Small batch production is the center and future of production. Industrial planning always plays an important role in the whole situation. Small batch manufacturing is the epitome of modern manufacturing technology. Small batch manufacturing not only plays a very important role in product planning decomposition, but also is a powerful tool for product information security and market promotion.

 

With the increasingly fierce competition in the social market and the expansion of industrial planning, all industries attach importance to industrial planning and the production of manual models. The development quality and practical role of products need to be verified by companies. Small batch hand model industry has gradually separated from the process of industrial planning, and become a relatively independent industry. With the vigorous development, many professional small batch production companies have emerged. Large planning companies and industrial planning companies have established their own small batch processing offices.

 

Small batch production of hand panels solves the problem of multiple exhibitions

 

The products produced need a small batch trial production, so that more products can participate in the exhibition. Sometimes, there will be many places in the world, each place needs a set of hand board model, so small batch rapid production can solve these problems.

 

There are many ways to process the hand-board model, usually according to the customer's 3D drawings. Computer Gong carving is the most commonly used processing method, followed by SLA laser rapid prototyping, which requires small batch processing to produce more products to participate in the exhibition. In some cases, there will be many exhibitions around the world, such as Shanghai, Hong Kong and Shenzhen. These are just exhibitions in China. If there are other places in the world, such as American International Exhibition, European Exposition. All of these require a set of hand-drawn samples, so small batch production can solve these problems.

 

In order to improve the competitive advantage of product development as we all know. But in many cases, we need to save time,which means saving the product development cycle, and strive for listing as soon as possible. Saving time is saving cost. When we make ABS hand boards, the average time is 3 to 5 days.

 

How to use the best method to produce high quality hand-plate model and save time and cost is an important sign to test the scale of hand-held factory. We need to find a factory that can deliver the hand-board in time and make it completely according to the design requirements. Such a handboard factory can be based on the market and it will have its own survival rules.

What is CNC Machining Technology

With the development of science and technology, people's requirement for parts processing quality is becoming higher and higher. At the same time, product modification is frequent. In general mechanical processing, single and small batch products account for an increasing proportion. In order to ensure product quality, improve productivity and reduce costs, machine tools are required not only to have good versatility and flexibility, but also to have a high degree of automation in the process of processing. cnc machining technology is a kind of high-efficiency and flexible automatic processing technology developed under this environment, which is controlled by digital information of NC machine tools. It is suitable for high-precision, complex parts and small and medium-sized batch production.

 

CNC machine tool is an efficient and flexible mechanical-electrical integration equipment which integrates computer technology, modern control technology, sensor detection technology, information processing technology, network communication technology, hydraulic pneumatic technology, optical and mechanical technology, and it is the basis of modern manufacturing technology.

 

  1. Composition of NC Machine Tool and NC Machining Process

 

CNC machine tools refer to the machine tools that use digital information recorded in the media to control the machine tools through the CNC device, so that it can automatically implement the specified processing process.

 

1) Composition of CNC Machine Tools

 

NC machine tools automatically process workpieces according to pre-programmed processing procedures. CNC machine tools are usually composed of machine body, servo system, CNC device and control medium, as shown in Figure 2-61.

 

Figure 2-61 Composition of CNC Machine Tool

 

Control medium. Control medium, also known as information carrier, is an intermediate medium which conveys the operation intention of human to CNC machine tools. It contains all the information necessary to process a part. Commonly used control media are perforated tape, magnetic tape, disk and other carriers that can store instruction information. For the short NC processing program, the NC device can be input directly through the keyboard on the NC operation panel.

 

NC device. CNC device is the center of CNC machine tool. It receives the information from control medium, and converts it into pulse signal to control machine tool action.

 

Servo system. Servo system is a device which connects the moving parts of machine tool with CNC system, including servo drive mechanism and movable parts of machine tool. It is the executive part of CNC system of machine tool. It transforms the impulse signal from CNC device into the movement of machine tool parts, so that the worktable or tool holder can be positioned accurately or moved strictly according to the expected trajectory, and the parts meeting the requirements of the drawings can be machined.

 

Machine tool.  Machine tool is the mechanical part of NC machine tool. Besides the general parts such as main drive device, feed drive device, bed, worktable and auxiliary part, there are also special parts, such as tool storehouse, automatic tool changer and rotary worktable.

 

NC Machine Parts Processing Process

 

The NC machine tool parts processing process is that the operator first changes it into the content of manufacturing process according to the processing pattern. On the basis of familiarity with the processing technology, the processing program is compiled, and the human will is transformed into the acceptable information of CNC machine tools with the prescribed code and program format. Record information on control media (such as punched tape, tape or disk) to make it an instruction for controlling machine tools. After the input information is processed by the NC device, the command pulse is sent to the servo system of the coordinate axes of the machine tool to drive the corresponding moving parts of the machine tool, and other actions such as speed change, tool change and machine shutdown are controlled to automatically process the workpiece that meets the requirements of the drawings.

