Youdaoplaceholder0 I. Core influencing factors ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 processing materials ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Lightweight materials (such as aluminum alloy, copper) ‌ : The power demand is relatively low, and 4kW-5.5kW can meet the requirements of high-speed cutting.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Heavy materials (such as stainless steel, titanium alloy) ‌ : Higher power (7.5kW-12kW) is required to cope with high cutting force and avoid motor overload.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 cutting parameters ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Rough machining ‌ : High removal rate is pursued, and high power (such as above 10kW) is required to support large cutting depth and feed rate.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 finishing ‌ : emphasizes surface quality, reduces power demand (5.5kW-7.5kW), but requires stable spindle speed control.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 machine tool structure ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Inclined bed design ‌ : Model 46, featuring a high-rigidity bed and imported bearings. The 7.5kW spindle motor can achieve high-speed processing at 5000r/min, making it suitable for complex parts.
 
The structure of the ‌ tool placement machine ‌ : a 4kW main motor combined with a lightweight design, suitable for small-batch precision processing.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 II. Typical power Configuration cases ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 economy configuration (4kW-5.5kW) ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 applicable scenarios ‌ : small-batch precision processing, cutting of light materials.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 case ‌ : Model 46, main motor power 4kW, supports a speed range of 100-5000r/min, repeat positioning accuracy ±0.003mm, suitable for processing shaft parts.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 general configuration (7.5kW) ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 applicable scenarios ‌ : multi-material compatible processing, medium-batch production.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Case ‌ : Model 46, spindle motor 7.5kW, combined with BMT40 power tool turret, can achieve turning and milling compound processing, suitable for efficient production of disc-shaped parts.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 high-performance configuration (10kW-12kW) ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 applicable scenarios ‌ : cutting of heavy materials, high-efficiency batch production.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Case ‌ : Model 46, total power 12kW, maximum spindle speed 6000r/min, supports Φ45mm bar stock processing, suitable for batch production of automotive parts.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 III. Optimization suggestions ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Intelligent power distribution ‌
 
Monitor the cutting force and dynamically adjust the spindle power output to avoid energy waste. For instance, when processing aluminum alloy, the power is reduced to 4kW, and when processing stainless steel, it is increased to 10kW.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Recommended cutting parameters ‌
 
Based on the material database and processing experience, the power-speed-feed combination. For instance, when processing 45 steel, it is recommended to have a power of 7.5kW, a rotational speed of 400r/min, and a feed rate of 0.2mm/r to balance efficiency and tool life.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 predictive maintenance ‌
 
By analyzing the motor load curve through the power monitoring system, the risk of spindle bearing wear or motor overheating can be warned in advance, reducing unplanned downtime.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 IV. Selection Decision tree ‌
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 If the processed materials are mainly light, ‌ → give priority to the 4kW-5.5kW models, taking into account both cost and efficiency.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 If compatibility with multi-material processing is required ‌ → select the 7.5kW universal model to balance performance and flexibility.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 If processing heavy materials or high efficiency is required ‌ → Invest in 10kW-12kW high-performance models to ensure long-term competitiveness.
