Abstract

In this work, the four-phase model is applied, product definition, conceptual design, materialization design and detailed design for the construction of a CNC (computer numerical control) milling machine for machining parts in medium density fiberboard (MDF) of 2.5-12mm thick, the work contributes to show the methodological application established by Pahl & Beitz in a real example of engineering design. The CNC milling machine is built with a 20×40mm and 20×20mm aluminum structure, as well as 12mm thick MDF that provides the possibility of machining models from 2D and 3D CAD designs, the effective workspace (x, y, z) is 270×270×50mm. The machining of parts is carried out from the translational movement that the milling machine movement system performs on the x-y plane and the height defined on the z axis, as well as the rotational movement of the cutting system spindle. Isometric views of the CAD design of the movement systems on the x, y, z axes and the machining table are presented. The CNC milling machine is controlled by an Arduino Uno card, a CNC Shield board for Arduino, stepper motor drivers, 1.8° stepper motors. All components are commercial, which allows the development of a low-cost prototype. Finally, the machine operation process is described, as well as the process sheet for machining parts.
