In the realm of graphite material processing, the brittleness of graphite has long been a significant challenge for manufacturers. However, Ningbo Kaibo CNC Machinery Co., Ltd. has introduced a game - changing solution: the high - rigidity multi - axis联动 CNC milling machine GJ1417. This article will delve deep into the application of this machine in graphite material processing, offering both technical insights and practical operation guidance.

High - Rigidity Structure: Reducing Vibration and Enhancing Stability

The high - rigidity body structure of the GJ1417 is one of its key features. In graphite processing, vibration can lead to poor surface finish, reduced machining accuracy, and increased tool wear. The GJ1417's high - rigidity structure effectively reduces vibration during the cutting process. For example, in a graphite mold processing project, the traditional milling machine had a vibration amplitude of about 0.05mm, which often led to surface roughness of Ra 3.2μm. In contrast, the GJ1417 reduced the vibration amplitude to less than 0.01mm, resulting in a surface roughness of Ra 1.6μm, significantly improving the surface quality of the graphite workpiece.

Multi - Axis联动 Technology: Advantages in Complex Surface Processing

Multi - axis联动 technology is another highlight of the GJ1417. Graphite products often have complex surfaces and tiny details, such as the electrodes used in EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining). The multi - axis联动 function of the GJ1417 allows it to process these complex geometries with high precision. Compared with traditional single - axis or two - axis machines, the GJ1417 can achieve a machining accuracy of ±0.005mm in complex surface processing, while traditional machines can only reach ±0.02mm. This improvement in accuracy is crucial for industries that require high - precision graphite components, such as the semiconductor and aerospace industries.

Practical Operation Skills: Solving Industry Pain Points

In graphite processing, issues like brittleness and tool wear are common pain points. To address these problems, proper configuration of spindle speed, feed rate, and tool path optimization are essential. For example, in a graphite electrode processing project, by adjusting the spindle speed from 6000 rpm to 8000 rpm and the feed rate from 1000 mm/min to 1200 mm/min, combined with tool path optimization, the tool wear rate was reduced by 30%, and the occurrence of edge chipping and burrs was significantly decreased.

Parameter Original Setting Optimized Setting
Spindle Speed (rpm) 6000 8000
Feed Rate (mm/min) 1000 1200

Case Analysis: From Experience - Driven to Data - Driven Processing

Let's take a graphite manufacturing company as an example. Before using the GJ1417, the company relied on the experience of its workers for graphite processing, resulting in inconsistent product quality and low production efficiency. After adopting the GJ1417 and following the data - driven processing methods recommended in this article, the production efficiency increased by 40%, and the product qualification rate increased from 80% to 95%. This shows the great potential of data - driven processing in the graphite manufacturing industry.
