Introduction of CNC Lathe

CNC lathe is a computer-numeric controlled machine tool specialized in CNC turning machining, including taper turning, hard turning, spherical generation, facing, cutting off, knurling, drilling, grooving, etc. Compared to a conventional lathe, CNC lathes are operated with precise design instructions and programs to improve the productivity and precision of CNC machining demands.

The Benefit of Collect Chuck VS 3- Jaw Chuck

Most CNC lathe users use three-jaw chucks as their standard work-holding equipment. It is one of the most commonly utilized chuck types in a variety of turning applications. That does not, however, imply that it is the ideal chuck for all jobs. A collet chuck is a work-holding device that also relies on mechanical forces to keep a workpiece in place. While a collet chuck cannot accept the same wide variety of workpiece sizes as a jaw chuck, it does provide advantages in speed, precision, and productivity that are important for some operations.

What can CNC lathe Make

CNC machines are used in areas that require precision and accuracy as well as repetitiveness. Long ago, the precision required for tasks such as bolt manufacturing could only be accomplished by humans. These machines, on the other hand, have long outperformed human capabilities. They are machines that are more accurate than humans and can repeat the operation multiple times. CNC machines are capable of producing nearly identical parts over and over again.

CNC machine programming origin and programming coordinate system

CNC machine tools have CNC device, machine operators, process programmers three different application objects, thus resulting in three coordinate systems: machine tool coordinate system (for the bottom of the CNC device coordinate system), the workpiece coordinate system (for the middle of the machine operator coordinate system), lathe programming coordinate system (for the upper level of the process programmer coordinate system). Correct selection and determination of the three coordinate systems, understanding the relationship between the three is very necessary for CNC machining and CNC programming.

What Does a Lathe's Tailstock Do

On a lathe, machining activities entail rapidly rotating long, slender workpieces. By turning the tailstock of the lathe, you can prevent the workpiece from vibrating and bending unintentionally as a result of this. But what precisely is a tailstock and how does it benefit the lathe's machining? This paper provides a detailed guide to the tailstock of a lathe by discussing the components, functions and types of tailstock. In addition, this article discusses practical aspects of everyday machining, such as methods of aligning the tailstock to achieve high quality output.

A SUMMARY OF MILL-TURN TECHNOLOGY

The different types of mill-turn machines range from the more basic 3-axis lathes (XZ&C), where the spindle is turned into a separate axis that can be rotated for milling operations, to the more sophisticated 6-axis machines, which also have a secondary programmable sub-spindle or counter-spindle and a linear Y-axis. The W-axis is used to position the secondary spindle for machining on machines that have one.

Choosing gang tooling or a turret for a CNC lathe

The easiest way to decide between gang tooling and turret lathes is to carefully consider the kinds of parts that will be created and the advantages those particular parts will gain.

You will probably prefer a Turret if you are unsure of the kind of parts you will eventually produce and are unwilling to accept the restrictions of gang tooling to smaller diameter shorter items. The turret lathe is probably what you want if you want the smallest learning curve and the easiest programming imaginable. On the other hand, gang tooling is a good option if you want the quickest cycle times so you can produce as many of the parts created on gang lathes as possible at a low cost.
