Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of machining, and more specifically to a rotary arm horizontal machining tool. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, the swing arm is a key component of the variable gauge axle box device. These components are mostly complex in shape, heavy, require high precision, and have stringent quality standards. The high demands on material properties further exacerbate the need for structural precision, thus requiring high geometric accuracy for each individual component. Because it uses low-temperature resistant ductile iron material QT400-18, it is highly susceptible to deformation under cutting and clamping forces during machining. Therefore, the tooling design during machining is crucial for ensuring dimensional accuracy and eliminating the impact of deformation on the workpiece's geometry, and it is also one of the challenges in tooling design.

[0003] To improve production efficiency, reduce product costs, and ensure product dimensional accuracy, the design of the rotary arm uses the previous machining surface as the machining datum for this sequence, determining the horizontal and angular dimensions. Traditional machining processes, which initially determine the datum for each individual piece, suffer from varying spatial dimensional coordinates due to different product placement positions each time production begins. This method demands high operator skill, and uncertainties such as alignment accuracy and clamping force pose significant risks to workpiece quality stability, resulting in a high defect rate and low processing efficiency.
