The difference between vertical machining center and horizontal machining center
Vertical machining center refers to the spindle for vertical machining center, its structure form is fixed column, workbench rectangle, no rotation function, is suitable for processing plate, sets, plate, class parts, it generally has three linear motion axis, and can be installed on the workbench a rotary table along the horizontal axis, to process spiral parts.
Vertical machining center card is convenient, easy to operate, easy to observe the processing situation, debugging program is easy, widely used. However, due to the limitation of the height of the column and the knife changing device, it can not process too high parts, in the processing cavity or concave surface, the cutting chip is not easy to discharge, serious when the tool will be damaged, damage the processed surface, affecting the smooth processing.
Horizontal processing center refers to the spindle for horizontal processing center, usually with automatic degrees rotary workbench, it generally has 3~5 motion coordinates, common is the three linear motion coordinates and a rotary movement coordinates, workpiece after a card, except the installation surface and the remaining four surface processing, it is suitable for adding box body parts. Compared with vertical processing center, horizontal processing center is easy to discharge chips, which is beneficial to processing, but the structure is complex. The price is higher
