Tool Clamping The length of the tool shank extending from the tool holder should not exceed 1.5 times the height of the tool shank (except for boring, grooving, etc.). The tool shank axis should be perpendicular or parallel to the feed direction. Adjustment of Tool Tip Height: For turning end faces, conical surfaces, threads, forming…
The oil level in the headstock must not be below the oil mark. Otherwise, the oil pump may suck in air, or the gear mist may be insufficient, causing spindle vibrations, excessive heating of the friction clutch and rolling bearings, and other issues. According to the lathe manual, all lubrication system oiling points must be…
The performance of a lathe includes: machining performance, operational performance, and parameter performance. Machining performance refers to cutting efficiency (whether high-speed cutting is possible to shorten machining time and improve cutting efficiency) and the range of parts that can be machined (whether it can carry out various turning operations, including turning metric threads, inch threads,…
Machine Tool Description 1.1 Main Applications:This series of lathes is suitable for various turning operations, such as turning inner and outer cylindrical surfaces, conical surfaces, other rotary surfaces, and end faces. It can also cut various common threads — including metric, inch, module, and pitch threads — as well as perform drilling, reaming, tapping, and…
The CNC lathe consists of a spindle, slide, and tool post. The CNC system includes a display (CRT), a control panel, and a high-voltage control system. CNC lathes generally feature two-axis linkage: the Z-axis, which moves parallel to the spindle, and the X-axis, which moves perpendicular to the spindle in the horizontal plane. The latest…
The four principles of process sequence arrangement in mechanical manufacturing technology 1. Machining Reference Surfaces First, Then Other Surfaces Why it’s important: The reference surfaces serve as the foundation for aligning and positioning all other features of the part. By machining these first, you ensure that everything else is referenced to a stable, known location….
Problem Analysis: Is the mechanical oil in the tank in compliance with the specifications stated in the machine’s user manual? Is the mechanical oil clean? Has the tank’s oil filter been cleaned regularly and the oil replaced as per the maintenance schedule in the user manual? Impurities or incorrect oil grade can cause the oil…
Lathes are widely used machines in various manufacturing and repair shops to process rotating surfaces such as shafts, discs, and sleeves. These machines are among the most essential tools in the mechanical manufacturing industry. Their ability to perform a variety of operations makes them indispensable. From basic turning to advanced CNC lathes, these machines…
