Non-traditional processing technologies refer to those processing methods that are significantly different from traditional machining methods, including EDM, laser processing, ultrasonic processing, etc. In micro precision machining, these non-traditional machining technologies can play an extremely important role.
For special materials or small and tiny parts, it is difficult to achieve fine processing by traditional mechanical cutting. Non-traditional processing technologies, such as EDM and laser processing, can overcome this limitation and realize fine engraving of tiny components or special materials. For example, laser processing can use high-energy beams to process metal or non-metal materials, so as to realize the processing of small parts.
The processing accuracy of non-traditional processing technology is generally higher than that of traditional machining, and the processing speed is faster. For example, laser processing can process multiple points at the same time, thereby greatly improving processing efficiency. At the same time, EDM can also improve processing efficiency through multi-electrode.
In traditional mechanical processing, due to gaps, wear, and thread friction, the shape and accuracy of the workpiece often have certain deviations. Non-traditional processing technology can better control processing parameters, such as laser processing, which can achieve high-precision laser beam focusing and scanning on the surface of the object to achieve ideal processing effects, making the shape of the workpiece more refined and the surface smoother.
In micro machining service, precision is crucial. Non-traditional machining techniques can achieve fine cutting with low cutting force, resulting in higher cutting accuracy. For example, laser processing, electric discharge machining, and other technologies have very little removal of materials, and will not have a great impact on the accuracy of materials.
Traditional processing techniques usually use large machine tools for material handling, which consumes a lot of energy and generates a lot of debris and waste. Non-traditional processing technology uses light beams, electric currents, electric sparks, etc. to finely process materials. This process consumes a relatively small amount of energy and does not leave waste, which has the advantages of energy saving and environmental protection.
To sum up, in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and energy saving, non-traditional processing technology plays an important role in micro precision machining. And the development of non-traditional technology in this field is also constantly making breakthroughs. In the future, it will more completely meet the needs of thin, light, and miniaturized products, and promote the development of the field of micro precision machining.
