Principles for selecting CNC lathes?

Preliminary preparation

Determine the process requirements of typical parts and the batch size of processed workpieces. The function that the CNC lathe should have is to make preparations and the prerequisite for a reasonable selection of CNC lathes: meet the process requirements of typical parts.

The process requirements of typical parts are mainly the structural size, processing range and accuracy requirements of the parts. According to the accuracy requirements, that is, the dimensional accuracy, positioning accuracy and surface roughness of the workpiece, the control accuracy of the CNC lathe is selected. Choose based on reliability. Reliability is the guarantee for improving product quality and production efficiency. The reliability of CNC machine tools means that the machine tool runs stably for a long time without failure when it performs its functions under specified conditions. That is, the mean time between failures is long, even if there is a failure, it can be restored in a short time and put into use again. Choose machine tools with reasonable structure, well-manufactured, and mass-produced machines. Generally, the more users, the higher the reliability of the CNC system.

Machine tool accessories and tools

Machine tool accessories, spare parts and their supply capacity, cutting tools are very important to CNC lathes and turning centers that have been put into production. When choosing a machine tool, carefully consider the compatibility of tools and accessories.

Turning center

Manufacturers generally choose products from the same manufacturer, and at least buy the control system of the same manufacturer, which brings great convenience to the maintenance work. Teaching units require students to be knowledgeable and knowledgeable, so it is a wise choice to choose different systems and to equip them with various simulation software.

Performance and price ratio to choose

Make sure that the functions and accuracy are not idle, not wasted, and do not choose functions that have nothing to do with your own needs.

When the protection of the machine tool is required, the machine tool can be equipped with a fully enclosed or semi-enclosed protection device and an automatic chip removal device.
