Next is the German representative 5-axis CNC machining Cost NT$ 100 million Hi guys! Welcome to my I'm Seriou Taiwan’s machine tools are so powerful and must be permitted for export by Government Taiwan’s machine tools industry is known as the legendary strategic high-tech commodities in the world In this episode, we are going to introduce CNC (computer numerical control). Yep! CNC is an acronym that stands for Computer Numerical Control Is that correct? Numerical There's a new recruit in our company, a American basketball player Let's ask him how to pronounce CNC correctly Computer Numerical Control It sounds like an English dictionary
hurry up and do your homework Bascically CNC is the abbreviation for computer numerical control. So,
when you watch some videos about machining on the internet For example, grab something to turning or milling Does not mean the machine has turning, milling, or drilling
26
00:00:43,043 --> 00:00:44,310
can be called CNC One of a key point of CNC is it has to be electronically controlled In other words It does not mean that you have to use CNC machine to do turning, milling, and drilling For example, in Taiwan's industry, when you take a look at basic machining tools
33
00:00:56,456 --> 00:00:57,824
There is a platform on the machine and it is able to bend and turn It has an X axis and Y axis to move Although there is a optical ruler on it it cannot be called CNC In the process of iron-working industry CNC is also known as a subtractive processing engineering That is to say When casting it turn a liquid metal into a mold But CNC is not like this, Normally, you can take an aluminum block, a iron block, or a block wood to do processing. and it will be shaped by subtracting material First of all, take this black stuff for example It's originally a iron block Then, what in my hand is one of the CNC axis and this axis When I started turning it will slowly shape the material into what you want Of course there are many axes in a CNC machine It's like a symphony Get one more axis is like get one more instrument So the 3-axis CNC is like a small band and the 5-axis CNC is like big band (orchestra) You're going to assemble all of the axes. The more axes, te more difficult to do processing So the subtractive processing of CNC is not like Casting or 3D printing or other processing It's completely different and CNC it is also the most used in the substrative processing industry in Taiwan or in the world Like the construction of the watch wheel frame, screw, spindle of motor bike hubs, cylinders a sole mold of a cool shoe what a pleasant smell XD It's new...It smells like new one. And in the CNC industry Actually, you can learn how to use CNC in one to two years And after three years, you will become a veteran Basically, if you are a beginner to CNC your salary is probably between 30,000 to 60,000 NTD If you're not a beginner your salary can range from 300,000 to 800,000 NTD what cause this difference? like you make a thing whether you can file a patent on it or not
87
00:02:29,015 --> 00:02:31,317
Or maybe you want to make it for OEM Then it will cause different salary like I have a friend can get 800,000 NTD per month and he lives in the Neihu District of Taipei City ^%$#@%&!+(&^@*)@!%^*#%@ He is single as well How to do CNC? Let's talk about an engineer first He use CAD to write software and use CAM to automate a manufacturing process like turning, milling, and so on. and Finally generate CNC machining programs bascially, if the machining program can work with no accident, no error or other problems The CNC program is complete By far Do you guys have a basic understanding of CNC? So, today our invisible factory series will take you to see a company Their machine tools are restricted by government, if they want to export to a specific country
Also their machine tools are categorize as the national military weapon in the world A long time ago It's just a small factory with a size of four square feet But now, the company becomes one of the greatest machine tools company in Taiwan Let's check it out! 話若是講透支啊 目屎是揮莫離啊 話若是講透支啊 目屎是揮莫離啊 When it comes to the development of CNC there is no doubt that you need to know machine tools machine tools play an important role in industrial manufacturing. If your company manufactures products without machine tools you cannot produce components and manufacturing equipment Therefore, machine tool is also called mother of machinery in the industrial society and a screw is also known as the rice of industry. and the machinery industry is also known as the mother of industry When it comes to the mother of industry You have to talk about the industrial revolution At the time,Watt invented the steam engine, and it drove to the industrial revolution This is what people think When the first steam engine was invented it cannot sove the problem of a large tolerance between the cylinder and the piston Thus, the development of steam engine did not drive the industrial revolution at the time. In 1775 John Wilkins invented boring machine And because of his invention He changed the tolerance from centimeters to a few millimeters move to the year of 1776 The real new type of the steam engine was officially invented and put on the market That is to say The industrial revolution plays an important role in how to make high precision product and talk about high precision product Taiwan is the best Firstly, Let's define what a machine tool is The so-called machine tool is a large machine for handling or machining metal or other rigid materials,
147
00:04:14,354 --> 00:04:17,223
usually by cutting, boring, grinding, shearing, or other forms of deformation all of them can be called a machine tool and this one in front of me is the shaper from 1954 take a look at this shaper it reflect the entire history of Taiwanese industrial evolution The shaper only has single-edge so it can only do undirectional and linear cutting The shaper only has one function and its processing speed is quite slow so it has been replaced by milling machine or CNC machining center or the compound machine When it comes to the trditional machine tools You can't forget this lathe which manufactured in 1961 The so-called lathe is to clamp components in the center and then it goes through with high-speed rotation And this one it can generate high speed, it's about a few hundred rotation per minute it's equal to 1/10 rotation of electric power drill If you want to know more about the evolution and history of the lathe You can take a look at the video (Link above) This machine is driven by belts That is to say You can use a lot of belts with one motor to drive many machine simultaneously over