Introduction

The production of molds for various applications—be it plastic, auto parts, or other industries—demands precision and efficiency. Many manufacturers face challenges in finding machinery that can handle large and heavy molds without compromising on performance. This is where the Plastic Mold Making CNC Milling Machine DC1317 comes into play, offering an optimal solution with its advanced features and robust design.

Identifying the Challenge

Oversized molds often require specialized equipment due to their weight and complexity. Many existing CNC milling machines struggle to maintain accuracy and efficiency when working with larger molds, leading to wasted materials, increased production times, and higher operational costs. Furthermore, manufacturers require machinery that integrates seamlessly into their existing workflows while also providing versatility across different applications.

Solution: The DC1317 CNC Milling Machine

The Plastic Mold Making CNC Milling Machine DC1317 is specifically engineered to alleviate these issues. This large double-column CNC milling center stands out with its notable features:

1. Robust Design for Heavy Molds

The DC1317 is designed with a heavy body construction that offers high rigidity and smooth transmission. The workbench measures an impressive 1300 x 1700 mm, enabling it to accommodate molds of about one meter effortlessly.

2. Extended Z-Axis Travel

With a Z-axis travel of 500 mm, the DC1317 can easily process a wide variety of molds, ensuring that most manufacturing needs are met with precision.

3. Advanced Spindle Options

The machine is equipped with a standard BT40 mechanical spindle, with an upgraded BT50 spindle available for heavy cutting operations—ideal for demanding production environments.

4. Efficient Tool Management

An optional 24-tool arm-type tool magazine enhances processing efficiency, allowing for quick tool changes and reduced setup time during mold production.

5. Enhanced Cleaning and Maintenance