 

Classification of 2 NC Machine Tools

 

CNC machine tools can be classified according to process use, locus of motion, control mode and so on. This paper only introduces the classification according to process use. CNC machine tools are classified according to their processing characteristics or main processing procedures. They are mainly CNC lathes (including turning centers), CNC milling machines (including milling centers), CNC boring machines, CNC machining centers, CNC grinding machines (including grinding centers), CNC drilling machines (including drilling centers), CNC broaching machines, CNC planer, CNC cutting machine, CNC gear processing machine and CNC EDM machine (including EDM center, etc.). Figure 2-62 shows the appearance of CK50 NC lathe. Its processing range is the same as that of ordinary lathe. It mainly processes rotational parts such as shafts and discs. Figure 2-63 shows the appearance of XJK125 NC milling machine. It is especially suitable for the processing of complex parts. It can complete milling, drilling and boring.

 

Figure 2-62   CK50 CNC lathe appearance chart

 

Figure 2-63   XJK125 CNC Milling Machine Appearance Diagram

 

Machining center (MC) is a kind of NC machine tool for multi-process machining of workpiece. It has a tool library and an automatic tool changer (ATC). After the workpiece is clamped once, under the control of the NC system, the machining center can automatically select and change the cutting tools according to different processes; automatically change the spindle speed, feed rate and the movement track of the tool relative to the workpiece and other auxiliary functions; sequentially complete the multi-process processing on several surfaces of the workpiece. Therefore, it reduces the time of workpiece clamping, measuring and machine adjustment, shortens the time of workpiece storage and handling, improves productivity and machine tool utilization, and it is an important development direction of CNC machine tools. Figure 2-64 shows the layout of JCS-018 machining center. Its shape is similar to that of vertical milling machine. There is a sliding seat 2 on the bed 1, and it moves horizontally (y axis direction). Workbench 3 moves longitudinally on the slide seat (x-axis direction). There are frame pillars 5 at the back of the machine tool. The spindle box 9 makes vertical lifting motion (z axis direction) on the column guide rail. The left and right parts of the column are the NC device 6, the left front part is equipped with the tool storehouse 7 and the automatic tool changing manipulator 8, and the left lower part is equipped with the lubrication device 4. There are 16 cutters in the tool library, which can complete all kinds of hole processing and milling. There are 16 cutters in the tool library, which can complete all kinds of hole processing and milling. The NC operation panel 10 is suspended in front of the operator's right for easy operation. The working state of the machine tool is displayed on the panel. Machining centers are usually divided into horizontal, vertical and universal machining centers according to the spatial position of the spindle during processing.

3 Programming

 

The so-called programming means that the process, process parameters, tool movement and direction and other auxiliary actions (tool changing, cooling, clamping, etc.) of parts are compiled into tables according to the sequence of movement and the instruction code and program format given by the NC machine tools used. This form is called "parts processing program sheet", or simply "procedure sheet". Then, all the contents of the program sheet are recorded on the control medium (such as perforated tape, tape, etc.), and then transmitted to the NC device to direct the NC machine tool processing. The whole process from the analysis of part drawings to the production of control media for NC machine tools is called programming.

 

Generally speaking, the steps of NC programming are: process design→numerical calculation→preparation of parts processing program sheet→preparation of control medium or program input→program verification and trial cutting.

 

1) Process design

 

On the basis of comprehensive analysis of part drawings, the clamping and positioning method, processing route (such as tool setting point, tool changing point, feed route), tool and cutting parameters (such as feed speed, spindle speed, cutting width and cutting depth) are determined.

 

2) numerical calculation

 

According to the part drawing and the determined processing route, the tool trajectory is calculated.

 

The general NC device has the functions of linear interpolation and circular interpolation. For processing simple parts consisting of arcs and straight lines, only the coordinate values of the intersection or tangent points (base points) of adjacent geometric elements on the contour of the part are calculated, and the starting and ending points of the straight line, the starting and ending points of the arc and the coordinate values of the center of the circle can be obtained. When the shape of parts is complex and the interpolation function of NC devices is inconsistent, more complex calculations are needed.

 

3) Writing Procedure Sheet for Parts Processing

 

According to the calculated coordinates of tool path, the determined cutting parameters and auxiliary actions, and the instruction codes and program formats prescribed by the NC system, a part processing program sheet is compiled.

 

4) Preparing control medium or program input

 

After the program sheet has been written, the operator or programmer must input the processing information into the NC device. According to the different input and output devices of the NC system, the program can be moved to some control medium first. Commonly used control media are U disk, disk, tape and so on.

 

Program Checking and Trial Cutting

 

The program must be checked and tested before it can be used formally. The method of checking is to input the contents of the control medium directly into the NC device to check whether the tool's trajectory is correct or not. On the CNC machine tool with CRT graphics display screen, the program checking and trial cutting can be carried out by simulating the cutting process of the workpiece; otherwise, the pen can replace the knife and coordinate paper can replace the workpiece, so that the machine tool can run and draw the processing trajectory.

 

These methods can only check whether the tool's motion path is correct or not, and can not check the machining accuracy. Therefore, the trial cutting of parts should also be carried out. If it is found that the accuracy of the parts can not meet the requirements through trial cutting, the program sheet and the control medium should be modified, and the error compensation method should be adopted until the qualified parts are processed.

