Four-axis wire cutting is a highly efficient and accurate cutting method that utilizes the linked motion of four axes to cut a workpiece. This cutting method is widely used in metal processing, machinery manufacturing, aerospace, and other fields, and can meet the needs of cutting complex shapes.
I. Processing Principle Processing Principle
The main principle of 4-axis wire cutting is to control the movement of the four axes to keep the cutting line at a certain angle to the surface of the workpiece, thus realizing the cutting of the workpiece. The four axes are X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis, and U-axis, and their movements are as follows.
1. X-axis: controls the movement of the cutting line in the horizontal direction. By controlling the movement of the X-axis, the translation of the cutting line on the surface of the workpiece can be achieved.
2. Y-axis: Controls the movement of the cutting line in the vertical direction. By controlling the movement of the Y-axis, it can realize the up and down movement of the cutting line on the surface of the workpiece.
3. Z-axis: control the cutting line in the vertical direction. The angle of inclination of the cutting line in the vertical direction. By controlling the movement of the Z-axis, the tilt of the cutting line on the surface of the workpiece can be achieved.
4. U-axis: Controls the tilt angle of the cutting line in the horizontal direction. By controlling the movement of the U-axis, the tilt of the cutting line on the surface of the workpiece can be realized.
Second, the advantages of four-axis linkage wire-cutting
The advantage of four-axis linkage wire cutting is that it can realize the cutting of complex shapes and improve the precision and efficiency of cutting. At the same time, because the angle between the aluminum wire and the surface of the workpiece can be adjusted, it can reduce the resistance during cutting and prolong the service life of the cutting tool.
Application fields
The application scope of 4-axis linkage wire cutting is wide. In the field of metal processing, it can be used to cut all kinds of metal materials, such as steel, aluminum alloy, and so on. In the field of machinery manufacturing, it can be used to manufacture various complex shapes of parts. In the aerospace field, it can be used to manufacture aircraft, rockets, and other aircraft parts.
In short, four-axis linkage wire cutting is an efficient and accurate cutting method, widely used in metal processing, machinery manufacturing, aerospace, and other fields. It achieves the cutting of workpieces by controlling the linkage motion of four axes and can meet the cutting needs of complex shapes. However, it faces a number of challenges and limitations that require accurate control systems and safety measures.
