CNC turning and milling machine tools have been popular in recent years. They integrate the functions of lathes and milling machines. One machine tool can meet the two functions of users. For users, they originally needed to buy two lathes, but now they only need to buy one, which reduces the cost by half. In addition, a turning and milling machine takes up less space and is more convenient to manage and maintain. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone. If there are turning and milling machines with Y-axis and turning and milling machines without Y-axis, the prices are different. So how much does a CNC turning and milling machine cost? CNC lathe manufacturers will take you to take a look:
The price of CNC turning and milling machine tools ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. Different functional fineness and brands determine the price. So what are the factors that determine the price of turning and milling machine tools?
- Mechanical configuration
The selection of equipment is of course a major factor affecting the price of turning and milling CNC lathes, such as the machine body, spindle, etc. There are 12-station turret tool holders, and there are also 6-station, 8-station, and 10-station turret tool holders. There are two forms of turret tool holder layout on the machine tool: one is a turret tool holder for processing disc parts, and its rotary axis is perpendicular to the spindle; the other is a turret tool holder for processing shaft and disc parts, and its rotary axis is parallel to the spindle. But you need to pay attention to the fact that you cannot use the configuration of the equipment as a reference for the quality of the milling compound CNC lathe. Good configuration does not mean good performance. Good equipment configuration is a sufficient condition, but a good control system is a necessary condition, which will be mentioned later. The focus of this paragraph is that the configuration of the milling compound CNC lathe affects the price of the milling compound CNC lathe to a large extent, but it is not the main factor that determines the performance of the equipment.
- CNC control system
Everyone knows that a CNC lathe is assembled and welded by various parts, so the quality of each part is very important, but more importantly, the CNC system of the equipment. If there is no accurate and stable control system to reasonably control the operating time and operating status of each part unit, then even the best parts will cause failures due to internal operation disorder, resulting in poor performance and short service life of the equipment. Therefore, when users ask about the price of CNC lathes, many manufacturers will replace the control system of the equipment with the control control provided by the control instrument. Foshan Microcontrol has 12 years of experience in independently developing CNC systems. Compared with many machine tool factories on the market that buy other people’s systems and do not understand the operation and technology of the system, we have professional technology and mechanical cooperation in the electrical part. The lathe is naturally more stable and has better performance, and the price is not expensive.
Therefore, when choosing a supplier of CNC lathes, it is necessary to comprehensively investigate the qualifications, technical level, and after-sales service of the production enterprise. If conditions permit, conduct on-site inspections, which is often called factory inspections by business personnel, to have an intuitive impression of the production environment and delivery capabilities of the enterprise.
- Try to choose a production-oriented enterprise
Compared to a trading company, this can reduce the intermediate links, that is, there is no middleman to make a profit, which is truly realized. Moreover, since production-oriented enterprises have been engaged in production for many years, they have accumulated technology and a group of skilled production employees, which can guarantee the production delivery date. Why should they guarantee the delivery date?
Because the turning and milling compound CNC lathe belongs to processing and production equipment, and it is a large and medium-sized equipment. Unlike fast-moving consumer goods, customers will generate income and realize profits after buying it. Only by quickly applying it to production, producing products, and increasing production capacity can its value be realized. If the delivery date is delayed, it will directly affect the production of the enterprise, resulting in the enterprise being unable to quickly put the turning and milling compound CNC lathe equipment into the processing and production process, thereby affecting the operating efficiency of the enterprise.
Tricks for inspecting the strength of production-oriented enterprises: comprehensive inspection from the establishment time, number of employees, turnover, enterprise floor area, production equipment, production capacity, holdings, technical research and development team, enterprise qualifications, etc. (various certificates)
- It is not good if the price is low
As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. There is no good product if it is cheap, and good products are not cheap. The price of the turning and milling compound CNC lathe depends on the processing range, size, processing accuracy, production efficiency and other factors, and the price of the non-standard customized CNC lathe of the standard CNC lathe. Secondly, product quality assurance, this is considered from the aspects of materials and core components. The industry is imported from foreign original factories, such as domestic sales, which are expensive, such as the controller chooses South Korea TEMI, Canada Kingray, ball screw China Taiwan HIWIN/PMI linear guide China Taiwan HIWIN/PMI, bearing Japan NSK, coupling Germany, etc.
The cost-effective turning and milling compound CNC machine tool has the following characteristics: high rigidity, bed tilted 30° or 45°, high-quality cast iron resin sand molding, compact rib plate structure, good rigidity and strong shock resistance. The large drag plate and tool holder are tilted, making the operation and chip removal of the machine tool very convenient, and it occupies a small area and has good pleasantness. It adopts an integral sleeve spindle, imported precision spindle bearings, and spindle servo motor drive to achieve high precision, high rigidity and speed stability. The heat sink type spindle box design is equipped with symmetrical reinforcement ribs, which can effectively reduce the temperature rise of the spindle, increase the stability of the spindle and the life of the bearing. The servo motor and the precision ball screw are directly connected through an elastic coupling, with good force and high positioning accuracy. It is equipped with a computer automatic lubrication system to force lubricate the linear guide and ball screw. The X-axis and Z-axis of the milling compound CNC machine tool adopt high-rigidity linear slide rails. The span between the rails is calculated to obtain the best span, low resistance, high rigidity, high precision, and the displacement speed can reach 28M/min, which improves work efficiency and shortens processing time.
Only when you have determined your own processing needs, you can contact the manufacturer to obtain the quotation and technical solution of the milling compound CNC lathe. Although the market price of the milling compound CNC lathe ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, it still depends on your needs
