Three Advantages of Swiss Type CNC Lathe Machine

Swiss type CNC lathe machine, fully known as centering CNC lathe, also known as spindle box mobile CNC automatic lathe, economic Turning-Milling compound machine tool or longitudinal cutting lathe.As a precision processing equipment, it can complete turning, milling, drilling, boring, tapping and engraving at the same time. It is mainly used for batch processing of precision hardware and shaft special-shaped non-standard parts.

Due to the different structure of centering machine and traditional CNC lathe, the machining efficiency and precision of centering machine are higher than that of CNC lathe. The centering machine uses two-axis tool arrangement, which greatly saves the processing cycle time. By shortening the tool exchange time between the tool arrangement and the opposite tool set, the centering machine can realize the overlapping function of multiple tool sets and the movement overlapping function of effective axis of thread cutting. The direct spindle indexing function during secondary machining can shorten the empty running time.

 
　　Compared with conventional CNC machining process, the outstanding advantages of compound machining are mainly manifested in the following aspects:

 
1.Shorten the product manufacturing process chain and improve production efficiency:

Turning-milling combined machining can complete all or most of the processing procedures in one load, thus greatly shortening the product manufacturing process chain. On the one hand, this reduces the production assistance time caused by the change of fixture loading, on the other hand, it also reduces the manufacturing cycle and waiting time of fixture, which can significantly improve the production efficiency.

2. Reduce clamping times and improve machining accuracy:

The reduction of loading times avoids error accumulation due to conversion of positioning datum.At the same time, most of the Turning-Milling compound processing equipment has the function of on-line detection, which can realize in-place detection and precision control of key data in the manufacturing process, thus improving the processing accuracy of products. 

3.Reduce floor space and production costs:

Although the single price of Turning-Milling compound processing equipment is relatively high, the investment, production operation and management costs of total fixed assets can be effectively reduced due to the shortening of manufacturing process chain and the reduction of equipment required for products, as well as the reduction of the number of fixtures, workshop area and equipment maintenance costs.
