1. How Does a CNC Lathe Milling Machine Work?
1.1 Definition and Functionality
A CNC lathe milling machine is a sophisticated type of CNC lathe (ЧПУ токарный станок)that incorporates milling capabilities. This innovation has gained popularity in modern manufacturing due to its ability to enhance processing efficiency and meet the diverse machining needs of customers. The operation of this machine requires the collaboration of a servo main motor and a power head, imposing high demands on system capabilities.
1.2 Importance of Customization
As a customized CNC machine, the CNC lathe milling machine commands a higher price point due to its advanced features and strict technical requirements for manufacturers. Below, we will explore the configurations and features of the Máy tiện CNC from Tai’an Haishu Company.
2. What Are the Key Features of a CNC Lathe Milling Machine?
2.1 Evolution from Traditional Lathes
Traditionally, CNC lathe machines (CNC-Drehmaschine) could only perform rotational cutting around the axis. This was effective in the early stages of improving machining efficiency. However, as customer demands evolved, there arose a need for upgrades to handle long shaft workpieces that require milling, drilling, and tapping operations on their sides. In response, Tai’an Haishu Company has introduced several multifunctional options for customers.
2.2 System Options
In terms of systems, KND and GSK are preferred due to their advanced performance, rich functionality, and cost-effectiveness. These systems can be multifunctionally customized and extended, making them suitable for various applications. Customers can also choose from brands like Siemens, Fanuc, and Mitsubishi, but the high costs associated with these brands can significantly increase the purchase price.
3. What Challenges Does a CNC Lathe Milling Machine Face?
3.1 Rigidity and Torque Requirements
Milling operations present significant challenges related to spindle rigidity and motor torque. Ordinary spindles may lead to vibrations or insufficient rigidity during milling. Therefore, opting for larger spindle units is essential for handling intermittent milling processes effectively. A careful selection of the main motor is also crucial, as the spindle must have indexing and positioning capabilities for milling functions.
3.2 Power Requirements
Motors with insufficient power can trigger alarms and cause vibrations, making a higher power rating critical—typically starting from 7.5 kW at a minimum. Additionally, equipping the spindle with hydraulic or pneumatic locking devices enhances rigidity, further improving machining outcomes.
4. How Are Tool Turrets Designed for CNC Lathe Milling Machines?
4.1 Tool Turret Configurations
The choice of tool turrets adheres to strict standards. Conventional turrets cannot accommodate milling operations; thus, power turret heads are required. These are available in single or multiple configurations. A single power head is more affordable but limited to milling and drilling operations along the axis line with only one type of tool, suitable for single-process machining.
4.2 Advanced Power Turrets
For multiple power tool operations, a 12-station power turret is recommended. This allows each tool to rotate and accommodate drills, taps, and other tools. For milling applications, a vertically adjustable power turret adds another layer of complexity to consider, enhancing the machine’s versatility.
5. What Additional Features Enhance CNC Lathe Milling Machines?
5.1 Tailstock Clamping Systems
For longer workpieces, tailstock clamping is essential. However, programmable positioning of the tailstock is required, necessitating additional feed axes. If the workpiece is heavy or slender, auxiliary hydraulic supports become necessary. These considerations often arise during consultations with customers.
5.2 Customer Collaboration
It is beneficial for customers to provide drawings and images of the intended workpieces. This enables Tai’an Haishu Company to recommend or select appropriate configurations tailored to specific lathe requirements. Effective collaboration ensures that the right setup is achieved for optimal machining results.
6. How Can You Learn More About CNC Lathe Milling Machines?
