Swiss CNC lathe – the full name is Swiss CNC lathe, which can also be called headstock mobile CNC automatic lathe, economical turning and milling machine tool or longitudinal cutting lathe. It is a precision processing equipment that can complete turning, milling, drilling, boring, tapping, engraving and other composite processing at the same time. It is mainly used for batch processing of precision hardware and special-shaped non-standard shaft parts.
Compared with conventional CNC machining processes, the outstanding advantages of composite machining are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
(1) Shorten the product manufacturing process chain and improve production efficiency. Turning and milling composite machining can complete all or most of the processing steps in one clamping, thereby greatly shortening the product manufacturing process chain. This not only reduces the production auxiliary time caused by clamping changes, but also reduces the manufacturing cycle and waiting time of tooling fixtures, which can significantly improve production efficiency.
(2) Reduce the number of clamping times and improve processing accuracy. The reduction in the number of clamping times avoids the accumulation of errors caused by the conversion of positioning references. At the same time, most turning and milling composite machining equipment has the function of online detection, which can realize in-situ detection and precision control of key data in the manufacturing process, thereby improving the processing accuracy of the product.
(3) Reduce the floor space and reduce production costs. Although the price of a single turning and milling composite machining equipment is relatively high, due to the shortening of the manufacturing process chain and the reduction of equipment required for the product, as well as the reduction in the number of tooling fixtures, workshop floor space and equipment maintenance costs, it can effectively reduce the overall fixed asset investment, production operation and management costs.
