Why CNC Swiss Type Automatic Lathe suit for Mass Production?



Swiss type automatic lathe can finish the composite machining of turning, milling, drilling, boring, tapping and engraving at the same time. The processing efficiency and precision of Swiss lathe are much higher than tradition CNC machines. The high stiffness of Swiss type CNC lathe can be guaranteed by the the high precision feed system. The Swiss type CNC lathe is equipped with main spindle oil cooling system and high-end motor. The cooling oil can be matched with the spindle and form a oil cooling circuit, and ensuring the Swiss machine runs stably and lastingly at room temperature. With the application of dual-axis arranged tools, the machining cycle is reduced greatly. By shortening the tool exchange time between gang tool and the opposing tool station, the idle time can be saved. The CNC Swiss type automatic lathe can also equipped with an automatic feeding device, which will enable the single machine tool to realize fully automatic manufacturing. In this way, the labor cost and product defect rates will be reduced. Swiss machining is very suitable for mass production of precision shaft parts.Get more news about Swiss-type Lathe Machining,you can vist our website!

What is Swiss Type CNC lathe?

A Swiss type CNC lathe, also known as a Swiss automatic lathe, Swiss screw machine, or Swiss turning machine, was originally developed for the Swiss watchmaking industry. The traditional lathe is processing by moving tools, which achieve parts machining by rotating spindle and moving tools in various directions.There is no need to rotate and switch the tool of Swiss type CNC lathe, as it can be done by moving workpiece up and down. The parts machining can be performed through the rotation and moving of spindle, and the material can be fed in multiple times. Compared with the traditional lathe, CNC Swiss type automatic lathe can produce high precision parts by using the center guide sleeve, which makes it has great advantage on the machining of slender shaft parts.

The center guide sleeve can move and switch in various direction according to the position or direction of Z2, X2, C2. Which main function is to perform material splicing and auxiliary processing for the main spindle. The subsequent processing of some parts need be processed on the secondary spindle with the corresponding tool carrier, and the used control channel is separate from the main spindle, which makes the sub-spindle and main spindle won't be interfered by each other. During the practical machining, both two spindles are used at the same time, which can raise the manufacturing efficiency highly.
What's the difference between Swiss machining and traditional turning?

The biggest difference of Swiss type lathe and traditional lathe is that the material of Swiss type lathe is moving, but the tool of traditional lathe is moving. On the one hand, the production auxiliary time of the Swiss machining is reduced, on the other hand the the producing cycle and waiting time of jigs are cut down, which can increase the the production efficiency significantly. Along with the decrease of clamping, the precision is improved. The structure of side milling will optimize the usage of machine space amazingly. At the same time, most of these Swiss type lathe have online detecting function, which can realize the in-position detection and precision control during manufacturing.
