Basic knowledge of the engraving path of woodworking engraving machine
When engraving a workpiece using a CNC wood engraving machine, the engraving is divided into two-dimensional engraving and three-dimensional engraving; the drilling is divided into points, contours and area drilling. We also provide the function of the badge cutting line. Below we introduce you to some related terms and methods of engraving when using CNC engraving machines for engraving. Shandong Zhongke CNC reminds you to master the following basic engraving performance before using CNC engraving machine equipment.
1. Inscriptions and inscriptions
The so-called "intaglio" means that the engraved material leaves a concave text or pattern.
The so-called "yang engraving" means: after engraving, what remains on the engraving material is a convex text or pattern, commonly known as a positive or positive image.
2, carving depth
"Engraving depth" refers to the maximum depth of machining. In three-dimensional engraving, the depth of the engraving path changes continuously as the shape of the machined shape changes.
3, layered engraving
“Layered engraving” appearing in 2D, 3D, cutting, and image engraving, each time the infeed does not exceed [ ] mm”, indicating the maximum depth of each tool entering the material, and the experience of the harder material. The value is multi-layered and engraved to complete the engraving depth of the design.
4, mosaic path
The so-called "inlay" is a design figure. After the inscription and the inscription, the two parts are called the female and the male mold respectively; the two molds can be buckled together without gaps. Considering the influence of the tool, one of the "inlaid paths" must be selected when calculating the engraving path.
5, tool compensation
During the machining process, the tool itself has a cutting width, and after the “tool compensation”, the influence of the tool edge width on the machining effect can be automatically eliminated.
6, the direction of rotation when hooking
When cutting and milling, select the appropriate direction of the hook to make the side of the processed object smoother.
7, milling method
In 2D and 3D path calculations, milling is a common way of machining, that is, milling the free parts of an object or text. Commonly used milling methods are: horizontal milling bottom, vertical milling bottom, forward 45 degree milling bottom, reverse 45 degree milling bottom, circular milling bottom, but no matter which method is chosen, the result is the same, the difference is only The route the tool walks during machining.
8, tool selection
When processing objects of different materials and hardnesses, in order to ensure the processing efficiency and ensure the processing effect, it is necessary to select a suitable machining tool. Users can set and name their own commonly used tools.