 

  1. Characteristics and Application of CNC Machine Tools

 

1) Characteristics of CNC Machine Tools

 

(1) High processing accuracy and stable processing quality. Because of the high manufacturing accuracy of CNC machine tool and the automatic processing according to the scheduled program, the artificial operation error is avoided, the consistency of the same batch of parts is good, and the product quality is stable.

 

High productivity. Because many parts can be processed in one clamping process, many intermediate processes (such as marking) are omitted. Generally, only the first piece inspection is needed, which greatly shortens the production preparation time, so the productivity is high.

 

(3) The high degree of automation reduces the intensity of labor and improves the working conditions. Except for the manual clamping of the blank, the whole processing process is automatically completed by the machine tool, which reduces the labor intensity of the operator and improves the working conditions.

 

(4)It has strong adaptability and good economic benefit. When the processing object is changed, the NC program can be redesigned without redesigning tools, fixtures and moulds. This greatly shortens the product development cycle and provides a shortcut for the development of new products. At the same time, the processing accuracy is high, the quality is stable, the waste rate is reduced, the production cost is reduced, and the productivity is high, so good economic benefits can be obtained.

 

(5) It is conducive to the modernization of production management. By using NC machine tools, the processing time of parts can be accurately calculated, and the management of inspection, fixture and semi-finished products can be effectively simplified, which is conducive to the modernization of production management. Because of the use of digital information, it is easy to form an integrated computer aided design and manufacturing system.

 

However, the cost of CNC machine tools is high, the technology is complex and the maintenance is difficult, which requires higher quality of management and operators.

 

Application of NC Machine Tool

 

CNC machine tools are widely used, especially suitable for processing parts with the following characteristics: multi-variety, small batch production parts; parts with complex structure and high precision requirements; parts with frequent modifications. CNC machine tools can save a lot of tooling costs, reduce the overall cost. It is expensive, and it does not allow scrap of key parts; urgent parts with the shortest production cycle are needed.

Talk about Application of Rapid Prototyping Technology in Jewelry Design Briefly

 

With the development of science and technology, the application of computer technology has been widely used in our life, and the field of jewelry design is no exception. Laser welding, laser marking, numerical control processing, rapid prototyping and other technologies have made tremendous changes in jewelry design and processing. Among them, Rapid Prototyping Manufacturing (RPM), a high-tech manufacturing technology considered as a major achievement in the manufacturing field in the past two decades, has a particularly rapid development momentum. It not only improves the efficiency of jewelry design and processing, but also has a profound impact on jewelry design.

 

Rapid prototyping technology was born in the late 1980s. It is a part prototype manufacturing technology which integrates the latest achievements of mechanical engineering, CAD/CAM technology, reverse engineering technology, layered manufacturing technology, laser technology, numerical control technology and new materials. Generally speaking, jewelry rapid prototyping technology uses three-dimensional CAD data to stack layers of materials into solid prototypes through rapid prototyping machines. It is different from the traditional "removal" processing method. It uses a new "growth" processing method. Its basic principle is to decompose the complex three-dimensional processing into the superposition of simple two-dimensional processing, so it is also called "laminated manufacturing". It can automatically, directly, quickly and accurately transform design ideas into prototypes with certain functions or directly produce parts, thus providing an efficient and low-cost means for prototyping and verification of new design ideas. There are more than ten kinds of rapid prototyping methods, including SLA, SLS, LCM and FDM.

 

At present, fused deposition moulding (FDM) and light curing (SLA) are widely used in the field of jewelry. Fused Deposition Molding (FDM) is a method that melts low melting point and low material, sprays out through the nozzle, controls the nozzle to move on the two-dimensional guideway by computer. The nozzle moves along the layered contour and solidifies the material to obtain a thin layer. Through the accumulation of different section contour layers, a three-dimensional solid model is finally formed. SLA uses liquid photosensitive resin as raw material. Under the control of computer, the ultraviolet laser scans the liquid resin point by point according to the contour track of the layered section of jewelry, which causes the resin thin layer in the scanned area to produce photopolymerization (curing) reaction, thus forming a thin section of jewelry. After the liquid photosensitive resin curing layer in a scanned area is completed, the worktable drops one layer. The cured resin surface is scanned and cured repeatedly after being coated with a new layer of liquid resin, so that each layer is adhered to each other repeatedly until the whole part is cured. Compared with traditional jewelry production methods, these technologies not only improve the efficiency of jewelry production, reduce the intensity of labor, but also further improve the accuracy of model plate producing. These advantages undoubtedly makes jewelry production better. Similarly, as an excellent jewelry work, from conception design to production completion, design is a particularly critical step. Today, rapid prototyping technology is popular, and it also affects the development of jewelry design in all aspects.

