Square BOX XBJ-9 Single Milling Head Sheet Metal Edge Milling Machine

A. Technical Brief on Square Box Mechanical Structure XBJ-9 Edge Milling Machine:

Product name of this section give figurative description on mechanical structure of the XBJ-9: It looks like a piece of square box standing on the workshop;

1. Half Closed Working Space in XBJ-9 Square Box Plate Edge Beveling Machine:

1) Structure Feature: This set of machine has the entire structure of semi-closed fashion;

2) Unlike the current standard open style gantry mechanical structure, such machine structure has its both ends of work table confined with wall boards at both sides, in the extension width of 1,500mm;

2. Additional Working Stroke Acquired in Square Box XBJ-9 Plate Edge Chamfering Machine:

1) Besides, at the two terminals of worktable intersection with wall board, there is an opening respectively, through which workpiece steel plate can be extended out of the machine wall boards;

2) Additional Edge Milling Stroke: During working, the workpiece can be maneuvered in the direction of milling cutter traveling with the convenience of these two openings, so that additional stroke of metal plate beveling can be attained in this Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine;

3) For example, in this product model of 9,000mm nominal stroke machine (Single head configuration), an actual edge milling steel plate length of 12,000mm is available;

4) The half closed mechanical structure and its opening in XBJ-9 square box Edge Milling Equipment: (Fig.1)

3. Fully Protection on Hydraulic Oil Lines of the XBJ-9 Plate Chamfering Machine:

1) The third advantage with this structure of Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine is, with its relative enclosed working area for milling unit, the largest degree of protection can be got, in terms of both safety and contamination control;

2) Effective Contamination Control: As we can see from the attached first picture, oil tubes of hydraulic station go into and out of the machine by way of a bottom hole cut in the wall board, which forms up actual separation between hydraulic pump station, with guiderails and milling cutter of the Edge Milling Machine. This is very beneficial on maintaining cleanliness of these high precision working units;

4. Higher Production Cost of the XBJ-9 Square Box Steel Plate Edge Milling Machine:

The “weak point” with such machine structure is, it has around 10% higher manufacturing cost and hence quotation compared with standard conventional gantry structure models.

B. Operation of the XBJ-9 Square Box Edge Milling Machine:

1. The attached pictures show both front side (Workpiece loading and unloading) and rear side (Milling on welding groove) in the single head model machine;

2. To get the best degree of operation convenience, control board of the Edge Milling Machine is integrated onto its milling carriage, with operating panel fit at the rear side of the milling carriage also. In this way, all the buttons and switches are within arm’s length in the process of producing welding groove. Shown as below:

The easy operation on milling head and its moving carriage: (Fig.2)

3. Welding Grooves Available: With one set of milling cutter installed, this model of XBJ-9 can only carry out tasks of milling on welding groove of upper bevels and straight, and slant edges on sheet metal;

4. How to Mill on Bottom Edge Beveling: If it is necessary to cut lower edge bevels on steel plate, the steel plate need to be overturned 180°, making its original bottom edge becoming top edge, then loaded into the machine again for the second time metal plate beveling.
