Machining centers are usually divided into 450, 650, 850, 1050, and 1150 according to the size of the worktable...... And so on.

These what 450, 650 units are centimeters.

It doesn't sound like much, after all, even the 1050 is only 1 meter long, and the 1880 is less than two meters, but that's just the size of the workbench.

A machining center is not only a workbench, in fact, as long as the model of the machining center is over 850, both the volume and the area is quite large.

Let's put it this way, put the 650 and 1050 machines together. If the volume of the former is like a sweaty BMW, then the latter is an African elephant, and as for the number of cars used by Gu Fei in front, it is almost a foal.

If you don't know how big they are, let's put it another way.

Some operators are lazy, and their hearts are extremely strong. Sometimes they are sleepy during the night shift, and they often open the machining center of the 1050 or even 850 table, and run in to clean the workbench casually, which is a cool, spacious and hidden bed.

They lay down on the top and closed the door of the barn, and the one who slept comfortably was called comfortable.

The bed is a good bed, but remember to warn accordingly or get up in time. Otherwise, an enthusiastic employee suddenly came outside, and when he pressed the start button, the high-speed rotating knife was quickly lowered......

This kind of thing happens almost every year in the manufacturing industry.

Don't doubt the sharpness of the cutters, no one is afraid of them except for the drill or the saw blade when stationary. However, once turned at high speed, it is not a scalpel, but it is easy to shred a human body.

When he was idle, Gu Fei began to ponder the machining center.

Compared with the number of cars, the role of the machining center is much more powerful. This is due not only to the number of axes, but also to the clamping method.

The workpieces of several carts are mounted on the spindle and can usually only be machined one product at a time. The workpiece of the machining center is mounted on the workbench, and theoretically the machine can process together no matter how many workpieces are loaded on the worktable.

However, although the effect is powerful, it is also a lot troublesome to debug.

Take programming, for example.

When using a number of cars, no matter how complex things are, you can completely hold the drawings and manually program them according to the dimensions on the drawings in front of the machine.

Of course, counting cars can't do anything complicated, after all, its working principle is destined for its narrow range of uses.

As for the machining center, make a simple process, such as making a hole in an easy position, and then tap a tooth or something, maybe you can also make a braiding by hand.

It's a little more complicated, and it's a joke to make it up by hand. No matter how complicated it is, such as carving a map of the Qingming River, or milling a drone base, it is definitely a fantasy to knit it by hand.

Well, maybe the old master in YY's novel at the starting point is an exception.

At this time, computer programming is used, that is, CAM computer-aided manufacturing.

CAM and CAD, one manufactures one design and the other is only one letter apart. However, in reality, most CAM software already contains CAD modules, so people who can CAM can more or less CAD.

Changed to Chinese, it is exactly what I said earlier: "Good manufacturing must be designed, and vice versa." ”

However, CAD at least has domestic software. There are many CAM software, such as MCam, UG, Pro-E, Creo, etc. It's a pity that all of them are parked products, and there is no one in Huaguo.

Even a lot of software has a Chinese version.,But it's not at all careful.。 When the Chinese people opened it, they were about to burst into tears, and the Chinese translator was probably the work of the physical education teacher.

Speaking of which, I have to add a few more words.

Nowadays, many CNC programming in the factory are accustomed to using the English version of the software for programming. Even some computers that originally had Chinese software would switch it to English. What's more, some people simply delete the Chinese patch, so that the software can no longer restore Chinese.

The purpose of these people to use the English version is that the English version of the software is more mature, but more often than not, it is simply to prevent apprentices or other ordinary employees from stealing CNC programming.

When many people see English in school, they make all kinds of excuses not to learn it, and then they can only obediently open their eyes and be blind. I have to say it's sad.

To get back to the point, without domestic CAM, Gu Fei's national pride was immediately hurt by a million points.

He tried to get No. 1 to get a Chinese programming software out to make the world dumbfounded, but unfortunately No. 1 ignored it completely.

CNC numerical control, the number is in the front and the back. The number, that is, the coordinate positioning, is the premise of control. This has long been an international standard, and future generations can only follow it.

No matter how capable No. 1 is, can it change the coordinates (X123 Y132 Z321) into long Chinese characters? Or change the control code G00 to G99, M00 to M99 to Chinese?

After picking, Gu Fei learned to be Master-CAM, referred to as MC.

It's an old CAM manufacturing software with a lot of features. It can program lathes, milling machines (machining centers), wire cutting, grinding machines, etc.

However, other lathes do not use computer editing at all, so its biggest function is the knitting machining center.

If you want to talk about the advantages of this MC, it's probably because it's studious. But if there is a downside, it is that it is old and the CAD module is relatively rudimentary.

Modern manufacturing is not about traditional Chinese medicine or national arts, which are the more ancient things that sound sharper. On the contrary, each of its technologies is more powerful the younger it is.

The same goes for CAM software.

It's just that although a lot of software needs to be programmed by a computer, the development of software is completely unable to catch up with the development of computers.

The same is true of MasterCAM and even any CAM software in the world. For example, the Windows system has developed to Win10, but the Mastercam of most companies is still in the XP era.

In fact, these CAM or CAD software are all up to date, but the manufacturing software that produces them is not always the WIN operating system.

If the computer system is broken, it is a big deal to reinstall it, and at most it will waste some time. However, CAM software is not the same, it can be much more expensive than WIN systems. The most important thing is that the program is to be used on the machine tool, and if there is a mistake in it, it is a huge loss or even a matter of human life.

After several days, the typhoon gradually dissipated and the weather began to heat up again.

Gu Fei sat at his desk, counting the days when the machining center would be shipped back, while flipping through the corresponding books.

I don't know how long it took, but the girl from the personnel department brought a brother who applied for a job over.

This was supposed to be received by Wu Gong. However, since the last repair incident, Wu Gong has "happily" continued to work on his network in the office, and he didn't want to step into the manufacturing workshop half a step.

Moreover, he did not know CNC technology at all, and he could not do anything to test the candidates.

Gu Fei, who was an interviewer for the first time, didn't accept the other party's thick resume, but just looked at his appearance and ID card: Liu Ming.

For applying for this type of technical work, it is useless to write a gorgeous resume. Just ask the other person to stand in front of the machine, and it won't take a few minutes to see if the person is really talented or just talking.

Seeing Liu Ming's sweaty appearance, Gu Fei subconsciously looked at the brilliant sun outside, and then hurriedly got a cup of herbal tea and sent it over.

"Are you here to apply for a number of cars or a number of mills?" Gu Fei asked, he really didn't know what the company's recruitment notice was about.

"It's all right, as long as it's CNC, of course, the machining center is the best."

Although Gu Fei didn't read or even take the resume, Liu Ming saw that he was very young and polite, and his heart suddenly felt a lot easier.

"All-rounder." Gu Fei was amazed, he pondered for a while, motioned to Liu Ming to quench his thirst first, and asked, "Then what was the CNC you drove before?" ”
