The Power Turret of CNC Lathe
With the development of the manufacturing industry, CNC lathes, as an efficient and precise processing equipment, have become an indispensable part of modern factories. Among the many components of CNC lathes, the power turret plays a particularly prominent role, providing higher precision and efficiency for workpiece processing.
Powered turret is a versatile component that combines turning and milling processes. Consisting of a turret body, tool shank, tool holder, and cutting tools, power turret boasts a compact structure housing a motor comprising a stator and rotor. This motor drives the turret's rotation and tool changes, empowering efficient machining.
Working Principle
The working principle of the powered turret is to control the rotation of the turret body and the movement of the tool holder through the CNC system, thereby selecting the appropriate tool for processing.
Multi-station Design
CNC lathe power turrets usually have multiple stations, such as 8-position, 10-position, 12-position, 15-postion, 16-position etc., which means that at the same time, the CNC lathe can load many different types of tools, such as turning tools, boring tools, drilling tools etc. The multi-station design enables CNC lathes to adapt to various complex processing needs, such as processing workpieces of different shapes and materials. Operators can install appropriate tools at different stations of the power tool turret according to specific processing requirements, thereby achieving high-quality, high-precision processing operations.
Adjustable Size
The size of CNC lathe-powered tool turrets can usually be adjusted based on specific machining needs. Whether it is processing small parts or large workpieces, you can choose a power turret of the appropriate size according to your needs to achieve precise processing operations. The size adaptability of the CNC lathe power turret means that it can cope with different scales of processing tasks.
Automatic Tool Change Function
The CNC lathe power turret can realize automatic tool change, which improves processing efficiency, reduces the need for manual intervention, and also reduces the error rate during the processing process.
High-speed Processing capability
The power turret has a compact design and rapid tool switching, enabling high-speed processing, shortening the processing cycle, and improving production efficiency.
Precision Machining
The power turret adopts a high-precision transmission system and control technology, which can achieve precision machining of workpieces and ensure processing quality and product accuracy.
Multi-functional Processing
The CNC lathe power turret has multiple stations and can be equipped with different types of tools to achieve a variety of processing operations to meet the processing needs of complex workpieces.
Generally speaking, the power turret can install both turning tools and milling cutters, so it can turn and mill. It is a turning and milling combination in the true sense.