 

Give Jewelry Design More Material Selection Possibility

 

In the past, people used to think of gold, silver, gemstone and other materials in jewelry. With the development of technology, taking 3D printing in rapid prototyping technology as an example, the materials used include polymer materials, metal materials, ceramic materials and composite materials. Because of the relatively fine effect and low cost of 3D printing technology, and the unique texture and plasticity of the material presented by this technology, many jewelry artists and designers now choose to use polymers commonly used in 3D printers as design materials. For example, Svenja John, a pioneer artist in the use of digital technology, has studied computer control technology since 1963. In 1994, Svenja John began to cut polycarbonate into parts by using CAD technology. It is processed and colored to form geometric jewelry with other parts. Later, she used rapid prototyping technology and combined her design with printers that can print different materials and colors at the same time. Color polycarbonate is reorganized by order but accidental. Her works always radiate an incredible vitality, because she skillfully combines artistry and technology, giving new materials unique artistic language. Svenja John said: "I don't want to use synthetic materials as simple decorative or cheap alternatives, but to explore and use the advantages and uniqueness of synthetic materials. Synthetic materials can be colorful, brilliant transparent texture, or elegant semi-transparent sandy texture, which is a medium to give people a real feeling and transmit real touch.

 

Enrich the formal expression of jewelry design

 

Whether in the process of jewelry design or the presentation of design results, rapid prototyping technology has become one of the most effective assistants. Compared with the traditional way of drawing design drawings or making samples according to sketches, rapid prototyping technology can construct models and proofing accurately in a shorter time. In the form of design results, rapid prototyping technology gives jewelry design unlimited possibilities. Standard symmetrical jewelry is the best rapid prototyping technology, and stereo, multi-layer, hollow and other complex modeling, it is absolutely difficult to invert rapid prototyping technology. Moreover, according to the characteristics of computer software required by rapid prototyping technology, many elements with digital traces have been brought into jewelry design. Through the design of 3D printing technology, the texture of digital traces on the surface can also be said to be decoration, and it is also an important element of the overall modeling. This is reflected in many designs after the maturity of computer technology.

 

It can be said that if rapid prototyping technology does not appear, it is estimated that designer Maria Eife will not be a hit. Maria Eife is a veteran player of rapid prototyping technology, and she has been fascinated by the innovation and reconstruction of existing jewelry forms. Her design often has traces of traditional jewelry, but the design is exaggerated and modern. According to her experience, it's very difficult to make her jewelry in other ways. Maria Eife said: "The shapes I create are often impossible or difficult to create in other ways. Some of my designs tend to be too heavy or expensive if they are made in other ways. "It is undeniable that rapid prototyping technology gives designers more freedom of creation and formal expression.

 

Provide new creative ideas for jewelry design

 

Design concept is the soul of jewelry works. Excellent jewelry works can not leave input and excavation of design ideas and connotations of Designers. Rapid prototyping technology not only provides efficient and convenient production, but also brings new creative ideas for jewelry design. For example, the work of Professor Wang Xiaoxin, of Academy of Fine Arts, Tsinghua University uses rapid prototyping technology. In the shape of metal form, the neat arrangement of human body group images, with the combination of jade articles and people, reflects the cultural connotation of "harmony of heaven and man". Its deep deconstruction and reconstruction of "harmony" culture is shown in the carrier of jade ritual ware. The design concept of this work originates from tradition, but the method of expression is modern. This design idea of combining traditional concept with modern language has also been developed and realized with the maturity of rapid prototyping technology.

 

Rapid prototyping technology not only attracts jewelry designers, but also inspires the visual artist Beate Eismann who is interested in jewelry design. She has produced a series of jewelry works by using rapid prototyping technology such as 3D printing and computer control technology. Beate Eismann has devoted herself to digital design and production for many years. There is a recurring theme in her research over the years: the printing technology of the past and the present. It can be said to be a new way of thinking in her creation. Therefore, she combines the printing plate of jewelry with modern technology and puts forward the concept of the relationship between the original and the copy. This concept combined with 3D printing made her feel like drawing in a space. In this process, she discovered the interaction between handcrafting and computer control, an experimental space for the combination of traditional materials and new materials. The research of rapid prototyping technology makes her creation success. Her works give people a surreal feeling, like "hybrid" living works. Inspired by a project in 2016 and combined with 3D printing, Beate Eisman began exploring and experimenting with intelligent materials. This spring-like creative thinking is developed from the deep study of rapid prototyping technology and the requirement of self-creation and perfection.

Production Management of Small Batch and Variety

 

The production mode of small batch and multi-variety is to adapt to the changing market, according to market demand, order, quality, quantity and punctual production. In the market economy, consumers tend to diversify their hobbies and pursue high-level, unique and popular commodities different from others. New products emerge in an endless stream. In order to expand market share, enterprises must adapt to this change in the market. The diversification of enterprise products has become an inevitable trend. Of course, we should see that the diversification of products and the emergence of new products will also lead to the elimination of some products before they are out of date and still have usable value. It is a great waste of social resources, and this phenomenon should arouse people's attention. Its goal is to shorten the delivery time and reduce the inventory of the production system.

