Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining technology, specifically to a six-axis machining module. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional machine tools, the machining axis is typically mounted on a rotary cutter head structure, allowing only one workpiece to be processed at a time. Adding machining axes to achieve multi-station machining significantly complicates the device's structure and increases the load considerably. This design is highly susceptible to damage to the axial support structure, affecting the equipment's stability and lifespan. Furthermore, the limitation of single-station machining results in relatively low production efficiency, failing to meet the demands of high-efficiency production. Utility Model Content
[0003] (I) Problems to be solved
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a six-axis machining module in light of the current state of the technology.
[0005] (II) Technical Solution
[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A six-axis machining module is proposed, including a crossbeam with two vertically arranged transverse guide rails mounted on it. A movable slider is mounted on each transverse guide rail. The movable slider is fixedly connected to a mounting plate. A first nut seat and a second nut seat are mounted on the side of the mounting plate facing the transverse guide rails. A first nut is mounted on the first nut seat, and a second nut is mounted on the second nut seat. An x-axis lead screw is fitted to the first and second nuts. One end of the x-axis lead screw is connected to an x-axis drive motor, and the other end is connected to a rear bearing and a locking nut. The x-axis drive motor is mounted on one side of the crossbeam.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, during product machining, the X-axis lead screw and the lifting lead screw drive the module to move left and right and up and down, respectively. Multiple machining axis assemblies are installed on the mounting plate, enabling simultaneous processing at six stations, resulting in high production efficiency. Conventional machine tools typically feature a rotary cutterhead, processing only one workpiece at a time. Setting up multiple machining axes significantly increases the complexity and load of the device, making the axial support structure prone to damage. This device, with its simple structure and ingenious design, features six machining axes arranged side-by-side and two support nuts for the X-axis lead screw, greatly increasing production efficiency and improving the device's stability and service life.
[0008] Furthermore, six machining axis assemblies are mounted on the other side of the mounting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, two dustproof tracks are installed on both sides of the transverse guide rail, and an outer dustproof cover is installed on the dustproof track.
[0010] Furthermore, an upper cover is installed at the top of the mounting plate, and a lower cover is installed at the bottom.
[0011] Furthermore, the machining axis assembly includes a lifting drive motor mounted on the upper end of the upper cover, and a lifting screw is mounted on the lifting drive motor. The lifting screw is fitted with a lifting bearing and a lifting bearing housing for supporting the lifting bearing. The lower sealing plate is equipped with two opposing Z-axis linear guides located on both sides of the lifting screw, and Z-axis sliders fixedly connected to the spindle mounting bracket are mounted on the Z-axis linear guides.
[0012] Furthermore, the spindle mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the Z-axis slider, and the spindle mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the upper baffle and the lower baffle. The lower baffle has a hollow through hole.
[0013] Furthermore, the machining shaft assembly passes through the hollow through-hole and is exposed below the spindle mounting bracket.
[0014] Furthermore, a probe mounting plate is provided in front of the spindle mounting bracket, and a probe assembly is mounted on the probe mounting plate.
[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0016] This invention, through the close cooperation of the tool magazine door assembly, tool magazine, and movable tool holder, can automatically transfer six tools at once without being disturbed by machining debris. It not only effectively solves the shortcomings of traditional manual operation but also ensures higher precision and consistency, and speeds up tool selection and changeover processes. Furthermore, in situations requiring frequent changes of multiple tools, tool disassembly and installation can be completed quickly without manual intervention, simplifying the process and reducing labor costs.
