Fixed column structure horizontal machining center, as the name implies, is that the column of the horizontal machining center is fixed, mainly by the spindle box and worktable to do XYZ axis movement, fixed column horizontal machining center can be divided into three types according to the axis direction of the spindle box and the workbench. The specific three types are explained by the editor below.
Fixed column horizontal machining center (the worktable moves in X and Z axes, and the headstock moves in Y axis)
The table moves in X and Z axes, and the headstock moves in Y axis
This kind of horizontal machining center with fixed column structure is easier to understand and is also common in the market. This structure is also called headstock front hanging structure. In the horizontal machining of this structure, the left and right movement of the worktable is x-axis, the fore-and-aft movement is the z-axis, and the up-down movement of the headstock is the y-axis. This type of horizontal centering is suitable for the boring and milling of medium-sized complex parts.
The spindle box of this type of horizontal machining center with fixed column belongs to side hanging, which is very rare in the market. In this type of horizontal machining center with fixed column, the table moves left and right as X axis, the headstock moves forward and backward as Z axis, and moves up and down as y axis. This type of horizontal machining center is suitable for boring, milling and other processes of medium-sized parts.
The headstock of this type of fixed column horizontal machining center is suspended, mainly suspended on the X, Y axis. This structure is similar to the gantry machining center, and this type of horizontal machining center is also rare in the market. In this type of horizontal machining center with fixed column, the z-axis is the table moving forward and backward, the x-axis is the left-right movement of the headstock, and the y-axis is the up-down movement. This type of horizontal machining center is suitable for boring and milling of small and medium-sized parts.