 

 

 

1.Improve adaptability to changing demand

 

 

Small batch, single piece transmission

 

 

Multi-skilled employees

 

 

Internal Quality Assurance System of Processes

 

 

Universalization of Equipment and Fixtures

 

 

 

2.To expose manufacturing problems and their weaknesses

 

 

Quality failure

 

 

Equipment failure

 

 

Workload imbalance

 

 

Transfer time

 

 

 

3.Eliminate waste caused by improper production management and reduce production management costs

 

 

Material waiting due to improper production management

 

 

Unnecessary type change due to improper production management

 

 

Increase in indirect operations due to improper production management

 

 

 

  1. Improve the adaptability of manufacturing to short delivery time

 

 

Eliminating Stagnation ( Information of it)

 

 

Reduce the number of intermediate products in process

 

 

Synchronization

 

 

Characteristics of small batch and multi-variety

 

 

  1. Multivariate Parallel

 

Because the products of many enterprises are aimed at customer configuration, different products have different needs, and the resources of enterprises are in many varieties.

 

 

  1. Resource Sharing

 

Every task in the production process needs resources, but the resources available in the actual process are very limited. For example, equipment conflicts are often encountered in the production process, which is caused by project resource sharing. Therefore, limited resources must be appropriately allocated to meet project needs.

 

 

  1. Uncertainty of Order Result and Production Cycle

 

Because the demand of customers is unstable, and the planned nodes are inconsistent with the complete cycle of human, machine, material, method, loop, etc., the production cycle is often uncertain. The project with insufficient cycle needs more resources, which increases the difficulty of production control.

 

 

  1. Variable material requirements lead to serious procurement delays

 

Due to the insertion or change of the order, it is difficult for external processing and procurement to reflect the order delivery time. Because of small batches and single source of goods, the supply risk is very high.

 

 

Difficulties in small batches and multi-varieties

 

 

  1. Dynamic process path planning and virtual unit line deployment: emergency plug-in, equipment failure, and bottleneck drift.

 

  1. Bottleneck identification and drift: before and during production

 

  1. Multi-level bottleneck: assembly line bottleneck, parts virtual line bottleneck, how to coordinate coupling.

 

  1. Buffer size: either backlog or poor anti-jamming. Production batch, and transfer batch, etc.

 

  1. Production scheduling: We should not only consider bottlenecks, but also the impact of non-bottleneck resources.

 

 

There are also many problems in the practice of multi-variety and small-batch production mode in enterprises, such as:

 

 

It is very difficult to arrange mixed production for multi-variety and small-batch production.

 

 

If delivery is not on schedule, there are too many "fire fighting" overtime.

 

 

Orders require too much follow-up

 

 

Frequent changes in production priorities prevented the original plan from being executed

 

 

Inventories are increasing, but critical materials are often lacking

 

 

The production cycle is too long and it expands indefinitely in advance.

 

 

Multi-variety and Small-quantity Production

 

 

1.Necessity of Import

 

 

Purple: to shorten the manufacturing cycle, reduce inventory and adapt to load changes.

 

 

Conditions: shortening the preparation time, multi-frequency handling, process internal quality control, rely on improving manufacturing technology to shorten manufacturing cycle, standard operation, parts synchronous supplying mechanism (parts matching, Kanban management), flexible equipment, production plan to be divided into small batches to organize production.

 

 

The ultimate goal: balanced production: daily multi-model production + single-piece transmission production with different models mixed

 

 

 

2.Are all types of machines suitable for small quantity batch production?

 

 

This is not the case. Manufacturing should match the sales speed, so the market demand for large-scale or medium-batch production of models.

 

 

ABC analysis method is derived from the PQ analysis method which can distinguish the boundary.

 

 

Mode of production:

 

  1. For mass production

 

  1. For Medium-batch production

 

  1. For small batch production

 

 

Because the market is changing in many directions, mass production is the reason for the increase of inventory. We should try our best to avoid this mode of production, so that we can reduce the inventory by daily production (small batch production).

 

 

Balanced production

Production switching of multi-varieties and small batch orders

 

 

The switching action on the production site can be divided into the following types:

 

 

Type 1: Mould, Tool, Fixture and Mould Switching

 

 

This type of switching can be seen more in mechanical processing plants and plastic injection plants, and it is also the most common example of switching action.

 

 

For example, the die of punch, injection moulding machine, lathe, drill tool replacement, etc. Therefore, it is sometimes collectively referred to as "die changing operation" or "die changing". However, this usage is easy to mislead people who are not sure about it, or beginners. They think that the switching action is limited to the switching of moulds and so on. Therefore, I think that it is more appropriate to use "switching" as a general term.

 

 

Type 2: Switching of Standard Change

 

 

For example, when computers and numerical controllers are used in precision cutting or chemical devices, once the product is changed, the setting conditions must be changed. In fact, in the whole process of "switching", adjustment is the most time-consuming and difficult part to overcome.

 

 

Type 3: Switching of parts and materials in assembly line

 

 

In the assembly line, when the product changes, the parts or materials used must follow the change. This kind of action is generally called "line-changing operation". In traditional Line-Changing operations, it's common to wait until the last product is finished before the whole production line stops to change.

 

 

As an assembly line with many assemblies, this method will cause a long time of shutdown and a great loss. In fact, if we can change the line in sequence, no matter how many stations there are on the assembly line, the loss of the change time is only cycle time of one station.

 

Type 4: General preparation before manufacture

 

It refers to the preparatory work that must be done before the start of manufacturing, such as drawing review before mechanical processing, job assignment and cleaning up after work.

