CNC Lathe Machining
What is CNC Turning Machining?
CNC Turning machining, a machining cutting tool which fixed and rotated the raw material rod on it's driving headstock, to remove the material by means of relative movement between various cutting tools and raw material rod.
Automatic CNC Turning Machine can be combined with specific CNC machining operations, such as turning, threading, boring, drilling, grooving, reaming, cutting, facing, parting, knurling, etc.
Precision Manufacturing CNC machine with computer numerical control(CNC) could be a powerful machine integrated with highly precision CNC control, automatic feeders, coolant systems, translation/rotary systems, etc.
Apporo mainly operated with highly precision Japan and Taiwan CNC Turning Machining Center, such like Nomura, Star, Moriseiki, Miyano, Takisawa, Chiah Chyun, etc, basically generalized into Fixed Head and Sliding Head Turning/Lathe Machining Centers for various purpose.
Is my part a good fit for CNC Turning Machining?
There are some things to determine if a part can be made most cost-effectively on a CNC Turning machine:
What is the largest OD on the CNC machining part in comparison to the production quantity?
If a part is under 65mm OD, it may be suitable for higher volume mass production (over 1000 pieces). If it's larger than 20mm OD, the part will need to be chucked individually while in CNC machining, then it's most competitive for lower quantity work, such as prototypes.
Could my CNC machining part be run on a Swiss Screw Machine?
If the CNC machining part is under 20mm OD and high volume(over 5,000 pieces), it will be suitable to run on a Swiss Screw Machine(so called CNC Automatic Turning/Lathe Machine) with much more cost effectively and also highly precision.