the last five decades in Taiwan the motor had been evolving and progressing and about the motor We will shoot another episode and explain it to you guys Take a look at this historical photos The machine tool which was displayed in the Science and Technology Museum is an earlier model At the time, it cost around 10,000 NTD check the invoice Take a look at this one It's actually a late model which was produce by the company What's next Taiwanese history kept evolving let's move to 1950s What happened in 1950s? Korean war broke out The first computer appeared The White Terror DIOR put the first set of women's clothing on the market The first CNC machine tool was invented It shows CNC on the machine It shows CNC on the machine but it only has NC function at the time, not everyone knows what CNC is Don't care that much the so-called NC it is to use numerical value to operate the working machine then convert the processing program into symbols and values Then make a program table and use the punching machine to punch item by item then put it back to the server of machine tool At the time, its production quantity can be increased and is is sutiable for processing complex work pieces And this one Probably is from the period of instruction the intermediate transition point and variants to the digital age You can imagine the previous instruction like a music box it has a band that looks like a coding and there is a paper tape on it that looks like punched by punching machine when it ran to the machine It goes through different instructions with different holes and then generate a different command and in this period Taiwan's industry moved to the NC era In other words, NC can help you to process every work piece even more accurate and precise and can be mass-produced guess how much is it? it cost around 1 million NTD That is, you can buy a house at the time __
next move to 1984 In 1984 I haven't born yet The TNS-2 had appeared and what about the TNS-2 it was the most computerized model At the time, the computer was still using DOS Many of things we were typing were scripts It was like living in the era of MOTOROLA NOKIA, and Sony Ericsson If you want to type words It's not as popular and unified as it is now so, if you want to use NOKIA to type Chinese alphabet You might hit A three times Then 7 hits six times and you can follow this way to go all the way to the current CAM program and this one was the most computerized model at the time the price of this machine was about 1.4 million NTD and its biggest advance is the emergence of the turret Because of the turret it make production even faster and have stronger chip removal ability Of course, you have to spend more than one million NTD to buy a CNC Now, we are going to be unboxing the production lines of Victor Taichung This is the visit corridor of Taichung Precision Machinery Victor Taichung is one of the most popular factor that most of our fans would like to know Victor Taichung was founded in 1954 At the time, the size of the factory was only four square feet. But now
258
00:07:54,774 --> 00:07:56,442
The size of their factory has almost ten thousand sqaure feet.
259
00:07:59,278 --> 00:08:01,914
I got a bottle of water(pronunciation similar to sqaure feet in Chinese) Now I have four XD We've just seen some old machines Actually, within ten years CNC has progressed to be so huge and so beautiful When it comes to CNC People may say this one is cut by CNC, this thing is made by CNC So, what exactly Victor Taichung is doing?
Do you know what's the best part of the factory? Humans defeated the computer with this game of chess No! These chess are made by CNC So, what exactly Victor Taichung is doing? It is the company that manufactures the main body of this CNC machine Look at this one, VC AX630 I have a dream that I would like to put a CNC machine in my factory They are using the machine to cut aluminium product Then, next to the machine there is a control panel You can see that it has X axis, Y axis, and Z axis You can know which direction it is turning, its location Then what is the momentum of its movement Now You also can go through with CAM to simulate Your knife will not hit together or any other dangers It is not like the old machine We only can rely on old experience to judge AX380 This should be the best selling among their five axis machines It is little one What work pieces it can process is about 400x200 in other words, the work piece which is 40cm times 20cm you can put on the machine with this scale Normlly,when you are using machine to cut something It should be sprayed with cutting fluid But for the convenience of our shooting
299
00:09:26,999 --> 00:09:29,001
the company put it at risk which may cause the risk of breaking the knife I would like to buy one and put in my work office
303
00:09:35,875 --> 00:09:37,343
So I can just press start at night before going to bed and it will finish in the morning If I do not offer year-end bonus to my employees I will have money to buy one XD Now let's see the Japanese machine Yasda horizontal turning center It cost around 30 million NTD which is a high-end product, like GTR Does everyone notice that it is weird the comapny have ability to manufacuture CNC machine but they still need to buy a Japanese machine to manufacuture their product Actually, Yasda has a very powerful function Its constant temperature and humidity It can even keep the coolant inside In other words There is a design of fluid mechanics in it When this machine starts to run It needs to run all day And in this day It needs to let the temperature of the coolant in it Adjust to their suitable temperature for processing So when they are processing They spray its coolant in both directions This thing can keep you working Your accuracy will not change due to the thermal expansion and contraction of the temperature So everyone from here all the way The whole range that we have walked It's all by Yasuda machine At now you may ask