 

Four kinds of switching actions, though different in content, result in production standstill is the same. However, most people only focus on the improvement of switching action in the first mode changing operation, while ignoring the improvement of the other three modes. In fact, the improvement of the latter three types is easy to achieve. It also saves considerable switching time

Introduction

 

Rapid prototyping is an advanced manufacturing technology developed rapidly in recent years. This technology can quickly produce solid parts or models with arbitrary complex shapes from CAD data without any dies, cutters and tools, thus realizing the "die-less manufacturing" of new product development. It greatly shortens the development cycle, reduces costs and improves quality. It can automatically and quickly materialize the idea of ignorance into prototype or directly manufacture parts with certain structure and function, so as to evaluate and modify the product design quickly in response to market demand and improve the competitiveness of enterprises.

 

Principle of Define Rapid Prototyping Technology

 

Rapid prototyping is a digital prototyping technology based on discrete stacking forming. It uses discrete/stacking principle (such as solidification, bonding, welding, sintering, polymerization or other chemical reactions) to produce parts. Its working process is to obtain the path, restriction and mode of accumulation by discretization, and to "superimpose" materials to form three-dimensional entities by accumulation. First, in the CAD software system, the chieftain obtains the three-dimensional model plough or the surface data of the part entity through the measuring instrument, and then transforms the model into three-dimensional model. Secondly, the model is processed by data processing, and the CAD model is discretized along a certain direction (usually Z direction), and the plane slice is stratified.

 

Then the discrete layered information is combined with the information of forming process parameters and converted into the NC code to control the work of the forming machine. A three-dimensional solid part can be obtained by regularly and accurately stacking the materials controlled by a special CAM system.

 

Typical Rapid Prototyping Process

 

At present, there are more than ten methods of rapid prototyping technology, such as light curing, laminated manufacturing, laser sintering, fused deposition, mask curing, three-dimensional printing, spraying and so on. Mainstream forming methods are the first four.

 

Stereo lithography apparatus

 

Stereo lithography apparatus(SLA) is also known as stereolithography. SLA process is based on the principle of photopolymerization of liquid photosensitive resins. Under the specific wavelength and intensity of ultraviolet light irradiation, the liquid materials rapidly undergo photopolymerization, and the materials change from liquid to solid. The schematic diagram of SLA forming process is shown in Fig. 1 (a). The liquid tank is filled with liquid photosensitive resin. Under the deflection mirror, the laser beam can scan on the liquid surface. Where the light spot is scanned, the liquid solidifies. At the beginning of forming, the depth under the liquid level of the working platform is determined , and the liquid level is always out of the laser focusing plane. After focusing, the spot is scanned point by point on the liquid surface according to the instructions of the computer. It is point by point solidification. When a layer of scanning is completed, the untreated area is still liquid resin. Then the elevator drives the platform down one layer of height, and the formed layer is covered with a layer of resin. The scraper scrapes the liquid surface of the resin with high viscosity, and then scans the next layer. The newly solidified layer is firmly adhered to the former layer. This is repeated until the whole part is manufactured and a three-dimensional solid model is obtained.

 

Fig. 1 (a) 3.1Stereo lithography apparatus

 

SLA method is the most widely studied method in the field of RP technology, and it is also the most mature method in technology.

 

Generally, the thickness of the layer is (0.1-0.15) mm, and the precision of the formed parts is high. Years of research have improved the cross-section scanning mode and resin formability, so that the processing accuracy of the process can reach 0.1 mm, and now the highest accuracy has reached 0.05 mm. However, this method also has its own limitations, such as the need for support, resin shrinkage leading to a decline in accuracy, and photosensitive resin has a certain degree of toxicity, and so on.

HASCO is a leading European manufacturing company for moulding services and moulds, and is considered to be the standard maker for European moulds. The company recently developed a Quick-Change Mold System. This enables injection moulding manufacturers to quickly and effectively replace their moulds to reduce the time and cost of resetting their machines.

Small batch production products  is a unit of customized production and small batch production. There are many kinds of products produced in small batches, and the output of each variety is small. It needs to organize production according to the needs of users. It has the advantages of flexibility and good adaptability to the external market.

 

Brief overview

 

Owing to the wide range of batch production, it is usually divided into "mass production", "medium-batch production" and "small-batch production".

 

Small batch production refers to the production of special products which are basically required in small batches.

 

Single-piece small-batch production is a typical make-to-order (MTO), which has similar characteristics with single-piece production and is customarily called "single-piece small-batch production". Therefore, in a sense, "single piece small batch production" is more in line with the actual situation of enterprises.

 

It is composed of customized products (such as batch production clothing and turbines for hydroelectric power generation, etc.) and small batch production units.

 

Basic characteristics of mass production

 

Small batch production has the following characteristics:

 

  1. Long manufacturing cycle and long ordering period.

 

2.Universal equipment, a large number of employees, low production efficiency and low labor productivity.

 

3.High cost.

 

  1. Product quality can not be guaranteed.

HASCO is a leading European manufacturing company for moulding services and moulds, and is considered to be the standard maker for European moulds. The company recently developed a Quick-Change Mold System. This enables injection moulding manufacturers to quickly and effectively replace their moulds to reduce the time and cost of resetting their machines.

