Where are the advantages of automatic lathes and ordinary machining?

Automatic lathes can process a wide variety of products. Apart from describing several general-purpose products in our products, we can also add many professional parts lathes in various industries, such as various small parts for the connector industry, and riveting of the cabinet industry. Parts and so on, it is almost a combination of CNC car / cold pier machine / lathe three advantages in one, and its product cost seems to be closer to the cold pier as cheap. So in recent years, automatic lathe processing flourished in the country.

Automatic operation is the biggest feature of automatic lathes. It can achieve the degree of unmanned operation for the processing of certain parts. An operator can operate dozens of automatic lathes at most. Because such automatic lathes use cams to achieve automatic operation and control, they also have their limitations: that is, the replacement of different processed products is not as convenient as computer lathes, and different cams need to be produced. Only through special debugging of the master can the processing be replaced. Components. Debugging has a lot to do with the level and experience of the master. A good teacher only needs a half-day to debug a product. An inexperienced master can take a day, two days, or even three days to debug a product. It also wastes some materials. Therefore, the automatic lathe parts can be used for batch activities to minimize the length of the product and give full play to the advantages of automated lathe automation. Therefore, the general mechanical processing owners will only use the automatic lathes because of mass production activities. Therefore, batch activities can be adapted to automatic lathe processing.

However, batch activity does not affect the main relationship of automatic lathe processing, which is also related to the characteristics of automatic lathes.

The dimensional stability of the processing is another feature of automatic lathes. Many companies have their own main products. The precision of parts and components for these products is demanding, and these higher-demand parts are made on the instrument lathes. Many of my company's customers are like this. Over the years, some parts of our products have not been machined on ordinary lathes or machined on instrument lathes. Slow speeds do not say that dimensional instability is the root cause. This not only inhibits the improvement of product quality, but also results in a certain amount of waste, and the cost of the product cannot be reduced. This is a problem for businesses.

Using automatic lathes for processing, this problem is solved. Automatic lathe machining is different from manual lathe and it is different from the lathe with very low precision. Automatic lathe is customized to control the machining size through the cam. Due to the high precision of the two spindles of the automatic lathe spindle and slider (spindle runout Not more than 0.003mm), but the cam control method is mechanical, the amount of change is very small, so that the size of the workpiece will not change during long-time machining (general processing size can be controlled to plus or minus 0.01mm) . This feature of automatic lathes allows machining owners to see hope. The use of automatic lathes to process parts completely guarantees the quality of the product. As for the processing of parts, the amount of large and small and quality has nothing to do. My company has a customer, is the production of instruments, many of their types of instruments, a single on the inside of the transmission gear parts up to dozens of species, but the production is not large, a variety of only tens of thousands of only one month, with automatic lathes Do it in a few days. However, many varieties add up and there are hundreds of thousands of monthly production. They used two automatic lathes and asked a master. Although the commissioning will take some time, the size of the parts will be stable and the quality of the processing will increase. The quality of the entire product has also been improved, which allows them to taste the sweetness.

Therefore, owners of automatic lathe processing or who want to use automatic lathes to machine parts should realize that the use of automatic lathes to process parts depends mainly on the needs of their own product structure. It depends on the needs of their own product quality, rather than looking at There is no bulk live. Of course, using computer lathes to machine parts is also a good method.
