This presentation gives an information about: CNC Machining centers covering syllabus of Unit-7, Sub: Computer Integrated Manufacturing (10ME61) for BE course.
5. Numerical Control is a system in which
actions are controlled by the direct insertion
of numerical data at some point. The
system must automatically interpret at least
some portion of the data

6. Data is sent to the machine tool by means of
punch cards or tapes. The reader at the
machine performs no calculations or
interpolations.

7. •A numerical control, or “NC”, system controls many machine
functions and movements which were traditionally performed by
skilled machinists.
•Numerical control developed out of the need to meet the
requirements of high production rates, uniformity and consistent
part quality.
•Programmed instructions are converted into output signals which
in turn control machine operations such as spindle speeds, tool
selection, tool movement, and cutting fluid flow.

8. • By integrating a computer processor, computer
numerical control, or “CNC” as it is now known, allows
part machining programs to be edited and stored in the
computer memory as well as permitting diagnostics and
quality control functions during the actual machining.
• All CNC machining begins with a part program, which
is a sequential instructions or coded commands that
direct the specific machine functions.
• The part program may be manually generated or,
more commonly, generated by computer aided part
programming systems.

9. • CNC : Computer and Numeric Control
• Conventionally, an operator decides and adjusts various
machines parameters like feed , depth of cut etc
depending on type of job , and controls the slide
movements by hand. In a CNC Machine functions and
slide movements are controlled by motors using
computer programs.

11. All computer controlled machines are able to accurately and repeatedly
control motion in various directions. Each of these directions of motion is
called an axis. Depending on the machine type there are commonly two to
five axes.
Additionally, a CNC axis may be either a linear axis in which movement is in
a straight line, or a rotary axis with motion following a circular path.

13. •Each axis consists of a mechanical component, such as a slide that moves, a
servo drive motor that powers the mechanical movement, and a ball screw to
transfer the power from the servo drive motor to the mechanical component.
• These components, along with the computer controls that govern them, are
referred to as an axis drive system.

14. • Using a vertical mill
machining center as an
example, there are typically
three linear axes of motion.
Each is given an alphabetic
designation or address. The
machine table motion side
to side is called the “X” axis.
Table movement in and out
is the “Y” axis, while head
movement up and down
the column is the “Z” axis.

15. If a rotary table is added to the machine table, then
the fourth axis is designated the “b” axis.

16. •The method of accurate work positioning in relation to the cutting tool is called
the “rectangular coordinate system.” On the vertical mill, the horizontal base line
is designated the “X” axis, while the vertical base line is designated the “Y” axis.
The “Z” axis is at a right angle, perpendicular to both the “X” and “Y” axes.
•Increments for all base lines are specified in linear measurements, for most
machines the smallest increment is one ten-thousandth of an inch (.0001). If the
machine is graduated in metric the smallest increment is usually one thousandth
of a millimeter (.001mm).
•The rectangular coordinate system allows the mathematical plotting of points in
space. These points or locations are called “coordinates.” The coordinates in turn
relate to the tool center and dictate the “tool path” through the work.

18. Advantages:
• High Repeatability and Precision e.g. Aircraft parts
• Volume of production is very high
• Complex contours/surfaces need to be machined. E.g. Turbines
• Flexibility in job change, automatic tool settings, less scrap
• More safe, higher productivity, better quality
• Less paper work, faster prototype production, reduction in lead times
Disadvantages:
• Costly setup, skilled operators
• Computers, programming knowledge required
• Maintenance is difficult

19. • Lathes for metal and plastics
– Used to produce 3D product shapes and moulds
for plastic products.
• Milling machine for mould making and surface
milling.
– Used to produce dies for
die cutting printed products.

20. • Automated version of a manual lathe.
• Programmed to change tools automatically.
• Used for turning and boring wood, metal and
plastic.

• Used for wood, metal and plastic.
• Used to make 3D prototypes, moulds, cutting
dies, printing plates and signs.

22. • Controlled by G and M codes.
• These are number values and co-ordinates.
• Each number or code is assigned to a
particular operation.
• Typed in manually to CAD by machine
operators.
• G&M codes are automatically generated by
the computer software.

23. • The tool or material moves.
• Tools can operate in 1-5 axes.
• Larger machines have a machine control unit
(MCU) which manages operations.
• Movement is controlled by a motors (actuators).
• Feedback is provided by sensors (transducers)
• Tool magazines are used to change tools
automatically.

24. • Most are made from
high speed steel (HSS),
tungsten carbide or ceramics.
• Tools are designed to direct waste away from
the material.
• Some tools need coolant such as oil to protect
the tool and work.

25. • Tool paths describes the route the cutting tool takes.
• Motion can be described as point to point, straight cutting or
contouring.
• Speeds are the rate at which the tool operates e.g. rpm.
• Feeds are the rate at which the cutting tool and work piece
move in relation to each other.
• Feeds and speeds are determined by cutting depth, material
and quality of finish needed. e.g. harder materials need
slower feeds and speeds.
• Rouging cuts remove larger amounts of material than finishing
cuts.
• Rapid traversing allows the tool or work piece to move rapidly
when no machining is taking place.
