Key points of configuration
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 main shaft ‌ :
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Speed range ‌ : The spindle speed range of the economical tool placement machine is 50-3000r/min, and that of the medium and high-end models is 50-5000r/min or higher. The high-speed spindle is suitable for precision machining.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 power ‌ : The power of the economical spindle is 3-7.5kW, and that of the medium and high-end ones is 11-22kW. The high-power spindle can process hard materials.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 rigidity ‌ : The rigidity of the spindle affects the cutting stability. A high-rigidity spindle can reduce vibration and improve surface quality.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 lead screw ‌ :
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 type ‌ : Ball screw transmission efficiency is high (>90%), suitable for high-speed and high-precision processing; Trapezoidal lead screws have low efficiency (20-30%) and are suitable for low-speed and heavy-load processing.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 lead ‌ : A large lead (such as 10mm) is suitable for high-speed machining, while a small lead (such as 5mm) is suitable for precision machining.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Precision grade ‌ : Lead screws of P5 grade and above are used in high-precision CNC machine tools, while those of P7 and P10 grades are used in general machinery.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 guide rails ‌ :
 
Type ‌ : Rolling guides (linear guides) have a low coefficient of friction and a fast response speed, making them suitable for high-precision and high-speed processing. Sliding guide rails (hard rails) have good rigidity and strong load-bearing capacity, making them suitable for heavy cutting.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Precision grade ‌ : Guide rails of grade P and above are used in high-precision CNC machine tools, while those of grade H and below are used in woodworking machinery, industrial robots, etc.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Preloading grade ‌ : High preloading reduces backlash but increases friction torque. The selection should be based on processing requirements.
 
Configuration plan
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 economy configuration ‌ :
 
Spindle ‌ : rotational speed 50-3000r/min, power 3-7.5kW, suitable for processing small and soft parts.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 lead screw ‌ : trapezoidal lead screw, lead 5-10mm, precision P7-P10 grade, low cost, suitable for low-speed and heavy-load processing.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 guide rail ‌ : Sliding guide rail, with precision below H grade, good rigidity, suitable for heavy cutting.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 mid-to-high-end configuration ‌ :
 
Spindle ‌ : rotational speed 50-5000r/min or higher, power 11-22kW, suitable for processing large and hard parts.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 lead screw ‌ : Ball screw, lead 10-20mm, precision above P5 grade, high transmission efficiency, suitable for high-speed and high-precision processing.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 guide rail ‌ : Rolling guide rail, with precision above P grade, low friction coefficient, fast response speed, suitable for high-precision and high-speed processing.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 high-end custom configuration ‌ :
 
Spindle ‌ : high-speed electric spindle, with a rotational speed of over 10,000 r/min and a power of over 22kW, suitable for ultra-precision machining.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 lead screw ‌ : High-precision ball screw, adjustable lead, accuracy of P0-P1 grade, suitable for ultra-precision positioning.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 guide rails ‌ : hydrostatic guide rails with an extremely low coefficient of friction and ultra-high precision (UP), suitable for ultra-precision processing.
 
Maintenance suggestions
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Regular lubrication ‌ : Use the specified lithium-based grease, avoid mixed greases, and reduce wear.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Dust-proof measures ‌ : Install telescopic protective covers, regularly clean track debris to prevent guide rail wear.
 
Youdaoplaceholder0 Abnormal detection ‌ : Listen for abnormal sounds, monitor temperature rise (shut down for inspection if the temperature exceeds 60℃), and promptly identify faults.
