What is a CNC center?

       CNC machining center is a kind of CNC machining machine with complete functions. The machining center is equipped with a tool magazine, which stores different numbers of various tools or inspection tools, and programs are automatically selected and replaced during the machining process. This is the main difference between it and CNC milling machine and CNC boring machine. Especially for workpieces that must use tooling and turning equipment to ensure product quality and efficiency. This will save a lot of time and cost for the development and upgrading of new products, so that the company has a strong competitiveness.

      The CNC machining center is currently one of the most widely used CNC machine tools in the world. Its comprehensive processing ability is relatively strong. After the workpiece is clamped, it can complete more processing content. The processing accuracy is high. It is 5-10 times that of ordinary equipment, especially when it is difficult to process batch workpieces. Many processings that cannot be completed by ordinary equipment are more suitable for single-piece processing with more complex shapes and higher precision requirements or for small and medium batch production of multiple varieties. It concentrates the functions of milling, boring and milling, drilling and milling, thread tapping and thread cutting on one device, so that it has a variety of technological means. According to the spatial position of the spindle processing, the machining center is classified into: horizontal and vertical machining center. Classified according to process use: boring and milling machining center, compound machining center. According to the special classification of functions, there are: single workbench, double workbench and multi-workbench machining center. Machining centers with single axis, dual axis, three axis and interchangeable headstock, etc.

     The CNC machining center is developed from the CNC milling machine. The biggest difference from the CNC milling machine is that the machining center has the ability to automatically exchange processing tools. By installing tools for different purposes on the tool magazine, it can be automatically changed in one clamping. The device changes the processing tool on the spindle to realize multiple processing functions.
