Introduction to the importance of trace lubricants

In the application of micro-lubrication system, the generation of oil mist is very critical. There are many factors that affect the effect of MQL micro-lubrication.

At present, most users do not have a clear understanding of the characteristics of oils used under micro-lubrication conditions. They think that as long as the oil can be used in micro-lubrication processing, this is a wrong understanding. It is very important to correctly select micro-lubricating products.

First of all, mineral oil cannot be used in micro-lubrication processing, mainly because the oil mist particles produced by mineral oil are harmful to the human body, and the particle size generated by mineral oil atomization is large, the lubrication effect is not good, and mineral oil is not suitable for high-speed processing Lubrication in the state.

When the micro-lubrication system is used in cutting, the oil is very important. First of all, the oil must be environmentally friendly and should not cause harm to the health of the operators. At present, foreign countries have clear requirements for the oil used in the metal cutting processing field, and the use of MQL technology in the domestic machining field is still in its infancy. Because the micro-lubricating oil is atomized into 0.5-10 micron oil suspended particles, When selecting trace lubricants, the health and environmental protection characteristics of the oil should be considered first.

On the premise of ensuring that the oil is harmless to human health, it is necessary to consider the lubrication and atomization characteristics of the oil in the cutting process. The first thing to consider is that the oil should have a low viscosity. Only low-viscosity lubricants can be used without heating. It is atomized into ultra-fine suspended particles in the micron range, and can realize long-distance transportation without being affected by the high speed of the machine tool. There are many disadvantages of using mineral oil. Firstly, it is difficult to atomize without heating. Even if heated, the atomization effect of ultra-fine particles cannot be achieved. After the atomization of mineral oil, it is not easy to transport long-distance in the small channel, and it is easy to form oil. Droplets, especially affect the transportation in the main shaft, and easily cause oil accumulation in the pipeline, and the terminal lubrication effect is poor. The reason is that the oil mist that forms large particles is affected by the centrifugal force of the machine tool spindle. Compared with cutting fluid, the consumption of lubricating oil is greatly reduced in cutting under the condition of micro-lubrication, and the consumption per hour is below 50ml/h, which is much lower than the consumption of the traditional heating oil mist lubrication system.

Advantages of five-axis machining of aluminum alloy parts

Aluminum alloy is a very good material for parts. Its low density can achieve lightweight parts and its strength is very high even comparable to steel. In addition, its corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity are very good. But there is a major defect that precision machining is very difficult, but the emergence of five-axis machining technology has solved this problem well. Today, let’s take a look at the advantages of five-axis machining of this aluminum alloy part. 1. Reduce processing time Table of Contents 1. Reduce processing time 2. Improve processing accuracy 3. High production efficiency In the processing, the flat-bottomed end mill is used to maintain the vertical surface of the complex mold processing surface, which can greatly reduce the processing time. It is also suitable for side milling with angled surfaces, which can eliminate the rib-like shape caused by the spherical end mill processing. The texture...

Elimination of Gear Backlash in CNC Machining Feed System

Elimination of Gear Backlash in CNC Machining Feed System   The transmission gear in the feed system of the CNC machining machine tool must eliminate the transmission gap between the meshing gears as much as possible, otherwise the motion will lag behind the command signal after each reversal of the feed system, which will affect the machining accuracy (accuracy) ). There are the following two common methods for CNC machining machine tools to eliminate the transmission gear gap.   1. Rigidity adjustment method   The rigid adjustment method is an adjustment method that cannot be automatically compensated for the tooth side clearance after adjustment. Therefore, the pitch tolerance and tooth thickness of the gear must be strictly controlled, otherwise the flexibility of the transmission will be affected. This adjustment method has a relatively simple structure and a better transmission rigidity.   (1) Eccentric shaft adjustment method   As shown in Figure 610, the...
