Mecanizado de cajeras cerradas
Las cajeras cerradas suelen fabricarse con desbastado a escala Z. Normalmente, se elige para ello el fresado de la entrada de mecanizado por medio de una rampa. La elección de la herramienta dependerá del grosor de las paredes y de la inclinación de moldeado del componente. La amplia gama de MAPAL de sistemas modulares también abarca el mecanizado de cajeras profundas de gran diámetro.
Tool overview for the following machining steps:
Sgrossatura
L’operazione di sgrossatura è responsabile di gran parte del volume di truciolatura. Speciali strategie di fresatura come la lavorazione ad alto avanzamento o la fresatura trocoidale sono in grado di ridurre il tempo di lavorazione e quindi di aumentare la redditività. Oltre agli utensili con inserti a fissaggio meccanico e alle frese in metallo duro integrale, vengono impiegate anche frese ad alte prestazioni con una speciale geometria di sgrossatura.
Residual material roughing
After roughing, in a second machining step, users machine the residual material, especially in corners and cavities, removing material as constantly as possible. Usually tools with corner radius or high-feed milling cutters are used. In some cases a ball cutter can be used to remove the residual material in corners.
Pre-finishing
If there are high demands on dimensional accuracy and surface finish, semi-finishing is recommended before finishing. With pre-finishing, machining approaches the final mould profile. The aim is to obtain a residual material that is as constant as possible in order to enable fast finishing with high demands on the surface quality. The stock removal after roughing is approx. 0.5-1 mm for hardened materials and 0.03-0.5 mm for soft materials. After pre-finishing, the constant stock removal is 0.05-0.1 mm for hardened materials or 0.1-0.3 mm for soft materials.
Finishing
The finishing process removes the remaining material in order to achieve the final shape. After pre-finishing, stock removal is 0.05-0.1 mm for hardened materials or 0.1-0.3 mm for soft materials. Ball and/or corner radius milling cutters are the tools of choice, regardless of the final contours of the workpiece.
Residual material finishing
The increasingly complex properties of the shapes to be produced require milling of the residual material after finishing, mainly in the corners. Solid carbide ball cutters are usually used for this.
