CNC lathe is also called CNC lathe. Detailed introduction

CNC lathes, also known as CNC lathes, are computer numerically controlled lathes. They are the most widely used and covered CNC machine tools in China, accounting for about 25% of the total number of CNC machine tools. CNC machine tools are mechatronics products that integrate multiple technologies such as machinery, electricity, hydraulics, pneumatics, microelectronics, and information. It is a machine tool with the advantages of high precision, high efficiency, high automation and high flexibility in mechanical manufacturing equipment. The technical level of CNC machine tools and the percentage of their output and total ownership of metal cutting machine tools is one of the important indicators to measure the overall level of a country's national economic development and industrial manufacturing. CNC lathe is one of the main varieties of CNC machine tools. It occupies a very important position in CNC machine tools. For decades, it has been widely valued by countries all over the world and has been rapidly developed.

Since the advent of CNC lathes in the 1950s, due to the use of CNC lathes to process complex-shaped parts in single-piece production and small batch production, it has not only improved labor productivity and processing quality, but also shortened the production preparation cycle and reduced the skills required for workers. Proficiency requirements. Therefore, it has become an important development direction for realizing technological innovation and technological revolution in single-piece, small-batch production. Countries all over the world are also vigorously developing this new technology.

We know that for mass-produced parts, the use of automated and semi-automated lathes can already automate the production process. However, for single-piece, small-batch production parts, achieving automation has always been a problem. For a long period of time in the past, it has always been unable to solve the problem satisfactorily. Especially in processing parts with complex shapes and high processing accuracy requirements, they have been at a standstill on the road of automation. Although some application profiling devices have solved part of it, practice has proved that profiling lathes still cannot completely solve this problem.

The emergence of CNC lathes (machine tools) has opened up a broad way to fundamentally solve this problem, so it has become an important development direction in mechanical processing.
