CNC vertical lathe is a widely used CNC machining equipment. It has many excellent features and advantages and can meet the needs of various industrial production. However, when using a CNC vertical lathe, correct tool setting is very critical to ensure processing quality. Below we will introduce to you how to perform tool setting operations on CNC vertical lathes.

First, prepare the cutting tools and workpieces that need to be machined, then check the lathe chuck and tighten it. Then you can adjust the tangent distance between the end of the turning tool and the workpiece. This distance is very critical and must be adjusted accurately to allow the turning tool to make correct contact with the workpiece. We can use professional balancing poles to assist in this operation. When the pointer on the balance bar moves to the middle position, it means that the end of the turning tool and the workpiece are tangent.

Then, we need to determine the relative position of the turning tool and the workpiece. We can follow the operating instructions of the CNC vertical lathe and use its own software to adjust the positional relationship between the workpiece and the turning tool. Then, run the CNC program and slowly move the turning tool toward the workpiece before machining until the turning tool contacts the starting point of the workpiece. At this time, the edge of the turning tool should exactly coincide with the surface of the workpiece.

Finally, we can use digital display meters or calipers to detect the size of the workpiece after processing to ensure that it meets our requirements. If adjustments are needed, we can use the adjustment function of the CNC vertical lathe to make fine adjustments according to specific needs.

In short, when using a CNC vertical lathe for tool setting operations, you need to pay attention to details, especially adjusting the tangent distance between the end of the turning tool and the workpiece, ensuring that the relative position of the turning tool and the workpiece is correct, and using a digital display instrument to detect the processing. size of. Only in this way can we ensure that our processing quality and efficiency are optimized to meet the various needs of our customers.
