3. Core CNC Machining Process for TV Prototypes
The formal CNC machining process is the core link in transforming design models into physical TV prototype parts. It needs to be carried out in strict accordance with the process steps to ensure the precision and functionality of the prototype.
3.1 Housing Machining (Screen Frame + База)
Housing machining is divided into roughing and finishing, and different parameters are set according to different materials:

3.2 Detail Machining
Detail machining is crucial to realizing the functional and decorative effects of the TV prototype, including button and interface machining, logo engraving, and heat dissipation hole machining:
- Button and Interface Machining: Use milling cutters to machine power button grooves (size matching button diameter, depth 2-3mm), volume key grooves, and drill holes for interfaces such as USB and HDMI (diameter matching interface size, positioning accuracy ±0.1mm). Ensure that buttons can be smoothly installed and interfaces are aligned with the shell.

6. Ключевые меры предосторожности при обработке прототипов телевизоров с ЧПУ
To ensure the quality and efficiency of CNC machining TV prototypes, the following key precautions must be observed:
- Точный контроль: Strictly control the tolerance of the shell (± 0,1 мм) to ensure a perfect fit between the screen frame and the acrylic sheet; the positioning accuracy of the wall-mounted holes must be controlled at ±0.05mm to avoid installation deviation. Во время обработки, Используйте координату измерительную машину (ШМ) to inspect key dimensions every 2 hours to ensure machining accuracy.
- Material Property Adaptation: During the machining of ABS/PC alloy, preheat the material to prevent stress deformation; После обработки, cool the material to room temperature before subsequent processing. When machining aluminum alloy, control the cutting temperature (use cutting fluid to cool) to avoid material hardening or deformation caused by excessive temperature.
- Оптимизация затрат: CNC machining is suitable for small-batch production (≤100 units); Для массового производства (>1000 units), it is recommended to switch to injection molding + stamping process to reduce production costs. During the design stage, simplify complex surfaces (НАПРИМЕР., replace irregular curved surfaces with regular ones) to reduce tool wear and machining time, thereby lowering machining costs.
- Safety Operation: Во время обработки, operators must wear safety glasses and gloves to avoid injury caused by flying chips; use fume extractors when spraying paint or anodizing to avoid inhaling toxic gases and protect the environment and operator health.
Точка зрения Yigu Technology
В Yigu Technology, Мы верим CNC machining is the core guarantee for creating high-quality TV prototypes. It can accurately restore the design details of TV products, whether it is the precision of ultra-thin bezels or the positioning accuracy of wall-mounted holes, and can meet the strict requirements of prototype production. When producing TV prototypes, we focus on two core points: one is material-function matching, selecting ABS/PC alloy for the shell to balance lightweight and heat resistance, and aluminum alloy for metal parts to ensure structural stability; the other is process optimization, through reasonable programming and fixture design, improving machining efficiency while ensuring accuracy. By integrating strict quality control in each link from design to post-processing, we help customers shorten the prototype development cycle by 20-30% and provide reliable support for product market verification. In the future, we will further apply intelligent technologies such as AI-driven machining parameter optimization to CNC machining, continuously improving the precision and efficiency of TV prototype production.
Часто задаваемые вопросы
- What materials are most suitable for CNC machined TV prototype shells, и почему?
The most suitable material for TV prototype shells is ABS/PC alloy. Because it has the advantages of lightweight (meeting the thin and light design requirements of TV), теплостойкость (adapting to the heat dissipation needs of internal components), and easy shaping (suitable for processing complex surfaces such as screen frames), and its machinability is good, which can ensure the smooth progress of CNC machining and the high precision of the prototype.
- Can CNC machined TV prototypes be directly used for mass production?
Нет. CNC machined TV prototypes are mainly used for design verification, market display, and small-batch customization. Для массового производства (>1000 единицы), it is recommended to switch to injection molding + процесс штамповки. Because CNC machining has high single-piece costs and low production efficiency, while injection molding can realize large-scale production at a lower cost and higher efficiency, which is more in line with the needs of mass production.
- How long does it take to produce a CNC machined TV prototype from design to assembly and testing?
The production cycle depends on the complexity of the prototype. For a simple TV prototype (with a regular screen frame and base, no complex curved surfaces), it takes about 7-10 дни, включая 2-3 days for design and 3D modeling, 2-3 days for CNC machining, 1-2 Дни для постобработки, и 1 day for assembly and testing. For a complex prototype (with ultra-thin bezels, curved screens, and multiple metal parts), the cycle may be extended to 12-15 days due to more intricate machining and testing processes.
