IMTS 2010 shows the future of the world machine tool development trend

The 2010 International Manufacturing Technology Exhibition (IMTS 2010), hosted by the American Manufacturing Technology Association (AMT), was recently held at the McCormick Place in Chicago, USA. The international machine tool exhibition held by IMTS and the European International Machine Tool Exhibition, Tokyo, Japan and Beijing, China, is also known as the world's four famous machine tools, which has a great impact on the industry. The United States has a leading technology and developed manufacturing industry, which gives the International Manufacturing Technology Exhibition (IMTS) a reputation for industrial development barometers and weather vanes. Under the influence of the financial crisis, the theme of this exhibition is “Enlightenment”, which shows that the organizers are dedicated to the industry's first advanced manufacturing technology event, dedicated to the inspiration of the industry's technology and wisdom, giving the impact of the financial crisis and revitalizing the industry. Confidence and strength.

1. The “Manufacturing Guide” provided by AMT during the exhibition pointed out: As a national strategy, manufacturing innovation should focus on: innovation drives economic development, innovation improves by improving efficiency; efficiency needs to be achieved through cooperation between government, industry and research institutes. Implementation; the way to achieve manufacturing innovation is to encourage the combination of public and private economy; innovation is the path to change the manufacturing recession. He also pointed out that the US government recognizes that manufacturing is the foundation that supports the vital economy of the United States and a strong national defense. The government will adopt the following guidelines:
· Encourage innovation in manufacturing technology and new products. · Ensure existing manufacturing capabilities · Improve manufacturing competitiveness in the world · Reduce manufacturing structure cost burdens · Enhance collaboration between government, research institutes and industry · Conduct smart talents Better education and training
The above "Guidelines for Manufacturing" shows that the US economy is driven by technological innovation and new measures to return to manufacturing are worthy of attention. It also has reference value for the development of China's CNC machine tool industry.

2. The Chairman of the Japan Machine Tool Association pointed out: Today's CNC machine tool technology development trend: First, the application of IT technology intelligent CNC machine tools, intelligent machine tools can improve efficiency and save labor. The second is to consider environmental and other factors, propose environmental response technology, and develop environmentally friendly green machine tools and corresponding processing methods. At present, a method for reducing the amount of machine tool replacement in Japan is being applied (Minimum Quatity Lubrication). The above development trends are reflected in the exhibits of Japanese companies in this exhibition, which is reflected in the further expansion of the application of intelligent technology, considering that environmentally friendly machine tools have begun to be launched.

3. The CNC machine tools of this exhibition presented two major characteristics: First, the technical content of the exhibits has been greatly improved, and the proportion of high-tech machine tools exhibited by major companies has increased significantly. For example, Japan's Mazak Company exhibited 20 new machine tools, including 12 composite machine tools and 5 machining centers. Daxie exhibited 12 CNC machine tools, 9 of which were turning and milling machine tools, and 6 machines with 5-axis linkage. . Second, the exhibitors emphasized the reliability, practicability, use efficiency and environmental requirements of the exhibits. This is also the urgent requirement of users for machine tool products since the financial crisis, in line with the trend of the times. Such as: MAKINO company booth marked: "The same precision and reliability, the machine is faster. Rigid and load bearing stronger" "This machine tool processing titanium alloy, the capacity is increased by 3 times, the tool life is increased by 2 times." Daxie marks “high productivity, high quality, low consumption”.

4. The integration application of industrial robots and CNC machine tools is obvious. At this exhibition, FANUC, YASKAWA, KUKA and other companies showcased the integration of various robots and machine tools. Many exhibitors have also demonstrated integrated flexible units for CNC machine tools and robots. Fanuc News has released 220,000 FANUC robot applications worldwide. Considering that China's annual output of CNC machine tools will reach 200,000 units in 2015, if 5% CNC machine tools use robots and require 10,000 robots per year, the current status of the domestic robot industry is obviously difficult to adapt.

5. Providing solutions until providing a complete solution is both an urgent requirement for users and a business philosophy for machine tools. The famous gear machine manufacturer - Gleason Corporation of the United States proposed: to provide a complete solution connotation is to provide a variety of gears (cylindrical, tapered, etc.) for rolling, shaving, boring, grinding various machine tools, tools, measuring instruments , processing technology and software. The solutions of AgieCharmilles in Switzerland include: milling, electrical machining, laser machining options, machine tool operation support (wearable parts, electrodes, wire, etc.), equipment support (spare parts, technical support and intervention services, etc.) Business support (tailoring business solutions based on user needs), automation (tools, fixtures and pallet change systems and software). The world's large tool manufacturers provide complete sets of processing tools such as automotive engine block complete processing tools, wind turbine complete sets of processing tools, etc. In short, different machine tools and tool companies have different solutions connotation, the purpose is to provide users with satisfaction service. Providing complete solutions and creating value is multi-faceted and should be an important task for Chinese machine tool companies to transform their development methods.

6. The development of composite machine tools is worthy of attention. There are three kinds of composite machine tool models in this exhibition to become the focus of the exhibition: First, the turning and milling machine tool evolved from the vertical machining center, which can be linked by five axes, its vertical spindle----X, Y, Z coordinates, Workbench---A, c turntable and integrated with the fuselage; Second, the milling machine composite machine evolved from the horizontal CNC lathe, the workpiece spindle with C axis, the tool spindle with B axis, can be linked by five axes. The third is the horizontal turning and milling machine tool developed from the horizontal machining center, which can be linked by five axes and has 1-2 exchange worktables. The first type is mainly for medium-sized specifications and is suitable for a variety of complex two-piece machining. The second and third types of machine tools are medium and large-sized specifications, and belong to the processing of large and medium-sized complex parts such as aerospace, energy, shipbuilding and engineering machinery. The combination of five-axis linkage and turning-milling is the commanding height of the directional products and technologies that major companies have developed. It is also the highlight of the exhibitions of Mazak, DMG-MORISEKI, Daxie, MAG and other major companies. In addition, some well-known professional companies such as Germany's HERMLE, Austria's WFL, Japan's Mitsui Seiki and the Swiss Stark Heckert SIP also exhibited similar models. The development of the above three kinds of composite machine tools has important reference value for the development of domestic high-end machine tools.

7. Ultra-precision machine tools are accelerating. This year's show Japan YASDA, Sodick, and Makino exhibited sub-micron ultra-precision machine tools, which is a highlight of this exhibition. With the development of IT, aerospace, medical and other industries, the demand for ultra-precision machining is becoming more and more urgent. The development of ultra-precision machining to nano-precision machining is the basis for the development of emerging strategic industries and the urgent need for national defense security. China is still lagging behind in the industrialization level of this field, and we need to do a good job of planning and speeding up implementation.

8. The virtual axis parallel machine tool was not seen in this exhibition. After more than ten years of history, the virtual axis parallel machine tool has disappeared in the world machine tool exhibition in recent years. This is the result of the user market selection. Drawing lessons from the development of the world's machine tools is also a manifestation of wisdom. This is undoubtedly a very important decision for some manufacturing companies in China that have begun to work on virtual axis parallel machines.

9. Talent and education are very important to the development of the machine tool industry. When investigating the famous gear machine tool manufacturing company, Gleason Corporation of the United States, the person in charge of the company talked about an important creed of Gleason's development, which is to attach importance to talents and education, gather talents, use talents, and cultivate talents--- - Created a century of Gleason has always been in the leading position in the world, which should be carefully used for the development of Chinese machine tool enterprises.
