The structure of the gantry machining center was developed by a milling machine

The Longmen machining center series is widely used in the aviation, automotive, precision mold, and parts processing industries, providing reliable mechanical systems and various choices of easy-to-use software to achieve high-precision workpieces. The article will provide a detailed introduction to the knowledge points of gantry machining centers< Br/>


A machining center is a highly developed machine tool that can perform many precision CNC machining tasks. The machining center originally originated from machine tools used for milling in the mid-20th century. The development of this special type of machine tool is crucial in the industry< Br/>


The gantry machining center is not only used for the double column design of the machining center frame, but also for highly developed machine tools. It can handle many heavy precision machining tasks at once< Br/>


Gantry machining center



The gantry machining center is not only used for the double column design of the machining center frame, but also for highly developed machine tools. It can handle many heavy precision machining tasks at once. Initially, in the mid-20th century, gantry structures were developed by milling machines. Since then, the development of this special type of machine has made good progress in industry, especially in the aerospace field. Nowadays, CNC gantry machining centers have been widely used in various industries< Br/>


Longmen machining centers can be roughly divided into two categories: vertical and horizontal machining centers, and there are other categories in the inventory of machining centers. The vertical gantry machining center has a vertical structure, and the workpiece is processed through vertically moving cutting tools< Br/>


The spindle of the horizontal gantry machining center is horizontally placed and the gantry machining is carried out horizontally. When using vertical design, the weight of the workpiece will help to firmly position it on the fixture for heavier vertical cutting paths without worrying about path deviations. In addition, with the help of power turrets, the cycle time of CNC gantry machining centers is greatly reduced< Br/>


The milling process of the gantry machining center



Regarding the milling process of the gantry machining center, it is the process of using a rotating tool to remove material from one or more workpieces by moving the tool forward. This processing method can be carried out in different directions on CNC gantry machining centers. In addition to turning, milling on gantry machining centers also involves various operations, from individual small parts to heavy large-scale milling tasks. Similar to turning, milling is one of the commonly used machining methods and can achieve precise tolerances within a precise range of requirements< Br/>


In other words, the application and practicality of gantry machining centers stimulated the development of milling methods, which later became very popular in industries that require strict machining accuracy. Traditional lathes are relatively difficult to achieve the production and effective performance of workpieces with complex contours. With this expectation, the following concepts of development and machine centeredness have gradually emerged. Terminology; Machining Center; Can be used to describe
