- Preparación de materiales: Crudo copper stock (bars, hojas, or blocks) is cut to size and inspected for purity, ensuring it meets the chosen copper material specifications.
- Configuración de la máquina: Technicians mount the copper onto the CNC machine, calibrar herramientas (p.ej., ejercicios, fresas finales), and test program parameters to avoid overheating— a key concern with copper’s high thermal conductivity.
- Core Machining Operations: The machine executes specialized machining techniques for copper:
- Milling: Shaping flat or curved surfaces with high-speed tools to prevent material warping.
- Torneado: Creating cylindrical parts with precise diameters, using coolant to manage heat.
- Perforación: Making holes with tight tolerances, ideal for electrical connectors.
