In what aspects does the precision of a precision shearing machine lie?

The precision of a precision shearing machine is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

I. Cutting Accuracy

1. Blade Edge Accuracy

The cutting edges of the precision shearing machine's tools are precisely ground and processed, possessing extremely high linearity and flatness. The gap between the upper and lower blades can be precisely adjusted, generally reaching micrometer-level accuracy. For example, for high-precision thin plate shearing, the blade gap can be controlled between 0.02-0.05mm. This fine gap control ensures that the plate receives uniform shearing force during the shearing process, resulting in a flat and smooth cutting surface, reducing deformation and burrs.

2. Positioning Accuracy

Precision shearing machines are equipped with high-precision positioning systems. During plate feeding, the feeding position of the plate is precisely controlled through high-precision roller devices and linear guides. For example, some advanced shearing machines use servo motor-driven feeding systems, with positioning accuracy reaching within ±0.1mm. Simultaneously, in controlling the shearing length, a high-precision encoder and CNC system precisely set and control the shearing length, with minimal error, meeting the needs of high-precision processing.

3. Repeatability

Whether it's a single shear or batch shearing operation, precision shearing machines ensure high repeatability. This is due to their stable mechanical structure and precise control system. The execution of each shearing action, including the descending speed of the tool and the application of shearing force, maintains high consistency. For example, when continuously shearing plates of the same size, the dimensional deviation after shearing can be controlled within a very small range, such as ±0.05mm, which is very important for companies that need to mass-produce high-precision parts.

II. Control System Aspects

1. CNC System Accuracy

Precision shearing machines usually adopt advanced CNC systems, which can precisely control various parameters during the shearing process. For example, operators can precisely input shearing length, shearing quantity, and shearing speed parameters on the CNC system's operating interface. The CNC system will precisely drive the actuators such as motors and hydraulic systems according to the input instructions. Its control accuracy can reach a high level, such as the control accuracy of the shearing speed can reach ±0.01m/s, thus ensuring the accuracy and quality of plate shearing.

2. Automated Control Accuracy

Many precision shearing machines have highly automated control systems, capable of performing a series of operations such as automatic feeding, automatic positioning, and automatic shearing. During automatic feeding, the system can precisely control the feed rate of the plate according to preset parameters. Moreover, during automatic shearing, it can accurately judge the shearing timing, ensuring that each shearing action is performed at the optimal moment. For example, through the cooperation of photoelectric sensors and the control system, the position of the plate can be precisely detected. When the plate reaches the preset shearing position, the system can precisely control the tool to shear, with minimal error.

III. Mechanical Structure and Manufacturing Process Aspects

1. Machine Body Structural Stability

The body of a precision shearing machine is usually made of high-strength steel or cast iron, and is precisely processed and assembled. The machine body structure is reasonably designed, with sufficient rigidity and stability, capable of withstanding the enormous shearing force during the shearing process, and will not deform during long-term operation. For example, some large precision shearing machines use a gantry structure, enhancing the rigidity of the machine body through reinforcing ribs, ensuring that the machine body does not twist or shake when shearing thick plates, thus ensuring shearing accuracy.

2. Transmission System Accuracy

The transmission system of a precision shearing machine, whether mechanical transmission (such as gears, screw transmission) or hydraulic transmission, has high accuracy. In mechanical transmission, the gears are manufactured with high precision, meshing tightly, precisely transmitting power, reducing gaps and errors during transmission. For hydraulic transmission systems, the oil pump, oil cylinder, and other components are processed with high precision, precisely controlling the movement of the tool. For example, the matching precision between the piston and cylinder of the hydraulic cylinder is very high, ensuring that the tool moves smoothly and accurately during up and down movement.
