Processing characteristics and processing objects of CNC lathes


Formed surface parts, non-standard pitch (or lead), variable pitch, constant pitch or spiral parts with smooth transition between cylindrical and conical rotating surfaces can all be processed on CNC lathes.

1. Highly difficult processing

Formed surface parts, non-standard pitch (or lead), variable pitch, constant pitch or spiral parts with smooth transition between cylindrical and conical rotating surfaces can all be processed on CNC lathes.

2. High-precision parts processing

The accuracy requirements of parts mainly refer to the accuracy requirements of size, shape, position and surface. The surface accuracy mainly refers to the surface roughness: ultra-precision parts such as the rotating drum in the copy machine, the magnetic head on the video recorder and the multi-faceted reflector on the laser printer. The geometric contour accuracy is as high as 0.01um and the surface roughness value is as high as Ra0.02um. These high-precision parts can be processed on special precision CNC lathes.

3. Processing of hardened workpieces

In large-scale mold processing, there are many parts with large sizes and complex shapes. The deformation of these parts after heat treatment is large, making grinding difficult. However, ceramic turning tools can be used to turn the hardened parts on CNC lathes, using turning instead of grinding to improve processing efficiency.

4. High-efficiency processing

In order to further improve the efficiency of turning processing, by adding the control coordinate axis of the lathe, two identical or different parts with multiple processes can be processed simultaneously on a CNC lathe.
