The CNC system 6TA of the gear hobbing machine adopts a 32-bit high-performance CPU and a large-scale programmable chip FPGA. Real time control and hardware interpolation technology ensure high efficiency at the μ m level accuracy of the system. The editable PLC makes the logic control function more flexible and powerful. The 6TA CNC hobbing machine system can control 5 feed axes, 2 simulated spindles, 1ms high-speed interpolation, and 0.1 μ m control accuracy, significantly improving the efficiency, accuracy, and surface quality of part processing.
Where is a CNC system manufacturer for gear hobbing machines? How to choose a CNC system for gear hobbing machine?
The 6TA hobbing machine CNC system is a cost-effective CNC hobbing machine system independently developed by domestic machine tool manufacturers. The worktable rotation, rolling cutter spindle rotation, tool holder slide vertical feed, and worktable horizontal feed of this system are all controlled by AC servo digital control to meet the requirements of their respective movements and combined movements. It is also possible to achieve tangential feed of the rolling cutter and automatic indexing of the tool holder through numerical control. This CNC gear hobbing machine system not only has all the functions of a universal gear hobbing machine, but also can process non-circular gears. Through programming, it can achieve various automatic cycles, such as processing multiple gears in one installation. When the machine tool has automatic workpiece clamping and automatic up and down devices, it can achieve single machine automation. When it has an automatic tool replacement device, it can be incorporated into a flexible gear machining system. At the same time, it also has a foolproof operation function. Operators generally only need to input parameters such as the number of teeth, module, height, and helix angle of the rolling cutter and workpiece, and can process gears through simple tool alignment.
