Vertical machining center refers to a machining center with the spindle in a vertical state. Its structure is mostly a fixed column, the worktable is rectangular, and there is no indexing rotation function. It is suitable for processing discs, sleeves and plate parts. Coordinate axis, and a rotary table that rotates along the horizontal axis can be installed on the working table to process spiral parts.

The vertical machining center is easy to install, easy to operate, easy to observe the processing situation, easy to debug procedures, and widely used. However, due to the limitation of the height of the column and the tool changer, parts that are too high cannot be processed. When machining the cavity or the concave surface, the chips are not easy to be discharged. .

2) Horizontal machining center

 Horizontal machining center refers to a machining center with a horizontal spindle, usually with an automatic indexing rotary table, which generally has 3 to 5 motion coordinates. It is common to have three linear motion coordinates plus one rotary motion coordinate After the card is installed at one time, the processing of the remaining four surfaces except the installation surface and the top surface is completed. It is most suitable for adding box-type parts. Compared with the vertical machining center, the horizontal machining center can easily remove chips during processing, which is beneficial to the processing, but the structure is complicated.
