What do you know about component parts for cnc lathe?

       Hello everyone, this is HANBS , I'm Sonya, and today is another day to share with you! I would like to discuss with you today about the fixed components of cnc lathe. Fixed components, as the name suggests, are used to fix something. Some of the common fixtures in cnc lathe are tool turret, tool post, powered tool holders and so on. Let's have a look at these fixtures in cnc lathe.

• 1. Tool Turret:

       Tool Turret is the most common component of the modern cnc lathe that is fixed against the props.Tool Turret is a rotating disk that can hold multiple tools. The lathe can automatically rotate the tool turret during machining to turn the required tool to the correct position for machining, suitable for multi-process continuous machining.

         

• 2.Tool Post:

      Tool Post is used to hold a single or a small number of tools, usually mounted on the lathe slide. Compared with tool turret, tool post is more simple, usually used in small or manual lathe, cnc lathe sometimes also use this structure, especially in simple machining.

• 3. Powered Tool Holders:

     This type of tool holder with a power head is able to perform a variety of machining operations such as turning and milling. The power tool holders have built-in motors that can drive the rotary tool to complete side milling, drilling and other tasks, expanding the cnc lathe's machining capabilities.

• 4. Quick Change Tool Post:

      This tool holding assembly allows the operator to quickly change different tools, thereby reducing non-machining time and increasing productivity. Quick change tool posts are typically used where frequent tool changes are required and can be quickly removed and installed.

• 5. Hydraulic or Pneumatic Tool Holders.

       These tool holders utilize a hydraulic or pneumatic system for tool clamping to provide greater clamping force and higher levels of automation, and they are typically used in high-precision, high-volume production cnc lathes.

6. Tool holder:

     A tool holder is a component that directly clamps a tool, usually mounted on a turret or tool holder. Tool holders come in a variety of types and shapes, including turning tool holders, drilling tool holders and boring tool holders, etc. Choose the right tool holder for different machining tasks.

These components work together to ensure that the tool is held securely and safely in place during machining and allow the lathe to automatically or manually change the tool as required, thereby improving machining efficiency and accuracy.
