Common methods to solve the problem of instability in workpieces due to the release of internal stresses in metal material in the CNC machining process:
Pre-treat the material:
Before machining, pre-treating the material, such as annealing or stress relieving treatment, can reduce:
-
- The internal stresses of the material,
- The possibility of deformation after machining.
Select the right tool and cutting parameters:
Choosing the right tool and cutting parameters can reduce:
-
- The stress and heat impact on the workpiece,
- Deformation after machining.
Changing the cutting direction:
-
- Refers to changing the direction of the tool relative to the workpiece surface during CNC machining.
- Considering the geometry of the workpiece to minimize deformation During CNC machining cutting.
Regular inspection and adjustment:
Regularly inspecting the dimensions of the workpiece during machining and adjusting as needed can help to identify and solve deformation problems in a timely manner
Use support structures:
For workpieces that are prone to deformation, support structures can be used during machining to support the workpiece and reduce the impact of deformation.
