Types of Large-scale Mold Processing Equipment: Wanjun Large-scale Mold Processing Turning Centers evolved from lathes, primarily focusing on the machining of shaft parts. Besides turning and boring, these centers can also perform drilling, milling, and tapping at any location on the end face and circumference. These processing centers are equipped with tool magazines that can hold 4-12 tools, conventionally referred to as turning centers.

Numerical control (NC) machining centers developed from general NC machines. They constitute a type of NC machine with an automatic tool changer, achieved by adding a tool magazine and an automatic tool changer to a regular NC machine, further advancing towards automation and high efficiency.

The distinction between NC machining centers and general NC machines is that after a single setup of the workpiece, the NC device can automatically control the machine to change tools and continuously perform multiple operations such as milling (turning), boring, drilling, reaming, and tapping on various surfaces of the workpiece. Most of these machines are primarily focused on boring and milling, mainly used for machining box-type parts. Compared to regular NC machines, they offer the following advantages:

a. Reduced number of machines, easier management, and recycling of waste tin; for parts with multiple processes, only one machine is needed to complete all processing, reducing the inventory of semi-finished products;

b. Due to only one setup of the workpiece, positioning errors caused by multiple setups are reduced, ensuring processing quality through machine precision;

c. Centralized processes reduce auxiliary time, improving productivity;

d. Since multiple processes can be completed in one setup on a single machine, the quantity of special-purpose fixtures is greatly reduced, further shortening production preparation time.

Due to the many advantages of NC machining centers, they are highly welcomed by users and hold an important position in the production of NC machines.
