Delcam Partmaker programming is widely used on Swiss-type lathes and turn-mill machines

With the increasing development of the domestic machinery manufacturing industry, more and more medium and high-end Swiss-type longitudinal lathes and turning-milling lathes have been highly evaluated and recognized by our customers, and they are also used in precision metal processing, electronics, communications, and precision instrumentation. , Aviation, automotive, medical, watch and other industries have been widely used. However, most of the programming for such high-end machine tools is still limited to manual programming. We all know that manual programming is suitable for point processing or simple geometry machining of parts, and requires simple program calculation and fewer program blocks. However, for parts with complex shapes (especially those with curved surfaces), manual programming requires a lot of work and the processing of data is tedious, error-prone, and the on-machine test time of the program is long. Then the quotation and production cycle of the product will be extended. These to a certain extent greatly limited the machine tool's advantages in processing, affecting the company's competitiveness and rapid development. Therefore, the search for a professional programming software is also increasing.

Delcam Partmaker is a professional CAM software for Delcam in the UK that provides a good solution for Swiss-type longitudinal lathes and turn-milling lathes. First introduce the main functional modules of Delcam Partmaker.

PartMaker Mill: Supports 2.5D, 3, 4 and 5-axis machining center programming; PartMaker Turn: Supports 2-axis turning programming; PartMaker WireEDM: Supports 2- to 4-axis cutting programming; PartMaker Turn-Mill: Supports full range of multi-axis and with milling Programmable turning and milling of power heads supports all-brand full-series turning and milling complex machining centers produced in the past 15 years. PartMaker SwissCAM: Supports programming of all types of swivel machining centers (swivel type or slitting type) in Switzerland. ? ??

The following describes the programming advantages of Delcam PartMaker SwissCAM and Delcam PartMake Turn-Mill on a Swiss-type longitudinal lathe and turning-milling composite with examples.

1-1.

PartMaker's "divide and conquer" programming strategy patented technology enables the programming of CNC Swiss-type machine tools to be simpler; its programming principle is to decompose the complex workpiece surface into a series of planes and simple surfaces, in different FACE windows such as turning, flat Separate programming of milling and cylindrical machining. By programming the parts shown below, we can gain a deeper understanding of the functional advantages of PartMaker SwissCAM.

1-2.

A. Draw the geometry. In PartMaker, the part design can be quickly and easily prepared by PartMaker's built-in drawing software package, or it can be directly input by other CAD systems. PartMaker provides a variety of document input formats, such as DXF, X_T Parasolid, X_B Parasolid, SLDPRT SolidWorks Part File, IPT AutoDesk Inventor Part File, STL File, ProE File, STEP file.

B. Setup Faces to create a blank model.

C. Prepare Tools

PartMaker provides a tool magazine for managing the application of the main tool rest, turret, and front and rear tool holders, and automatically sets "tool offset" for Swiss turning centers as required; the cutting feed and spindle speed for each tool are automatically calculated.

D. Create Features Define the machining features we require in the different FACE windows and automatically select the machining tools in the production of the cutting path.

E. Visualise Cutting
PartMaker's process movement guidelines allow users to view the actual cutting process of a CNC Swiss machine on a computer screen.

F. Optimise Process (process optimization)

The process optimization table can display the machining process at each step of the master and slave spindles, including cutting feed, spindle speed, and cutting time. You can quickly optimize all machining processes by simply selecting and clicking the mouse.

G. Output NC Code (Generate NC Code)
PartMaker SwissCAM can output G code NC files including special "wait" and "synchronize" commands for machine tools. "Waiting" and "synchronous" commands are automatically added; relative manual programming can reduce the waiting time of the machine tool and improve programming efficiency and quality. Reduce the product's production cycle.
PartMaker SwissCAM supports output of multiple synchronized NC codes to most Swiss-type machines, including Citizen, Star, Tsugami, Miyano, Tornos, and Hanwha. Hanwha) and other types of Swiss-type machine tools.

PartMake Turn-Mill

PartMake Turn-MilL is aimed at turning-milling compound machines that can easily and easily perform machining of turning-milling features, polar coordinate milling (for B-axis milling), cylindrical milling (for C-axis milling) and Y Axis milling, which decomposes complex workpieces into a series of planes and rotating surfaces. It is very easy to realize the clamping, advancement and balance of materials. PartMake Turn-Mill's programming principles and processes are basically the same as those of PartMaker SwissCAM, and will not be introduced here.

The main customers of PartMaker SwissCAM and PartMake Turn-MilL include aviation, medical, auto parts (automobile fuel injection system, power steering system, motor system, brake system), electronic communications industry, watch industry, hardware industry. Many customers give PartMaker a high rating, such as:

“PartMaker SwissCAM has changed the way we do business. By using PartMaker-SwissCAM, we can ensure that the first time we program the part will be successful. PartMaker SwissCAM helps us to reduce our machine tool setting by 50% within 30 days of the start of use. Time, increased productivity, from Lenny Bennett, CNC Supervisor, Amphenol Inc. “PartMaker-SwissCAM is a true market leader in programming for Swiss-type (travelled or slitting) turning centers. It is the only system that we can find that fully satisfies the programming of any kind of Swiss machine in our company. ”

- Brian Korczynski, Supervisor Process Eng., Biomet, Inc. (3i division).

To sum up, Delcam PartMaker SwissCAM and Delcam PartMake Turn-MilL can easily program and guarantee the efficiency and quality of the machining of Swiss-type longitudinal lathes and turning-milling products. In particular, the Delcam PartMaker can Provide a wealth of back-end to meet the requirements of different manufacturers, different types of equipment.
