CNC lathe is a high-efficiency and high-precision processing equipment that can be used to process various types of parts. The following are common types and techniques for machining parts on CNC lathes:
Abnormal parts: CNC lathes can process various abnormal parts, such as brackets, forks, and other irregularly shaped parts. These parts generally require mixed processing from multiple workstations, requiring a lot of tooling and a longer production cycle. CNC lathes can complete processing of multiple workstations at once through highly integrated processing methods, improving production efficiency.
Curved parts: CNC lathes can complete the surface of parts composed of complex curves or surfaces. During processing, multiple coordinate axes need to be linked to carry out processes that are difficult for ordinary machine tools to complete. The process of these parts needs to be highly concentrated, with small cumulative errors in part size and high assembly accuracy. CNC lathes can achieve high-precision and high-quality surface machining through multi coordinate linkage.
Flat and perforated parts: CNC lathes can process various flat and perforated parts, such as parts with parallel machining surfaces and consistent angles between machining surfaces that are horizontal. These parts are called flat parts, and each machining surface of these parts is either flat or can be unfolded into a flat surface. Specialized angle forming milling cutters are generally used for processing. It can also process curved disc sleeves and plate parts with more holes for processing.
Variable angle parts: CNC lathes can process variable angle parts, that is, parts with a continuous variation in the angle between the processing surface and the horizontal plane. This type of part requires a high degree of process technology and precise CNC equipment to achieve high-precision and high-quality processing.
Overall, CNC lathes can process various types of parts, from simple linear shapes to complex curve and contour shapes, achieving high-precision and high-quality processing.
