Impeller Machining
5-axis CNC Impeller Machining Service An impeller is a rotating part of a centrifugal pump that transfers energy from the motor driving the pump to the pumped fluid by moving the fluid from the center of rotation. Usually, the impeller machines’s vanes often have compound curves and are tightly spaced, which makes the process of machining a difficult task. Moreover, the area between the blades is often narrow and deep, a bad combination because it requires long, skinny tools. Generally, impellers machining from a blank involve CNC turning and CNC milling the excess material from between the blades, semi-finishing the floor and the blades, then finally finishing the floor and blades. With our modern computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) systems, the excess material is milled in precisely monitored layers. Additionally, by keeping the cutter’s centre axis aligned with the cutting forces, side-pressure and vibration can be dramatically reduced, ...
