The center integrates the functions of a vertical machining center and a horizontal machining center. The machining center can complete all side and top processing of the workpiece after clamping the workpiece at a time, except for the mounting surface. The low price cnc machining center is called a universal machining center and a compound machining center in the industry.

The centered spindle and worktable are also vertical, the same as the vertical machining center. Machining centers are divided into two types according to different structures. One is that the spindle can be rotated 90° and can be used for vertical and horizontal processing. Its structure is the same as that of the gantry machining center, except for the spindle; the other is that the spindle cannot be rotated, and The worktable can be rotated by 90°, and the workpiece can also be processed on five sides in one clamping. Not only has the vertical machining center spindle and worktable vertical structure characteristics, but also has the horizontal machining center worktable rotating structural characteristics.

Advantages of machining center structure

The machining center greatly reduces the number of workpiece installations when installing the workpiece, avoids the accuracy error caused by multiple installation of the workpiece, and also saves the time of multiple installation of the workpiece, thereby improving the production efficiency and reducing the machining cost.

Disadvantages of machining center structure

The major disadvantages of machining centers are the high manufacturing cost, expensive price, large area of ​​the machine tool, complex machine structure, etc. Therefore, few customers in the industry use this type of machining center, and the vertical type is mostly used in many types of machining centers. Machining centers and horizontal machining centers are two types, followed by gantry machining centers, and cnc machining centers are rarely used.
