In addition, the most popular 3D CNC machines in 2023 with all the necessary details are listed below this guide.

Here we go:

Definition

3D CNC router is an automated machine tool that integrates computer technology and machining technology to cut out three-dimensional shapes and contours using various materials such as wood, foam, metal, PVC, plastic, silica gel, fiberglass, carbon fiber and its composite materials, oil mud, and substitute wood. The so-called three-dimensional, according to popular theory, is just three artificially interlaced (vertical is a very characteristic understanding) direction, using this three-dimensional coordinates, it seems that the position of any point in the entire world can be determined. Three-dimensional is the three axes of the coordinate axis, that is, X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis, where X represents the left and right space, Y represents the up and down space, and Z represents the front and rear space, thus forming the human's visual three-dimensional sense.

Types

The 4th axis CNC machine has only three feed axes (X, Y, Z). The Y-axis can be manually replaced by a rotation axis. At most, only three axes can be linked. From the perspective of use, it can mill and cut planes, reliefs, and cylinders.

The 4-axis CNC machine has four feed axes (X, Y, Z, A), and can only perform three-axis linkage processing. It can mill and cut planes, reliefs, cylinders, and irregular 3D shapes.

The 4-axis linkage automatic machine tool has four feed axes (X, Y, Z, A), which can be processed by four-axis linkage, and mill and cut planes, reliefs, cylinders, irregular three-dimensional shapes, corner supplement processing of 3D models.

5-axis CNC machine is a multi-axis 3D CNC machining center, usually five-axis linkage refers to the linear interpolation movement of any 5 coordinates in X, Y, Z, A, B, and C.

In other words, five axes refer to the three moving axes of X, Y, and Z plus any two rotating axes. Compared with the common three-axis (X, Y, Z three degrees of freedom) machining, five-axis machining means that when machining parts with complex geometry, the machining tool needs to be able to be positioned and connected in five degrees of freedom. Five-axis machining has the advantages of high machining accuracy and is specially used for machining complex curved surface parts.

Applications

3D CNC machine is used for stereo 3D machining technology, furniture stereo feet and cylinder, human body, buddha, goddess of mercy, sculptures, handicrafts, stair handrail, musical instruments. It can handle 3D carving and cutting on wood, stone, foam and soft metals, achieve dimension 3D machining. Huge range of 3D machining enables this machine tool to satisfy the requirements for arts, crafts, gifts, and furnitures manufacturing.

Working Principle

1. 360 degree 3D CNC machining expands the applications of 3D CNC machine and satisfies the demands in furnitures and crafts making industry.

Care & Maintenance

Computer Routine Maintenance

Most 3D CNC machines are operated by computers, and once the computer fails, the whole machine cannot be used, so it is also very important to maintain the computer well. Computer maintenance pay attention to the following aspects.

1. Regularly clean the dust of the chassis, use an air spray gun and a small brush to clean it regularly, and be careful that too much dust will cause the industrial control to get stuck. Pay attention to the heat dissipation device of the chassis, especially in summer, be careful that the temperature of the control line is too high to burn out the circuit board and other equipment.

2. Regularly clean up computer garbage, defragment disks, optimize the computer system, and maintain the stability of the computer system.

3. It is necessary to regularly check and kill the virus on the system, but remember not to open the anti-virus program when working, because it is easy to be disturbed when working in this way.

Precautions:

3.1. Anti-virus software cannot be turned on during work, be careful of interference.

3.2. It is better to use an anti-virus software for the computer. Do not install multiple antivirus software on the computer. It is easy for the computer system to be incompatible and cause the system to crash.

Routine Maintenance of Parts

1. After the machine work is completed, be sure to clean up the dust on the table and exposed electrical accessories, including the guide rails and sliders of the machine, including the screw and spindle motor of the machine. Including the industrial control box of the machine, especially a little dust in the industrial control box will cause problems with the operation of the circuit board, and it is easy to have breakpoints and run around.

2. After each use of the machine, pay attention to cleaning. Be sure to clean up the dust on the platform and transmission system, so as to ensure good heat dissipation and prevent abnormal errors of the industrial control card. Regularly clean up some material chips in the guide rails, which can prevent the debris from interfering and causing the machine to jam.

3. Regularly (weekly) lubricate the transmission system (X, Y, Z three-axis). (Note: X, Y, and Z three-axis polished rods are maintained with engine oil. High-speed butter is added to the screw rod. If the working environment temperature is too low in winter, the screw rod and polished rod (square guide rail or circular guide rail) should be washed and cleaned with gasoline first. , and then add engine oil, otherwise it will cause too much resistance in the transmission part of the machine and cause machine misalignment.)

4. When the machine is not in use, it is best to pour out the water in the water tank when the room temperature is relatively low to prevent frost cracking. Temperature does not have a great impact on the machine, but because many customers add butter to the screw, and forget to clean it in winter, it will not work every time it is turned on, and the temperature in some studios is very low. Although oil is added, it is still frozen , the machine does not work.

5. The continuous running time is less than 10 hours a day to ensure the cleanness of the cooling water and the normal operation of the water pump. The water spindle motor must not be short of water, and the cooling water should be replaced regularly to prevent the water temperature from being too high. If the working environment temperature is too low in winter, the water in the water tank can be replaced with antifreeze.

Note: Before maintaining the machine, be sure to turn off all the power, check whether the power is still on, and proceed to the next maintenance after confirming that there are no potential safety hazards.
