What kind of tool is used for CNC lathe aluminum parts


Use a diamond cutter.


Diamond tools have the advantages of extremely high hardness and wear resistance, low friction coefficient, high elastic modulus, high thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion coefficient, and low affinity with non-ferrous metals. It can be used for precision machining of non-metallic hard and brittle materials such as graphite, high wear-resistant materials, composite materials, high silicon aluminum alloys and other tough non-ferrous metal materials.


The performance of PCD depends on the content of diamond grains and cobalt, and the tool life is 10 to 500 times that of cemented carbide (WC matrix) tools. It is mainly used for turning various non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, magnesium and its alloys, cemented carbide and fiber plasticized materials with strong wear resistance, metal matrix composite materials, wood and other non-metallic materials.


Extended information


1. Clean and lubricate each guide rail surface every day. Machine tools with automatic lubrication system should regularly check and clean the automatic lubrication system, check the oil quantity, add lubricating oil in time, and check whether the oil pump starts and stops regularly.


2. Check whether the automatic lubrication system of the spindle box works normally every day, and replace the lubricating oil of the spindle box regularly.


3. Pay attention to check whether the cooling fan in the electrical cabinet is working properly, whether the air duct filter is blocked, and clean the attached dust.


4. Pay attention to check the cooling system, check the liquid level, add oil or water in time, and replace and clean the oil and water when they are dirty.


5. Pay attention to check the spindle drive belt and adjust the tightness.


6. Pay attention to check the tightness of the guide rail inserts and adjust the clearance.
