The Application of CNC Technology in the Automotive Industry

20-04-2023

CNC machine tool processing has advantages such as high precision and automation, which determine what applications it can be used for. However, almost all industries require CNC machine tools to process parts, and multi axis CNC machines are very suitable for processing some extremely complex parts. Due to the fact that CNC machine tools can handle almost any type of material, their applications are very extensive.

What automotive parts can CNC machine tools process

1. Engine components

CNC machine tool machining (including CNC milling, CNC turning, electric discharge wire cutting, and other processes) can be used to manufacture several important components of automotive internal combustion engines. For example, a large aluminum alloy cylinder block can be machined into an engine cylinder block (or cylinder block), which consists of an engine cylinder and a moving piston that moves up and down in the cylinder.


2. Precision components in the gearbox

The gearbox is a crucial transmission mechanism in automobiles, with a large number of gears and shaft components. Nowadays, in high-quality automobile manufacturing, all gears and shaft workpieces in gearboxes can be directly manufactured through CNC machine tools. It has significant advantages in machining high-precision mechanical parts such as gears. Nowadays, gear shaping, shaving, and hobbing processes are often used to manufacture them. Therefore, they have high machining accuracy and high production efficiency. After the shaft is processed into a stepped shaft, there are machining processes such as milling keyways and drawing splines, greatly improving the fitting accuracy. After casting the gearbox housing, the end face and shaft holes must be milled on a CNC machining center machine tool, which can ensure the spacing between the shafts.


3. Other parts

CNC machine tools can process several other automotive parts, including but not limited to suspension components, exhaust components, carburetor housings, fluid system components, bushings, and valve seats. Manufacturing technology is also particularly useful for customizing vehicles and their specific automotive components, as CAD allows for rapid changes in part design and manufacturing of customized parts.


Advantages of using CNC machine tools in the automotive industry:

Compared with manual machine tools, CNC machine tools have a significant advantage in the manufacturing of automotive parts, which is their processing speed and particularly short delivery time during small-scale production. Due to the fact that processing is carried out automatically by computers, there is no need to consider fatigue and other limiting factors in the process.