What is the Vacuum Casting?

The vacuum casting china technology which uses prototype  (SLA laser rapid prototyping piece, CNC products) to make silicone mold under vacuum, and is poured under vacuum conditions, such as PU, ABS, etc. Vacuum casting is also used to clone the prototype or copy the piece. It has different types including vacuum mould casting, vacuum pressure casting, vacuum sand casting and so on. This method is especially suitable for small batch production. It is a low-cost solution to solve experimental production and small batch production in a short time, and can also meet the functional test proofing of some structurally complicated engineering samples.

 

Vacuum Casting Process

  1. Make a silicone mold by using the master made by CNC machining and 3D printed.
  2. Put the silicone mold into the vacuum molding machine.
  3. Inject liquid epoxy resin and heat to cure.
  4. After the curing is completed, take out the same part as the Master from the silicone mold, and one silicone mold can be used for 20 times.

China Vacuum Casting is suitable for small batch production, which can greatly reduce production costs, increase production efficiency and shorten the construction period.

 

Applications for Vacuum Casting

It is mainly used for product copying and mold making in various industries.

What is Sheet Metal Processing?

Sheet metal processing or sheet metal fabrication includes: folding, shearing, punching, welding, riveting, splicing and other processes. In general, the process of forming a sheet by hand or mechanical is called sheet metal processing. Sheet metal processing is to cut and bend metal materials into various shapes and their thicknesses can vary significantly. According to the materials, sheet metal fabrication can be divided into several types, including aluminum sheet metal fabrication, stainless steel fabrication and brass fabrication.

 

Sheet metal process:

Sheet metal processing drawing design -> Laser processing or (CNC stamping) -> Bending -> Welding Molding -> Electrostatic powder spraying or (liquid paint) -> Packaging and shipping.

 

  1. Drawing design:

In general, the customer provide drawings or samples, then our engineers perform the measurement, design, and development, and form the machining decomposition map and assembly drawing to the production department for processing.

 

  1. Laser processing:

It has a large laser cutting machine, it can be cut by laser cutting  such as carbon steel, stainless steel, etc material. After the workpiece is processed, the section is neat, smooth and beautiful, and the size is accurate. It has advantages for the workpiece with arc. CNC stamping can not replace the processing method.

 

  1. CNC stamping:

With imported turret CNC punching machine, CNC punching is mainly for the thickness of product processing materials, generally suitable for materials below 2.5mm. Sheet metal processing workpieces have more holes or need to open special molds to process the workpiece. CNC punching has a certain cost advantage.

 

  1. Bend:

After the workpiece is cut, if most of them need to be bent and formed, the CNC bending machine not only has a fast speed, but also the workpiece is processed more accurately.

 

  1. Welding molding:

The workpiece needs to be assembled and formed after cutting the material, and the assembly method is various. Some are directly formed by non-welding processes such as screws and riveting. Generally, the mechanical casing is made of welding, and the company adopts argon arc welding, bump welding, carbon dioxide welding, etc., we will polished them after welding, so that the workpiece is relatively firm and beautiful.

 

  1. Electrostatic powder spray:

Electrostatic powder spraying is mainly for carbon steel workpieces. In the process, oil removal and derusting, surface cleaning, phosphating, electrostatic powder spraying and high temperature baking are generally carried out. After processing, the surface of the workpiece is beautiful, it will not rust within a few years, and the cost is low.

 

Liquid paint: This process differs from electrostatic powder spray. It is mainly used for large workpieces. It is convenient and low-cost to use liquid paint when it cannot be handled. The liquid paint is divided into two steps, and the primer is applied to the paint after the workpiece is processed.

 

  1. Packaging and shipping:

100% inspection before packaging and inspection data.

 

Advantages of Sheet Metal

Sheet metal has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, electrical conductivity (can be used for electromagnetic shielding), low cost, large-scale mass production performance, etc. It has been widely used in the fields of electronics, telecommunications, automotive industry, medical equipment and so on. For example, in computer cases, mobile phones, and MP3s, sheet metal is an essential part.

What is Rapid Prototyping?

Rapid prototyping is a kind of professional manufacturing technology that is used to produce high-quality entity models of three-dimensional designs. Prototypes are useful for design improvements and can be used as stepping stones for comprehensive production or engineering testing. With the plastic rapid prototyping , you can manufacture parts or the products to test for the component fit and function. According to the analysis results, you can make further adjustments (about the design, shape, materials, etc.) before the products finally enter the market. It can help you effectively save time and costs. A lot of our customers need to manufacture a entity component quickly to verify the feasibility of a design or a part. Nowadays, various kinds of rapid prototyping processes are available. You can choose the process which best suits your needs. With only thirty years around of development, rapid prototyping technology, as its name implies, has already been widely used in many areas. Meanwhile, the silicone rapid prototyping services are still growing at a fast speed.

 

Different Rapid Prototyping Processes

Prototypes can be made through different rapid prototyping processes. With thirty years around of development, a variety of prototype manufacturing processes are available. In addition, they are continuing to evolve. Since companies or customers have different requirements and demands, different types of rapid prototyping processes will be chosen. So how does rapid prototyping work? Reading the following contents and you will know which rapid prototyping service suits you best.

