CNC lathes and turning-milling centers require turrets, and there are usually two common types of turrets: servo turrets and power turrets (power tool). Although they are very similar in principle, in practice there are distinct differences between them. This article will introduce the difference between servo turret and power turret in detail.
Generally speaking, the power turret can be equipped with turning tools and milling cutters, so it can be used for both turning and milling. It is a combination of turning and milling in the true sense. It is a power turret that integrates turning and milling. It belongs to CNC The turret for turning and milling compound machine tools includes a box body, and a motor is installed in the box body. The motor includes a motor stator and a motor rotor. One end of the shaft is connected with a clutch. The clutch includes a clutch movable gear and a clutch fixed gear. The clutch movable gear is connected with the hollow spline shaft. The clutch movable gear can move along the axial direction of the hollow spline shaft, and the clutch is fixed. The gear transmission is connected with a transmission shaft, and the transmission shaft passes through the hollow spline shaft, and the other end of the transmission shaft is connected with the spiral bevel gear; one end of the box body is connected with a cutter head for relative rotation, and a rotary cutter is installed on the cutter head, and the rotary cutter The side transmission is connected with a second transmission shaft, and the other end of the second transmission shaft is transmission connected with a second spiral bevel gear, and the second spiral bevel gear meshes with the spiral bevel gear.
The hydraulic turret can only install turning tools, and has no power function, so it is only suitable for turning. This is the essential difference.
1. Servo turret
Servo turrets are small motor systems that use a feedback mechanism to provide more precise position control. These systems usually consist of a motor, encoder and controller. The encoder reads the position of the rotor of the motor, and the controller controls the output of the motor according to the encoder reading.
The main characteristics of the servo system are its high precision and stability. Due to its good position control capability, it is widely used in applications requiring high-precision positioning or accurate speed control. For example, in semiconductor manufacturing, turrets that require precise positioning often use servo turrets.
2. Power turret
A power turret is a more powerful motor system, usually consisting of a motor, a reducer, and a controller. These systems are generally suitable for applications requiring higher speed and higher power output. Because powered turrets have higher RPM and more torque, they are generally able to do more work in less time.
The main features of powered turrets are their high speed and high power output. Due to higher speed and torque, it is widely used in applications requiring high speed and high power. For example, on an automated production line, powered turrets are often used for larger workpieces, more complex shapes and more time-consuming operations.
3. The difference between servo turret and power turret
The difference between servo turrets and powered turrets lies in their design goals and application fields. Servo turrets are primarily used in applications that require high-precision positioning or accurate speed control, while powered turrets are primarily used in applications that require higher speeds and higher power outputs. Therefore, the advantage of a servo turret lies in its high precision and stability, while the advantage of a powered turret lies in its high speed and high power output.
Servo hydraulic turret: The servo hydraulic turret is locked and controlled by servo rotating hydraulic oil. It does not have a power head, and it can only be used for cutting. In contrast, the power turret has higher precision and better efficiency. , the price is slightly higher than the hydraulic turret, but its super high cost performance has occupied the main position in the market. Many mechanical manufacturing and processing centers have popularized the use of servo-driven power turrets, and its high-speed tool change advantages far exceed those of servo hydraulic drives. turret.
In general, servo turrets and power turrets are very important types of turrets, and they play an important role in different application scenarios. When choosing a turret, it is necessary to choose the appropriate type of turret according to the specific needs of the application.
