A special numerical-control
grinding and milling
machine for cams with arc-shaped surfaces comprises a
machine body, a crossbeam is arranged on the
machine body along an X-direction, an X-direction
slide plate is disposed at the front end of the crossbeam, a workpiece spindle box and a
tailstock are oppositely arranged on the X-direction
slide plate along the X-direction, a workpiece spindle is arranged in the workpiece spindle box, a Y-direction
slide plate is disposed on one side, which is positioned on the X-direction slide plate, of the machine body along a Y-direction, a rotating table is arranged on the Y-direction slide plate, a cutter spindle box is arranged on the rotating table, and a cutter spindle is disposed in the cutter spindle box. When the special numerical-control
grinding and milling machine is used, a
grinding wheel or
milling cutter mounted on the cutter spindle can rotate around the axis of the cutter spindle and simultaneously can swing around the central axis of the rotating table in a reciprocating manner along with rotation of the rotating table. Accordingly, the
grinding wheel or
milling cutter is equivalently used as a roller of a driven plate of a
cam shaft with an arc-shaped surface. Simultaneously, the workpiece (the
cam with the arc-shaped surface) is driven by the workpiece spindle to rotate in the process, and an inner groove of the
cam with the arc-shaped surface can be continuously ground and milled only by means of rotation of the workpiece spindle and rotation of the rotating table during
processing.
