The difference between CNC lathe and CNC milling machine

 First of all, what we need to understand is the difference between CNC lathes and cnc milling machine, The difference is that the main tools for turning rotating workpieces. Drills, reaming drills, reamers, taps, molds, and knurling tools can also be used on the lathe Corresponding processing. Lathes are mainly used to process workpieces with rotating surfaces such as shafts, plates, sleeves, etc., and are the most widely used machine tools in machinery manufacturing and repair shops.

Rotary machines such as milling machines and drilling machines are derived from lathes. In China, Hong Kong and other places are also called rotary beds. Milling machine refers to a machine tool that mainly uses milling cutters to process workpieces. Usually the rotary motion of the milling cutter is the main motion, and the motion of the workpiece and the milling cutter is the feed motion. It can process planes, grooves, and can also process various curved surfaces, gears, etc. A milling machine is a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to mill low workpieces.

In addition to milling planes, grooves, gear teeth, threads, and spline shafts, milling machines can also process more complex curved surfaces and are more efficient than planers. They are widely used in machinery manufacturing and maintenance departments. The milling machine is a widely used machine tool, which can process planes, grooves, gears, and various surfaces on the milling machine. In addition, it can also be used to process and cut the surface and inner hole of the rotating body. When the milling machine is working, the workpiece is installed on the worktable or the indexer, and the milling cutter rotates as the main movement, supplemented by the worktable or the milling head feed movement, and the CNC milling machine equipment can obtain the required processing table for the workpiece.

The requirements of CNC lathes for operators
Operators have the most contact with composite CNC lathes and can grasp the operation process of the machine tool. They operate the machine tool every day, have accumulated a wealth of practical experience, and are very familiar with the state of the parts of the machine tool. Their correct use and maintenance have an important impact on the state of CNC machine tools. Therefore, a qualified CNC machine tool operator needs to have the following conditions.

1. Need to have high ideological quality, endure hardships and stand hard work, have good professional ethics, be able to study technology assiduously, have a technical secondary school education or above, and have rich practical experience.
2. Proficient in various operations and programming, able to correctly and proficiently perform various operations for the CNC machine tools that you are responsible for, and master the programming methods, can compile correctly and optimized processing procedures, and avoid operating errors and programming caused by collisions and machine failures error.
3. In-depth understanding of the characteristics of the machine tool, master the operation of the machine tool in Guilin, have a deep understanding of the characteristics of the machine tool, and be able to grasp the operating conditions and some laws, and the operators responsible for daily maintenance can correctly and skillfully complete the maintenance work. So as to maintain a good machine condition.
4. Familiar with the operating procedures and maintenance and inspection content. In line with CNC lathe equipment, the machine should be familiar with the basic operating procedures and safe operating procedures of the machine, the content and standards of daily maintenance and inspection, and the specific parts and requirements of maintenance and lubrication. And know the grease grade and the oil grade used by the substitute machine, the normal pressure of the hydraulic and pneumatic system.
5. Deal with it carefully and keep a record. Any abnormal situation and signs found during operation can be dealt with and recorded carefully. Once a failure occurs, the work should be done in a timely and correct manner, and repair personnel should be found as soon as possible to repair, repair process, and maintenance The personnel cooperate closely to complete the fault diagnosis and maintenance work of the machine tool.
