How to process Microphones with CNC lathe Machine?

CNC lathe processing of microphone models belongs to precision machining. Usually, the microphone shell is often made of metal materials such as aluminum alloy and stainless steel, which have good strength and texture. The microphone rod is generally made of metal or plastic. Plastic materials such as ABS engineering plastics have the characteristics of low cost and easy molding. The following are some key steps and precautions in the process of CNC lathe machine processing microphones:

Turning shape: Install the microphone model on the spindle of the CNC lathe, control the movement trajectory of the tool through programming, and turn the microphone model externally to obtain the basic shape of the microphone, such as cylinder, cone, etc. For microphones with special shape requirements, complex contour turning is also required.

Drilling and boring: Use drill bits and boring tools to process mounting holes, ventilation holes, etc. on the microphone shell or other parts. When drilling, pay attention to controlling the speed and feed rate of the drill bit to ensure the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the hole. Boring is used to further improve the accuracy and finish of the hole. The surface roughness of microphones processed by Shanghai ANTISHICNC Company’s CNC lathe reaches Ra0.4-Ra0.1μm, obtaining a smooth surface and improving the texture and appearance quality of the microphone.

Cutting and slotting: According to the design requirements, use cutting tools to cut on the microphone, such as cutting the microphone stem into a suitable length, or opening a specific shape of slots on the shell to meet assembly or functional requirements.

Thread processing: If the microphone needs to be installed with nuts, bolts and other connectors, threads need to be processed in the corresponding parts. Threading can be done with a thread turning tool or a tap, and it is necessary to ensure that the thread profile, pitch and accuracy meet the requirements.

Since the size of the microphone is relatively small, the diameter of the ordinary microphone is 5-10mm and the length does not exceed 200mm, you can choose the H36 flat lathe of SHANGHAI ANTISHICNC company. The model reference is as follows:
