CNC lathe and CNC machining center difference

Definition of CNC lathe:

CNC lathe is an automatic machine tool with high precision and high efficiency.Equipped with multi-position knife tower or power knife tower, the machine tool has a wide range of processing performance, can process linear cylinder, oblique cylinder, arc and various thread, groove, worm and other complex workpiece, with linear interpolation, arc interpolation of various compensation functions, and in the mass production of complex parts to play a good economic effect.

Compared with ordinary machine tools, CNC machine tools have the following characteristics:

● high processing accuracy, with stable processing quality;

● multi-coordinate linkage, can process parts with complex shapes;

● machining parts change, generally only need to change the nc program, can save production preparation time;

● high precision and rigidity of the machine tool itself, can choose the favorable processing amount, high productivity (generally 3~5 times of the ordinary machine tool);

● machine automation degree, can reduce labor intensity;

● higher requirements for the quality of operators, maintenance personnel of higher technical requirements.

Nc machining center is a high efficiency automatic machine tool which is composed of mechanical equipment and nc system.Its comprehensive processing ability is strong, the workpiece can complete more processing content after a clamping.

CNC lathe is suitable for machining shaft parts, CNC machining center is suitable for adding parts geometry shape more complex box type parts, of course, there are several cars generally only two axis two linkage, and CNC machining center has at least three axes!
