Product features of gantry machining center

The gantry machining center is a large and efficient CNC machining equipment with the following characteristics:

Strong structural rigidity

The gantry machining center usually adopts a gantry structure, which is composed of large castings such as the bed, columns, and beams, and the overall structure is stable. This structural design can withstand large cutting forces and gravity, and is not easy to deform during the processing process, thus ensuring the processing accuracy and stability.

For example, when processing large molds or heavy machinery parts, the gantry machining center can rely on its rigid structure to stably perform cutting processing and reduce processing errors caused by vibration and deformation.

Large processing range

The gantry machining center has a large worktable area and can carry heavier workpieces. In addition, multiple spindle heads or tool systems can usually be installed on the beam to achieve multi-axis linkage processing.

It can perform a variety of processing operations such as milling, boring, drilling, and tapping on large workpieces, and complete complex surface processing, cavity processing, and various hole system processing. For example, large and complex parts such as structural parts of large aircraft and propellers of ships can be processed on the gantry machining center.

High precision

Equipped with high-precision CNC systems and measuring devices, it can accurately control the motion trajectory and processing parameters of the machine tool. At the same time, key components of the machine tool, such as guide rails and lead screws, use high-precision manufacturing processes and assembly technologies to ensure the positioning accuracy and repeat positioning accuracy of the machine tool.

For example, when processing precision molds, the gantry machining center can achieve micron-level processing accuracy, meeting the strict requirements of mold manufacturing for accuracy.

High degree of automation

The gantry machining center has automatic tool change systems, automatic worktable exchange systems and other automation devices, which can realize the automation of the machining process. The operator only needs to clamp the workpiece and input the machining program, and the machine tool can automatically complete the machining task according to the predetermined program, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency and consistency of machining quality.

In addition, some gantry machining centers also have online detection and automatic compensation functions, which can monitor errors in the machining process in real time and automatically compensate for them, further improving machining accuracy.

High production efficiency

The multi-axis linkage and high-speed cutting functions of the gantry machining center can complete the machining of multiple faces and multiple processes in one clamping, greatly shortening the machining time. At the same time, the machine tool's rapid feed and tool change speed are also fast, reducing auxiliary time and improving production efficiency. For example, when processing large box-type parts, traditional processing methods may require multiple clamping and use of multiple machine tools for processing, while the gantry machining center can complete most of the processing procedures on a single machine tool at one time, significantly improving production efficiency.
