- Size Consideration: When selecting a CNC drilling and milling machine, it’s important to consider the maximum machining size based on specific needs. Most machine tools on the market can meet requirements, except for some single or double-axis machines meant for sample testing.
- Operating and Control Systems: Many modern machine tools use the Windows operating system, user-friendly and some offer a Chinese interface for easier operation and learning. The operating system provides stability, reliability, and convenient management. However, it’s notable that the operation interface is primarily in English and may impact operational speed. From a process and maintenance perspective, systems with Chinese interfaces are may be recommended.
- Tool Management: Unlike in the past where machines had limited tool holding capacity, modern CNC machines can hold hundreds of drills. Some also feature automatic detection and diameter detection. Careful consideration should be given to the placement of drill bits, as poor design can lead to damage in case of workpiece slippage. Opt for designs that offer better protection, such as those seen in Swiss-made machines.
- Optical Ruler System: Most CNC machine tools rely on optical rulers or magnetic rulers for precision measurement. Optical rulers boast high stability and resolution due to their non-contact reading head and extended lifespan, provided they are kept clean to minimize dust accumulation.
- Vacuum System: For companies without a central vacuum system, using an industrial vacuum cleaner is crucial. Ensure the vacuum cleaner has ample power, 30-50% higher than the original design requirement to account for power loss due to filter blockage. Additionally, the vacuum bag should have sufficient capacity to minimize work interruption and maintain production efficiency.
- Protection System: When considering equipment protection, the emphasis should be placed on software and equipment-based safety measures to prevent accidents and injury. These systems should strike a balance between effective protection and practical maintenance. European-made machines are recommended for their quality and relatively lower maintenance costs over time, despite being pricier than Japanese-made machines.
