Lathe is a common metal processing machine tool, according to different processing characteristics and uses, can be divided into the following types:
1. Flat Lathe (Engine Lathe) : Flat lathe is the most basic and most common type of lathe. It has a horizontal bed, the workpiece is clamped on the bed body, and the spindle and the tool move in the horizontal direction. It is widely used in the processing of various metal parts.
2. CNC Lathe: CNC lathe is a kind of lathe controlled by computer numerical control system. It can automatically execute various processes and movements, with a high degree of automation and flexibility. CNC lathes can achieve higher machining accuracy and efficiency, and are widely used in mass production and complex parts processing.
3. Combination Lathe: Combination lathe is a kind of machine tool that combines the function of lathe and milling machine. It can complete a variety of processing processes such as turning, milling, drilling and tapping on the same machine tool, and has high versatility.
4. Vertical Lathe: Vertical lathe is the type of lathe whose work surface is perpendicular to the spindle. The workpiece is vertically clamped on the vertical lathe, which is suitable for the top surface processing of the workpiece, such as milling, boring, etc.
5. CNC Vertical Lathe: Just like CNC lathe, CNC vertical lathe is equipped with computer numerical control system, which can realize automatic and accurate machining. It is suitable for high-precision machining of large and heavy parts.
In addition, there are some special types of lathes, such as pipe thread lathes, multi-spindle lathes, rolling lathes, etc., which are specialized for specific machining needs and specific types of workpiece processing.
