What is a CNC Lathe Processing?
CNC lathe is a kind of automatic lathe using CNC technology for machining control, with high precision, high efficiency characteristics, suitable for processing all kinds of shaft, disk and other rotating parts.
What is the difference between CNC lathe and CNC turning and milling compound machine?
CNC lathes and CNC turning and milling machines are all types of CNC machine tools, but they have obvious differences.
CNC lathe cutting is mainly used for processing a variety of shaft, disk and other rotary parts, the processing process, the workpiece for rotating movement, the tool for longitudinal or transverse movement, in order to complete the cutting of the workpiece. This machine can only complete the turning process, that is, only the rotating outer surface of the workpiece can be processed.
The CNC turning and milling compound machine realizes the processing requirements of turning and milling at the same time on one machine tool. In addition to the function of CNC lathes, it can also complete drilling, reaming, stranding, plane milling, groove milling and other processing. This machine tool can complete all processing from blank to finished product, that is, it can process the rotating outer surface of the workpiece, and it can also process the plane and groove of the workpiece.
Therefore, the function of the CNC turning and milling complex machine is more comprehensive, which can reduce the transfer of the workpiece between the machine tools, reduce the number of workpiece clamping, and improve the processing accuracy and processing efficiency. However, correspondingly, the structure of the CNC turning and milling composite machine is also more complex, and the manufacturing cost and maintenance cost are higher.
In general, CNC lathes and CNC turning and milling complex machines have advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of which machine mainly depends on the specific processing needs and budget.
