Application of TORRIVE High performance Variable Frequency Drive Products in CNC machine tool

Introduction A machine tool is a processing machinery, typically used to manufacture and fabricate various kinds of devices and machine parts, which is known as the “mother of machinery”, also called “machining center”. Generally speaking, a machine tool can be powered by a variety of sources. When machine tool powers on, it is able to move solid materials and perform various operations such as cutting, milling and drilling, etc. by physical and chemical force or other methods. In the cutting process of computed numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools, a high level processing precision is essential.

By the development of technology,product performance and precision are gradually enhanced. Therefore, product amount and product quality are discussed as important causes during the process of the production. To implement these two objectives, the requirements of high-precision and high-efficiency CNC machine tools become more and more urgent and important. Not only the cutting performance, mechanical stiffness, cutter, speed of spindle and controller performance.

Function

In general CNC systems, the processing and component design are highly automated using CAD/CAM programs. The programs produce a computer file that includes profile and cutter path and generate NC processing code via straight line and arc,and loaded into the CNC machine tool. In CNC machine tool, it will be interpreted to the corresponding programs by M-code and G-code and then converted to pulse or analog voltage command to drive the servo system so as to control the CNC machine tool for production accurately. For that reason, a high-resolution and high-performance servo system which is able to complete complex and precise production is the basic and very critical required.


Conclusion

No matter in the traditional industry or the high and new technology industry, servo motor plays an important role. With the development of technology, more and more companies emphasize the importance of product exquisiteness and processing position. Therefore, the requirements of frequency response and positioning precision on servo system become more and more critical as well. Especial the high-speed and frequent acceleration and deceleration operation, some customers even require the pulse command frequency could be less than 10pulses within 10ms and the encoder resolution should be higher than one million.Torrive high performance series is the ultimate servo system which is able to provide the excellent motion control functionality and fulfill any demanding requirement from CNC machine tool completely.  In the near feature, it is obvious that Torrive’s high performance series will be more popular and more prevalent, and widely used in the industry of CNC machine tool.
