How to set the knife for the wood cutting machine--the latest guide

CNC cutting machine can be divided into manual tool setting and active tool setting. The active tool setting machine is generally equipped with a tool magazine, and the straight-line ATC automatically changes the tool.

The active tool setting instrument is controlled by software, which actively adjusts the initial orientation of the tool and the orientation of the carved work piece. Manual tool setting requires the operator to manually adjust the orientation of the processed object with a tool setting block.

The tool setting instrument of the CNC cutting machine actively adjusts the initial orientation of the tool and the orientation of the carved object, but generally the worker performs manual tool setting, so there is no in-depth research on the high precision of the tool setting instrument. This technology only It can perform simple tool setting, but cannot perform high-precision tool setting.

Generally, the main shaft of the machine is fixed with a single head. If engraving, cutting, side surface drilling, etc. need to be completed at the same time during processing, then a multi-process CNC cutting machine is required, which is more cost-effective than an automatic tool-changing engraving machine. If you want to increase the efficiency of mass production, you generally use a multi-head CNC cutting machine. When the CNC cutting machine is processing different plates, attention should be paid to the selection of the strength of the knife and the power of the spindle.

When carving solid wood, you should pay attention to the thickness, softness and hardness of the solid wood. If it is harder, you should use a spindle with a higher power than 3kw, and if it is soft, you should use a spindle with a lower power. When carving ordinary wood, the knife should be deep, because The trough is deep; when processing plywood, the knife must be lowered slowly, and the knife should not be deep, because the plywood itself is relatively thin.

The above is the tool setting guide of CNC cutting machine. If you want to know about CNC router, welcome to consult Superstar CNC.
