What is 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine?
The 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine is a CNC(Computer Numerical Control)stone cutting machine tool that adopts five intrpolated axis, including X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis, A-axis and C-axis. It's a smart and multifucntional machine in stone industry, making stone processing precise and time-saving.
Generally, a 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine has a camera to position workpieces; Suction cups to lift workpieces automatically when cutting paths conflicts; An electronic spindle to put milling cutter for milling inner corner and faucet holes for countertop; A Saw Blade to Cut workpieces; Automatic Lubrication system; Automatic Size Measuring Tools,etc.
History of 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine
In developed countries, stone bridge cutting machines have developed from traditional bridge cutting machines to the current 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine, and have generally gone through two stages of development.
The First Stage is that in the 1990s, the ordinary bridge cutting machine was developed into a multi-functional bridge cutting machine. Its new functions are that the cutter can rotate 360 degrees on the horizontal plane and the cutter can turn 90 degrees in the front, rear and left and right directions. It can be used to process simple special-shaped plates. products.
The second Stage is to develop from a multi-functional bridge cutting machine to a CNC bridge cutting machine. Its new functions are mainly reflected in CNC, automation, multi-functionality and other aspects. Foreign countries pay more attention to the functional diversification and full automation of CNC bridge cutting machines, emphasizing the reduction of labor intensity and the personalization and diversification of products to avoid similar designs.
The first stage of the development of domestic stone bridge cutting machines began more than ten years ago. After the innovation, the functions of the machine tools were equivalent to those of foreign countries at that time. The second phase of development is underway.
In recent years, with the continuous improvement of stone bridge cutting machines, 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine has appeared. Its functions are basically the same as those of CNC machining centers with the same number of axes, and can process special-shaped stone products.
Application of 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine
5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine, as a multifuctional stone machine, can produce various of stone prodeucts, and can be applied in many fields:
1. Kitchen & Bathroom furnishing: Countertop, Wall panel, Work Tops, etc.
2. Urban Construction: Bricks, Parterre,etc.
3. Funeral: Tombstone
4. Furniture Production: Stone Table, Staircases, etc.
How to Choose 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine?
There are some important points before you purchase a 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine:
1. Machine Size: You need to know the maximum size of processing before purchasing a 5 axis cnc stone cutting machine.
The normal Processing size in the market is L3200X W2000x T90mm or L3500X W2000X T10mm. There's also a heavy-duty type 5 AXIS CNC Stone Cutting Machne for heavy loads production, the size is L3500X W2000X T170mm.
2. Functions: Before purchasing a 5 axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine, you need to know its functions. Generally, a 5 Axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine has a camera to position workpieces; Suction cups to lift workpieces automatically when cutting paths conflicts; An electronic spindle to put milling cutter for milling inner corner and faucet holes for countertop; A Saw Blade to Cut workpieces; Automatic Lubrication system; Automatic Size Measuring Tools,etc.
3. Precision of Machine: Precision is important for stone production. An experienced machine manufacturer can supply better machines for you.
3. Cuttin Speed: 22kw permanent magnet motor is the best choice for a 5 axis CNC Stone Cutting Machine. Permanent Magnet motor has faster Cutting Speed and is 40% Power Saving than normal type of motor.
4. Operation and installation: Easy Operation and installation is quite important.
