What Is 3 Axis CNC Router?

3 axis CNC router is a type of basic CNC machine with X aixs, Y axis and Z axis, it will go along three different axis at the same time. X-axis will move from left to right, Y-axis will move from front to back, and Z-axis will move up and down. 3 axis CNC machines are used primarily for machining flat, 2D and 2.5D parts. 3 axis CNC router is also known as 3 axis CNC machine, 3 axis CNC cutter, 3 axis CNC router kit, 3 axis CNC carving machine. The functional software behind any CNC machine is its CAD/CAM software. CAD software allows users to create the designs they wish to engrave. After completing this design, the CAM software converts the design into toolpath code that the machine can understand. The computer then converts this code into a signal that controls the movement of the machine's drive system. The drive system includes a spindle, which is the part that saves the actual machine position. The spindle rotates 8,000 to 50,000 times per minute to cut the material. In short, users create designs and use software to make instructions for the machine.

Care and Maintenance for 4x4 CNC Router Table Kit

1. The continuous operation time is less than 10 hours per day to ensure the cleanliness of the cooling water and the normal operation of the water pump. Never cause water shortage in the water spindle motor. Replace the cooling water regularly to prevent excessive water temperature. If the working environment temperature is too low in winter, the water in the water tank can be replaced with antifreeze.

2. Every time the machine is used, pay attention to cleaning. Be sure to clean up the dust on the platform and transmission system, and lubricate the transmission system (X, Y, Z axis) regularly (weekly). (Note: The X, Y, Z three-axis polished rods are maintained with engine oil; the screw part is added with high-speed butter; if the working environment temperature is too low in winter, the screw and polished rods (square rail or round rail) should be washed and cleaned with gasoline first , And then add oil, otherwise it will cause excessive resistance in the transmission part of the machine and cause the machine to misalign.)

3. For maintenance and inspection of electrical appliances, the power supply must be cut off, and only after the monitor has no display and the main circuit power indicator light goes out.

When the CNC machine does not work normally, it may be due to a problem with its internal components or other reasons. The following is a general introduction to the frequently occurring problems.

1. One of the three axes cannot be moved. At this time, check whether the drive block corresponding to the corresponding axis is damaged. The inspection method can use the replacement method: unplug the aviation plug corresponding to the fixed shaft and plug it into the drive corresponding to the other active shaft.

2. If the immovable shaft moves normally after the exchange, it can indicate that the drive block corresponding to the shaft has been damaged and the drive block needs to be replaced. If the shaft does not move, it means that the cable or motor is faulty. Replace the cable or motor. None of the three axes can move. At this time, check whether the three-axis aviation plug has been connected to the control box and whether the power of the control box has been turned on. Whether the data line is well connected with the control box and the control card in the host computer. If the above is normal, please contact the factory.

3. The spindle cannot run normally, first check the error code displayed on the LED display of the inverter.

3 Axis VS 4 Axis VS 5 Axis

Three-axis CNC machining: generally refers to three axes that move linearly in different directions, such as up and down, front and back, left and right. Three-axis can only process one surface at a time, which is suitable for processing some disc parts.

Four-axis CNC machining: Add a rotation axis to the three axes, generally 360°rotation in the horizontal plane. But it cannot rotate at high speed. Suitable for processing some box parts.

Five-axis CNC machining: There is one more rotating axis above the four-axis, generally 360°rotation on the vertical surface. The five-axis can already be fully processed and can achieve one-time clamping, which can reduce clamping costs and reduce product scratches. It is suitable for processing some multi-station pores and planes, and parts with high machining accuracy requirements, especially parts with strict requirements on shape machining accuracy.

Although the advantages of five-axis compared with four-axis and three-axis are very prominent, not all products are suitable for five-axis processing, and those suitable for three-axis processing are not necessarily suitable for five-axis processing. If you use products that can be processed by three-axis The five-axis machining will not only increase the cost, but the effect is not necessarily good. Only by making reasonable arrangements and developing suitable machine tools for the product can the value of the machine itself be brought into play.
