Proximity of frequently used items: All items used during work should be placed as close as possible and concentrated around the operator’s area, but without hindering free movement. Frequency of use: Commonly used items should be placed closer, while rarely used items should be placed farther away. Natural movement: The placement of items must conform…
Types of lathes other than ordinary lathes and their characteristics and uses Ordinary lathe is the most widely used lathe, but in order to adapt to the processing needs of different types of workpieces, and derived from a variety of specialized lathes. They have their own focus in structure, function and application scenarios. 1. Specialized…
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…
On a lathe machine, the terms cutting depth (ap), S, and F are the three main cutting parameters you must know. 1. Depth of Cut (ap) Meaning: How deep the tool cuts into the workpiece in one pass. Unit: millimeters (mm). Typical values: Roughing (removing material fast) → 2–5 mm Finishing (for smooth surface) →…
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…
