traditional machine tools can only use angle milling heads for auxiliary processing. It is well known that angle milling heads have poor shock resistance and a relatively small cutting capacity. In addition, milling head disassembly is more troublesome, which wastes labor costs and the purchase cost of milling heads is also high.
[0010] 4. For gearbox and gearbox parts, the relative accuracy requirements of each shaft hole are relatively high. Once the workpiece is moved, the verticality and parallelism are difficult to control;
[0011] 5. For heavy parts, moving or reversing the workpiece requires high labor intensity, low operational safety factor, and high mechanical and manual operation costs;
[0012] 6. When processing deep cavity workpieces or long groove workpieces, the size can only be controlled by the ram lifting and lowering. At this time, the ram is prone to interference, resulting in the inability to process small-sized cavities. When processing large-hole deep cavities, as the ram descends, the ram overhang is too long, which will cause the seismic performance of the machine tool to be greatly reduced, resulting in uneven cutting, poor processing accuracy, and accelerated machine tool wear.
[0013] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a CNC gantry multi-axis composite machining center to improve the machining efficiency and precision of workpieces, reduce the labor intensity of staff and the procurement cost of milling heads. Utility Model Content