In the early Taiwanese industry Many things are done in a cooperative way For example, the sheet metal is the A factory, and the casting is the B factory Turning and milling is the C factory It is the best part of this company The company hopes that they can control the precision of the sheet metal It can even control the precision of casting by itself So all of them are made one-stop you must think tme company is already very powerful Next, let me take you to see the hundreds of millions of CNC the mythical beasts and the German machine Five axis turning machine Waco This one is imported all the way from Germany At that time, when their entire container came to Taiwan I heard there was a full case of German beer and now This processing machine is not on the second floor it is I am on the second floor of this machine Waco's five-axis processing machine is equipped to make aerospace parts The entire structure of the machine is an oil static pressure system to maintain its accuracy now take everyone into the CNC from the console area of the computer Inside the machine see this is my real person ratio see this is my real person ratio put on the the workpiece we just cut look at the drill bit it is as big as my fists Then see the small gate It is the action of changing the knife So it can be adjusted just above A 30-degree side turning mill You can imagine that It is a bigger CNC machine you look before So it can be imagined that we are probably in the belly of the entire CNC right now and where we are It’s like you are working on the turntable of the drill floor crazy right? It probably the biggest CNC machine I've ever seen so far and it cost one hundred million NTD it is going to exchange the work piece The base of the lathe we are now inside has been turned Then everyone can take a look all the way This is the whole structure of CNC it is the base of the lathe That is how the machine cut the work piece So you just needs to earn 100 million NTD you can make Gundam at home Shouldn't be a problem Everyone can look at the left It's all the position of the knife Let's open the door for everyone to take a look to see how it change the knife Everyone sees the slide rail below Is there an enlarged version like the one we shot in Tainan Goldware? Now it's time to change the knife Now it’s the M8 tapping knife Wow~ it is the inside of the WACO 5 axis machine So coooooooool look at the outside This box is the toolbox that came with the engineer at that time to install this CNC it spend 4 months I heard that they imported German beer as well Germans come to work How can they work without German beer? But the German beer was almost out of stock what to do after drink all of the beer buy coke (pronunciation is similar to make love in chinese) every day buy coke (make love) Germans come to Taiwan to buy coke (make love) German engineers buy coke (make love) in Taiwan We have already seen the most expensive machine tools What's next? It should be selling a whole production line to you what is selling a whole production line to you? As you can see from this window, there are V4.3 and V4.4 First The blue part on the left You can think of it as a cargo hold For example, today we are going to produce a trolley The trolley contains wheels Contains the board and a grip Then they will insert the materials in each blue part separately Then it will automatically transfer Then use your arm to hold your grip and install your wheel and install on your pad you can call that V4.3 The difference between 4.4 and 4.3 is There are six CNC machine tools on the 4.4 line That means it produces part of componets and also plays the role of assembly at the same time and these six horizontal center machines can also be called FMS So they are also called intelligent processing production lines wait this word The word didn't tear off Take a shoot and show it to the chairman I contribute to the company as well the intelligent processing production line is officially completed Although it looks like the machine has largely replaced manpower But there are many things that will not be reduced in manpower For example, if you can make a drawing How do you design your knife making method or your manufacturing process It actually requires a lot of industrial foundation and then you are able to design and manufacture So everyone, don't give up You have to learn new things and improve yourselves also your spirit of expertise and your professonal ability Only in this way can you become an irreplaceable worker Now come directly to their manual processing area Look at this person, what does his action looks like? (like make love) I never thought I could do such a happy thing at work It is worth to know more about this work Have you ever seen hand scraping before? Hand scraping is one of the work that cannot be replaced by any machine Could you introduce your work and skill to us? Well. In fact, it’s not completely true flat because of machining. so you need to scraping it to make sure it is flat After scraping, it will make the point depth we want it make smoother when the track is moving The one he just applied is called red pill powder Just to cover the place he just shoveled Now this action look at what he just shoevled does it flat enough? Each of their machines has been test over and over again before leaving the factory that is to asembly many times look at the right side it is where the red pill powder cover Suppose it showed signs Then wipe off the red pill powder So it won't be fuzzy together This is what it looks like It is equivalent to making every high point follow a low point then overlap it But every high point is on the same plane This will help the oil can be attached to it as long as possible Have you seen it looks very beautiful it is Hand-made, like a handicraft How long you work for this job Almost six years Wow, six years! So everyday you are doing this (action like making love) Yeah like this XD How about the salary of your job here? The salary is not bad How much do you earn a year A year? Is it availble to share? How much can you earn for the annual salary? How many digits? seven Wow, you heard that right? Ask him for money XD? You can earn a million for yearly salary You can earn the same, don't you? That's to say After you guys follow me all day If you buy a CNC You can produce components for automotive industry motocycle industry, or even bike industry or maybe you can imagine that Except for the proofing of some hand tools or the OEM of some small components or Taiwanese traditional mold processing industry But how do you know what kind of CNC you would like to buy or how many axes you need for your CNC Then you can come here Victor Taichung can help you Thanks to Victor Taichung again Allow us to shoot video at here last but not least last but not least It can be recommended that undergrad students or you would like to change jobs you don’t have to go to work in some high-tech industries Actually you can go to this kind of company the company has good environment also can live here You can learn the principles and manufacturing of the entire mechanical composition If you want to develop or want to learn skills You can send your resume to this company Thank you for watching our video If you like this series Please hit the like and comment below What kind of factory do you want to know This is I'm serious See ya!
