Why CNC processing is crucial to the robot industry
Nowadays, robots seem to be everywhere - they are used in movies, airports, food production, and even in factories that manufacture other robots. Robots have many different functions and uses. As their manufacture becomes easier and cheaper, they become more and more common in industry. With the increasing demand for robot technology, robot manufacturers need to keep up, and one of the basic methods of manufacturing robot parts is CNC machining. This article will learn more about robot standard parts and why CNC machining is so important for manufacturing robots.

CNC machining is customized for robots
First, CNC machining can produce parts with extremely fast lead times. Almost after you have prepared the 3D model, you can start to use the CNC machine to make components. This makes it possible for rapid iteration of prototypes and rapid delivery of customized robot components for professional applications.

Another advantage of CNC machining is that it can accurately produce parts that meet the specifications. This kind of manufacturing precision is particularly important for robot technology, because dimensional precision is the key to manufacturing high-performance robots. Precision CNC machining keeps the tolerance within+/-0.0002 inches, and this part allows the robot to perform precise and repeatable motions.
Surface finish is another reason for using CNC machining to produce robotic parts. Interacting parts need to have low friction, and precision CNC machining can produce surface roughness as low as Ra 0.8 μ M, or lower after polishing. In contrast, die-casting (before any finishing) usually produces close to 5 μ M surface roughness. Metal 3D printing produces a rougher surface finish.
Finally, the type of material used by the robot is the ideal material for CNC machining. Robots need to be able to move and lift objects stably, and they need solid and hard materials. These necessary properties are best achieved by processing certain metals and plastics. In addition, robots are usually used for customization or small batch manufacturing, which makes CNC machining a natural choice for robot parts.

Types of robot parts manufactured by CNC
With so many possible functions, many different types of robots have evolved. Several main types of robots are commonly used. The single arm of an articulated robot has multiple joints, which many people have seen. There is also SCARA (Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm) robot, which can move things between two parallel planes. SCARAs have high vertical stiffness because their motion is horizontal. The Delta robot's joints are at the bottom, which keeps the arm light and able to move quickly. Finally, a gantry or Cartesian robot has linear actuators that move 90 degrees to each other. Each of these robots has different structures and different applications, but there are usually five main components that make up the robot.

There are several main types of robots commonly used. The single arm of an articulated robot has multiple joints, which many people have seen. There are also SCARA (Selective Compliant Joint Manipulator) robots, which can move objects between two parallel planes. SCARAs have high vertical stiffness because their motion is horizontal. The delta robot's joints are located on the base, which keeps the arm light and able to move quickly. Finally, gantry or Cartesian robots have linear actuators that move 90 degrees to each other. Each of these robots has different structures and different applications, but usually has five main components:

1. Mechanical arm
Robotic arms are very different in form and function, so many different parts need to be used. However, they have one thing in common, that is, they can move objects or operate on objects - just like human arms! The different parts of the robot arm are even named after our own parts: the shoulder, elbow and wrist joints rotate and control the movement of each part.

2. End actuator
The end effector is an attachment connected to the end of the robot arm. The end effector allows you to customize the functions of the robot according to different operations without building a new robot. They can be holders, grabs, vacuum cleaners or suction cups. These end effectors are usually metal (usually aluminum) CNC machined parts. One of the components is permanently connected to the end of the robot arm. The actual gripper, suction cup or other end effector is matched with the component, so it can be controlled by the robot arm. This setup with two different components makes it easier to replace different end effectors, so the robot can adapt to different applications. You can see this in the figure below. The bottom disc will be bolted to the robot arm so that you can connect the hose for operating the suction cup to the air supply unit of the robot. Top and bottom discs are examples of CNC machined parts

FAQ:
Q: Is your company committed to the concept of total quality management?
A: Yes, no matter bending, laser cutting or CNC processing, workers will conduct first sample inspection and random inspection during processing to ensure product quality.
Q: How many inspections should be carried out for a project?
A: Generally speaking, the following four inspections will be carried out for products: incoming inspection, first production inspection, sampling inspection and pre shipment inspection. Among them, multiple sampling inspections will be conducted.
Q: Can you review the drawings with our engineering team and provide a quick estimate of the changes required?
A: Yes, our engineers are quick. If there is anything in the product that needs to be modified, we can give you a new price immediately after you tell us
