In the production of switchgear, CNC stamping technology has significant advantages and important application value. CNC stamping can manufacture high-precision and high-quality components for switchgear. For example, important components such as panels, side panels, and partitions of switchgear can be processed through CNC stamping. Specific advantages include:
Precision forming: It can accurately punch various shapes and sizes of holes, grooves, and protrusions to meet the complex wiring and component installation needs inside the switchgear. For example, in order to install specific electrical components, precise matching installation holes need to be punched on the panel.
Efficient mass production: able to quickly complete the stamping of a large number of identical components, greatly improving production efficiency and meeting the requirements of large-scale production of switchgear.
High material utilization rate: Through optimized layout and stamping path planning, material waste is minimized to the greatest extent and production costs are reduced.
Complex shape processing capability: It can manufacture parts with complex contours and curved shapes, increasing the design flexibility and aesthetics of switchgear.
There are significant differences between CNC punching and ordinary punching machines in multiple aspects:
1. Control system and automation level: CNC punching are equipped with a program control system that can logically process programs with control codes or other symbolic instructions, and automatically process parts. However, ordinary punching machines do not have such a control system, and their operation relies more on manual labor. This makes CNC punching far more automated than ordinary punching machines, and can significantly improve production efficiency.
2. Processing accuracy and quality: CNC punching machines usually have high processing accuracy and stable processing quality. This is mainly due to its digital signal control form, where each pulse signal is output by the CNC device, allowing the moving parts of the punch to move in a pulse equivalent motion, thereby achieving high-precision machining. The processing accuracy of ordinary punching machines may be relatively low, and the processing quality may be affected by human factors.
3. Processing format and flexibility: CNC punching have a large processing format and can perform multi coordinate linkage, which can process complex shaped parts. More importantly, when machining parts, CNC punching machines usually only need to change the CNC program without the need to manufacture or replace a large number of molds and fixtures, thus saving production preparation time. Ordinary punching machines may require more manual adjustments when replacing processed parts, and their flexibility is relatively low.
4. Operation difficulty and training requirements: The operation of CNC punching is relatively simple, and personnel with basic computer knowledge can get started after 2-3 days of training. The operation of a regular punch may rely more on the skills and experience of the operators.