 

SLA (StereoLithography)

Description: SLA is a photo-curing molding technology, which refers to the method of forming three-dimensional solid layer by layer through the polymerization reaction of liquid photosensitive resin by ultraviolet irradiation. The work piece prepared by SLA has high dimensional accuracy and is the earliest commercial 3D printing technology.

Printing Material: Photosensitive Resin

Strength: photosensitive resin is insufficient in toughness and strength and is easily broken. At the same time, under high temperature conditions, the printed parts are easy to bend and deform, and the bearing capacity is insufficient.

Features of finished product: SLA printed workpieces have good details and smooth surface, which can be colored by spray painting and other processes.

 

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

Description:SLS is a selective laser sintering technology, similar to SLM technology. The difference is the laser power. It is a rapid prototyping method that uses infrared laser as a heat source to sinter powder materials and form three-dimensional parts layer-by-layer.

Printing Material:Nylon powder, PS powder, PP powder, metal powder, ceramic powder, resin sand and coated sand (common printing materials: nylon powder, nylon plus glass fiber)

Strength:material performance is better than ABS products, and the strength and toughness are excellent.

Features of finished product:the finished product has superior mechanical properties and is suitable for direct production of measurement models, functional models and small batch of plastic parts. The disadvantage is that the precision is not high, the surface of the prototype is relatively rough, and it is generally required to be polished by hand, sprayed with glass beads, ash, oil and other post-processing.

 

Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)

Description: FDM is a melt lamination technology, that uses high temperature to melt materials, extrudes them into filaments through the print head, and builds up on component platform. FDM is the simplest and most common 3D printing technology, which is commonly used in desktop 3D printing devices.

Printing Material:usually ABS or PLA wire

Strength: PLA is brittle,its surface hardness is higher, and it is easier to break when bending. ABS parts are more resilient than PLA parts, and are easy to bend rather than break under pressure. Moreover, ABS has higher strength, better plasticity, and easier post-processing.

Features of finished product: the printing layer is thick, the precision is poor, and the stratification of the surface is very obvious. Under high temperature conditions, the printed parts are easy to bend and deform, and the bearing capacity is insufficient.

 

CNC

Description: CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing process in which the software control system issues instructions to make the tool perform various required movements. In this process, various precision tools are used to remove the raw materials and make parts or products.

Materials: CNC processing materials are quite extensive, including plastics and metals. Plastic hand model materials are: ABS, acrylic, PP, PC, POM, nylon, bakelite, etc.; Metal hand model materials are: aluminum, aluminum Magnesium alloy, aluminum zinc alloy, copper, steel, iron, etc.

Strength: different materials have different strengths and are difficult to list

Features of finished product: CNC machined parts have a smooth surface, high dimensional accuracy, and the best compactness, and there are a variety of post-processing options.

 

Vacuum Casting

Description: vacuum casting technology is to use the prototype (rapid prototyping parts, CNC hand parts) to make a silicone mold under vacuum condition. It also uses PU, ABS and other materials to pour, so as to clone the same copy with the product prototype.

Material: ABS, PU, PVC, silicone, transparent ABS

Strength: the strength and hardness are lower than the CNC hand parts. Common PU material is relatively brittle, toughness and high temperature resistance are poor. ABS has higher strength, better plasticity, and easier post-processing.

Features of finished product: easy to shrink and deform; the accuracy is generally only 0.2mm. In addition, the vacuum casting hand parts can only resist high temperature of about 60 degrees, and is lower than CNC hand parts in strength and hardness.

 

Advantages of Rapid Prototyping

High degree of automation in forming process

Precise entity replication

High dimensional accuracy. Dimensional accuracy can be up to±0.1mm

Excellent surface quality

Unlimited design space

No assembly required

The 3-axis machining center has the advantages of high precision and high efficiency. It is commonly used to machine general parts, but it is more troublesome when machining complex workpieces, which may cause the workpiece to fail. Therefore, multi-axis simultaneous machining is the first choice when machining more complex workpieces.

 

Five-axis CNC machining

Five-axis machining is the use of CNC to move parts or cutting tools on five different axes simultaneously, which can process very complex parts.

The remarkable feature of the five-axis linkage CNC machine tool is that it can complete the surface machining, and no special fixture is needed during machining, which greatly reduces the number of clamping and improves the machining accuracy, quality and efficiency. The five-axis machining center has unparalleled advantages in the processing of complex workpieces.

 

CNC milling

CNC milling machine processing is based on the technical requirements of the shape, accuracy, size and surface roughness of the workpiece to determine the processing technology and processing parameters. Program the machining program into the controller and send the command to the servo. CNC milling machines can process parts with particularly complex contours or difficult to control dimensions, such as mold parts and housing parts. It has the advantages of strong adaptability, high processing precision, stable processing quality and high efficiency.

 

CNC turning

CNC turning is one of the most used machining methods in CNC machining. During CNC turning, the workpiece makes a rotary motion, and the tool moves in a straight line or a curve.
