Some users think that it can replace other processing machine tools after purchasing a machining center. They think that since it is a machining center, it can perform various processing. They don’t know that the processing of parts by a machining center not only has the functions required by the machine tool, but also requires tools, The fit of the fixture can only be completed. It is hoped that the advantages of each machining center can be concentrated on a selected machine tool. In addition, they believe that the machining center can process various materials, not only heavy-duty processing but also fine processing, not only parts processing but also various mold processing. As far as the current domestic manufacturers can say, there are almost no such machine tools that can complete the above work.

        A correct and comprehensive understanding of machining centers is the basis for type selection and ordering. It is necessary to have a comprehensive and detailed understanding and mastery of the performance, characteristics, types, main parameters, functions, scope of application, and deficiencies of machining centers. Consider the processing technology, the best processing object of the equipment, the range and price, etc., and choose according to the selected parts.

       For the processing of workpieces with more than two sides or the processing of holes and surfaces radially arranged around them, such as various boxes, a horizontal machining center should be selected; for workpieces processed on one side, such as various plate parts, etc., It is advisable to choose a vertical machining center; when processing complex surfaces, such as wind deflectors, integral impellers on the engine, etc., a five-axis machining center can be selected; the position accuracy of the workpiece is required to be high, and a horizontal machining center is used. When multi-face machining needs to be completed in one clamping, a five-face machining center can be selected; when the workpiece size is large, such as machine bed, column, etc., a gantry type machining center can be selected.

       Of course, the above points are not absolute, especially since CNC machine tools are developing in the direction of compounding, the final decision must be made under the condition of process requirements and capital balance.
