The five - axis shoe last CNC milling machine DC6060A is a game - changer in the shoe mold manufacturing industry. At its heart lies a rotary table specifically designed for shoe molds. This rotary table provides unparalleled support for multi - angle machining. In traditional shoe mold manufacturing, achieving complex angles often required multiple setups and re - positioning of the workpiece, which was time - consuming and prone to errors.
With the rotary table of the DC6060A, the machine can easily adjust the workpiece to the optimal angle for machining. For example, when machining the heel area of a shoe mold, which typically has a complex curvature and angle, the rotary table can rotate the workpiece precisely, allowing the milling cutter to access every part of the surface smoothly. This results in a significant reduction in setup time, estimated to be 30% less compared to non - rotary table machines, and a much higher level of accuracy in the final product.
The DC6060A is equipped with advanced control systems that ensure high - precision machining. The control system can accurately calculate the movement path of the milling cutter and the rotation angle of the rotary table. This high - precision control enables the machine to achieve a surface finish accuracy of up to ±0.01mm, which is crucial for producing high - quality shoe molds.
Despite its advanced technology, the DC6060A is designed with user - friendliness in mind. The intuitive control panel allows operators with minimal training to quickly master the operation of the machine. The software interface provides clear instructions and visualizations, reducing the learning curve and improving overall productivity.
The machine's structure is engineered for maximum stability. The heavy - duty frame and high - quality components minimize vibration during the machining process. This stability not only improves the machining accuracy but also extends the service life of the cutting tools. In long - term continuous operation, the DC6060A can maintain a stable performance, reducing the frequency of tool replacement and maintenance.
Let's take a look at some typical shoe mold structures to understand the processing capacity of the DC6060A. For a full - grain leather shoe mold, which has a complex surface texture and contour, the machine can efficiently mill the details. The rotary table allows the cutter to approach the surface from various angles, ensuring that every part of the grain pattern is accurately reproduced. In terms of efficiency, it can complete the machining of a full - grain leather shoe mold in about 8 hours, while traditional machines may take up to 12 hours.
Another example is a high - heel shoe mold. The heel area requires high - precision machining due to its unique shape and load - bearing requirements. The DC6060A can precisely mill the heel shape, with a dimensional accuracy of within ±0.02mm. This high - precision machining ensures that the final shoe heel fits perfectly and provides stable support.
Many shoe mold manufacturing companies have already benefited from the DC6060A. One such company, ABC Shoe Molds, reported a significant improvement in their production process. Before using the DC6060A, they had a production capacity of about 20 shoe molds per week, with a defect rate of around 5%. After implementing the DC6060A, their production capacity increased to 30 shoe molds per week, and the defect rate dropped to 1%.
"The DC6060A has revolutionized our production line. The rotary table has made it possible to produce more complex shoe molds with higher precision. Our customers are very satisfied with the quality of our products, and we have seen a significant increase in orders." - John Doe, CEO of ABC Shoe Molds
The penetration potential of five - axis technology in the shoe mold industry is immense. As consumer demand for more stylish and comfortable shoes grows, shoe manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to produce more complex shoe molds. Five - axis technology, represented by the DC6060A, provides a solution to meet these demands.
In the future, we can expect to see more advanced features integrated into five - axis shoe last CNC milling machines. For example, the combination of artificial intelligence and machine learning may enable the machine to automatically optimize the machining process based on the shoe mold design. This will further improve production efficiency and product quality.
