Some successful cases of CNC application in the automotive field

On January 15, 2024, WEL Co., Ltd. obtained a patent for "a CNC rapid prototyping fixture for machining parts".

This fixture can complete the machining of five surfaces in one clamping, fully utilizing the characteristics of multi axis linkage and multi angle surface machining of five axis machine tools. It is not only convenient for workpiece clamping, but also only requires rough blanks along the shape of the workpiece, greatly improving machining efficiency, saving blank materials, and improving the appearance machining quality of parts.

CNC loading and unloading solution for a leading international automotive industry enterprise: A leading international automotive industry enterprise from Canada, specializing in the manufacturing of automotive parts and industrial products, providing manufacturing solutions and developing engineering products for customers.

The enterprise adopts the CNC loading and unloading solution for the automotive industry using the JAKA Pro 16 collaborative robot. With its excellent long-term operational capabilities, the JAKA Pro 16 collaborative robot has improved the production efficiency and product quality stability of the factory's production line. Its advantages include: the robot's positioning accuracy can reach ± 0.02mm, supplemented by visual inspection equipment, eliminating the risk of loading and unloading workpieces on both sides and defective workpieces, ensuring high-precision production;

Equipped with IP68 level safety protection capability, it can avoid the influence of cutting fluid on lathes and grinders, achieve uninterrupted bidirectional operation for 7 × 24 hours, and achieve high cycle production of single workpiece machine loading and unloading within 10 seconds, greatly improving factory production efficiency and yield. Jieka Robot has independently developed integrated joint technology, with a compact structure and a simple and diverse programming system, which can meet the planning of complex motion paths in small spaces and can be quickly deployed. It can cooperate with automated production equipment to carry out operations within 1 hour, easily achieving multi cycle joint operation links and multi variety product switching, meeting the short cycle and fast update needs of the automotive industry production line, and reducing the ROI cycle to within 1 year.

In addition, by replacing two manual workers with one robot, frontline employees can be transformed into robot managers, focusing on tasks such as product quality control and process optimization.

In order to solve the problem of the gap between domestic automotive engine technology and the world's advanced level, Huaya CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd. has developed models such as pentahedral machining centers and dual spindle drilling and tapping centers to help the development of the automotive manufacturing industry. Among them, the pentahedral machining center adopts a combination of vertical, horizontal, and rotary indexing, which can achieve turning, milling, and pentahedral machining. It can replace the robot assembly line of multiple processing equipment for composite machining of large parts, truly saving costs, energy, manpower, and production areas, breaking the traditional machining mode, improving spatial accuracy, and enhancing product quality. It is widely used in LED light boxes, new energy, communication and other pressure casting cavities.

The dual spindle drilling and tapping center adopts a dual spindle, dual column, and dual tool magazine structure design, which can achieve dual spindle linkage machining and improve efficiency by 100%. This structure has obtained a national patent. Its high-speed processor system is independently developed with software design, which can process two identical parts at once;

The machine tool is equipped with a dual tool magazine, which is conducive to multi process machining of complex workpieces; The tool length is automatically corrected, and the tool magazine can change tools asynchronously with phase frequency. It also has the characteristics of dual spindle high-speed and same frequency tapping.

One machine has twice the efficiency, and with the same production capacity, it saves twice the space and reduces labor by twice.
