Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of auxiliary equipment for CNC lathe machining, and more specifically, it relates to a chip collection mechanism for a slant-back CNC lathe. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the field of CNC lathe machining, with the continuous development of the manufacturing industry, the requirements for machining efficiency and quality are increasing. Slant-back CNC lathes, due to their compact structure and high rigidity, have been widely used in the machining industry. However, existing slant-back CNC lathes still have some problems in the machining process that urgently need to be solved.
[0003] First, there are shortcomings in the flexibility of tool usage. Traditional CNC lathe tool post can often only install a limited number of tool heads, and the selection of tool heads is not convenient or efficient enough, making it difficult to quickly adapt to the tool requirements of different machining processes. This, to some extent, limits machining efficiency and accuracy.
[0004] Secondly, the handling of metal filings generated during processing is a significant issue. If metal filings are not collected and cleaned up promptly and effectively, they not only affect the cleanliness of the processing environment but may also become entangled in the workpiece or cutting tool, leading to decreased machining accuracy and even damage to the tool and workpiece. Most existing chip removal mechanisms have simple structures and cannot achieve centralized and efficient collection of metal filings.
[0005] Furthermore, there are deficiencies in the supply and management of cutting fluid. Cutting fluid plays an important role in the machining process, such as cooling, lubrication, and chip removal. However, the current cutting fluid addition methods on many CNC lathes are not intelligent enough, requiring frequent manual operation. This makes it difficult to ensure the timeliness and stability of the cutting fluid supply, and it cannot be effectively filtered and recycled. This not only wastes resources but also pollutes the environment.
[0006] In summary, existing slant-back CNC lathes have many shortcomings in terms of tool flexibility, chip collection and handling, cutting fluid supply management, and material blocking operation. There is an urgent need for a new type of machining chip collection mechanism to solve these problems and improve the overall performance and machining efficiency of slant-back CNC lathes.
