In the machining workshop, these painted manhole cover plates are waiting to be machined. Two Production Sequences Post-Casting: Upon completing the rough casting of the parts, the foundry supplier follows two distinct production sequences: 1,Machining - Paint - Assembly - Packaging: This sequence begins with precision machining, followed by a touch-up paint for protection, assembly, and finally packaging. 2,Repaint - Machining - Assembly - Packaging: In this alternative sequence, the supplier first apply a new coat of paint before proceeding with machining, assembly, and packaging. Do you know the difference between these two production flows? Why would a foundry choose different processes for different manhole covers?

As laser cutting technology continues to trend in the metal fabrication industry, offering precision and versatility, let's not overlook the enduring benefits of the traditional turret punch press. Here's why: 1.Cost-Efficiency in Fastening: While laser cutters excel in cutting, the punch press simplifies the fastening process by integrating tapping during blanking—saving steps and costs associated with weld nuts. 2.Material Versatility: Though laser technology is known for its cutting precision, the punch press allows for the use of lighter, more affordable materials without compromising strength, thanks to its unique roller tool capabilities. 3.Streamlining Production: The precision tooling of punch presses eliminates the need for some secondary forming operations, offering a significant boost in productivity compared to processes that rely solely on laser cutting. 4.Welding Advantages: Unlike laser cutting, punch presses can create strategic slots to enhance weld strength and simplify assembly, showcasing an advantage in fabricating complex components. 5.Precision with Reduced Rework: The punch press stands out for its ability to minimize errors and rework, providing a level of reliability that complements the precision of laser cutters. In a landscape dominated by laser cutters, the punch press remains a testament to the power of combining traditional techniques with new technology. By leveraging the unique strengths of both, we can achieve unparalleled efficiency and innovation in metal fabrication. #MetalFabrication #LaserCutting #PunchPress #Innovation #Efficiency #CNC

### Types of Machining: 1. **Milling**: Uses rotary cutters to remove material from a workpiece, creating complex shapes and features. 2. **Drilling**: Employs a rotating drill bit to create cylindrical holes. 3. **Grinding**: Utilizes an abrasive wheel to achieve a smooth finish or precise dimensions. 4. **Boring**: Enlarges and refines holes made by drilling. 5. **Sawing**: Uses a toothed blade to cut material into smaller sections. ### Types of Turning: 1. **Straight Turning**: Feeds a cutting tool along the length of the rotating workpiece to form a cylinder. 2. **Taper Turning**: Moves the cutting tool at an angle to produce a conical shape. 3. **Facing**: Cuts the end surface of the workpiece to make it flat. 4. **Parting**: Separates the workpiece into two pieces using a cutting tool. 5. **Grooving**: Creates narrow cavities on the workpiece's surface. 6. **Threading**: Forms helical grooves (threads) for screws and bolts.

Project Manager at Great Light--Rapid Prototyping/ CNC Machining/ Sheet Metal Fabrication/ 3D Priting
Basic process of CNC parts machining: 1、Prior Machining of the Base Surface: Before machining the parts, it is necessary to first machine the base surface. The base surface serves as a reference for positioning and should be machined to ensure its flatness and perpendicularity, enabling subsequent machining operations to be performed correctly. 2、Distinguishing Different Processing Stages: CNC parts machining is typically divided into three stages: rough machining, semi-finishing, and finishing. 3、Face Machining Before Hole Machining: Generally, the processing sequence for parts is to machine the flat surfaces first and then proceed to hole machining. By machining the flat surfaces first, the accuracy and flatness of the positioning reference are ensured, and subsequent hole machining will reference this base for positioning and machining. 4、Surface Finishing: After the completion of part machining, surface finishing may be necessary to achieve the desired surface quality. Surface finishing methods may include grinding, polishing, and rolling. #prototype #prototyping #mold #rapidprototype #plastic #rawmaterials #productionrequirements #CNCMachining #smallbatchproduction #vacuumcasting #overmoulding #rapidmould #masproduction #SLAlasermachine #3Dstructure #manualprocessing #polish #highpolishing #bakepaintbaking #varnish #coated #mould #mold #tooling #siliconerubbermold #CNCmachiningcentral

The Essential Steps in CNC Parts Processing .. 1) Base Surface Machining :- Start by machining the base surface. This step is crucial as it sets the reference for positioning, ensuring that the surface is flat and perpendicular. A well-machined base surface guarantees the accuracy of subsequent operations. 2. Processing Stages :- CNC parts machining typically involves three key stages: rough machining, semi-finishing, and finishing. Each stage refines the part to achieve the desired precision and quality. 3. Sequence Matters :- Begin with face machining before proceeding to hole machining. Machining flat surfaces first ensures the accuracy of the positioning reference, which is essential for precise hole placement and overall part integrity. 4. Surface Finishing:- Once machining is complete, surface finishing is often necessary to achieve the desired quality. This can include grinding, polishing, or rolling to enhance the part's appearance and functionality.

The factors that should be considered in the workpiece fixture design for CNC machining Thin-walled parts : - Support and Clamping: The workpiece fixture should provide adequate support to prevent deflection or deformation of the thin-walled part during CNC machining. Clamping forces should be distributed evenly and carefully to avoid distortion or crushing of the machined part. #CNCMachining #Fixture #GradualCutting

In rough machining, one key aspect to pay attention to is tool inspection, especially when working with harder materials like stainless steel. Tool wear can occur quickly, and failing to replace worn tools in a timely manner can impact the flatness and parallelism of the products. #cncmachining #cnclathe #cncmill #cnctool #cncmilling #cnc

What Are Machined Parts? "Machined parts are components that are crafted using the machining process. But what exactly is machining? Machining involves the use of subtractive cutting machines such as mills, lathes, and grinders to create a desired part. Although these machines employ different techniques, the goal is ultimately the same – to remove material from a workpiece and create the desired shapes." After the CNC machining process, we may treat machine part surfaces to enhance their appearance and texture. The surface finish plays a functional and cosmetic role
