Comparison of CNC woodworking lathes with traditional woodworking lathes and hand tools

The traditional wooden lathe is slow, the operator cannot leave the machine, the operation is very demanding, and the stability of the lathe ispoor and complicated. The operator needs long-term learning, is prone to error,high defect rate, slow processing speed, unstable processing quality, and thesurface roughness of the workpiece directly affects the difficulty of the nextgrinding process, and also increases the operation time. Labor intensity and difficulty are large. When the workpiece part is hard, it is easy to break the work piece and injure people. This is a safety problem that needs attention.

CNC automatic CNC woodworking lathe is not only suitable for processing slender wood, but also can process coarse wood. It has the characteristics of soft processing material and high hardness. The surface of the workpiece after processing is brighter than the existing parts of the woodlathe. Including the base, bed, program control system, headstock, centerplate, tool holder moving system, tail. The lubrication system of the seat and machine features: program control system, headstock, tailstock, tool holdermoving system, machine lubrication system installed on the bed, bed and baseare integrated into one, mainly used for wood processing. CNC wooden lathes cannot only process fully symmetrical wood parts, but also can process parts of the opposite sex, such as table legs, baseball bats, wooden bowls, woodenvases, shaped crafts, etc., which is very difficult. It takes about 10 minutesto machine the legs with a CNC wood milling machine, while the fully automatic CNC wooden lathe (which also includes rough grinding) takes about 2 minutes.

Does this processing efficiency greatly improve the processing efficiency and quality of parts? What are the advantages of automatic CNC woodworking lathes compared to traditional woodworking lathes?

1. Adaptability to the processing object.

Unlike traditional wooden lathes, since it is only necessary toreprogram to replace new parts when replacing CNC wooden lathes, it does notrequire the manufacture and replacement of many tools, fixtures and measuringtools, nor the need to re-adjust the lathe. As a result, CNC woodworking lathescan be quickly converted from one part to another, which provides greatconvenience for new products in single, small and pilot production, not only shortening the production lead time, but also saving a lot of tools. cost.

2. Automatic operation mode.

Compared with traditional lathes, the automation level of CNC woodworking machines has been greatly improved. The CNC wooden lathe does notrequire the worker to operate the equipment all the time, but before programming the drawing, the program is programmed into the CNC lathe computer using a programming language, the computer will actively analyze and operate the equipment through the central processing unit command. This kind of CNC machine tool greatly reduces the manpower and greatly improves the delivery accuracy.
3. High processing accuracy.

The manufacture of CNC wood lathes is given in digital form. At present, the pulse equivalent of CNC woodworking equipment can generally reach 0.001mm. The numerical control equipment can compensate the clearance and pitcherror of the feed chain, so the CNC woodworking lathe can achieve highermachining accuracy. The quality stability depends on the necessary measurestaken in the structural design of the CNC lathe and the characteristics ofmechatronics. Firstly, the ball screw nut structure and the clearanceelimination structure are adopted to minimize the mechanical transmissionerror. Secondly, the software precision compensation technology is adopted tofurther reduce the mechanical error. Third, the program is used to control theprocessing to reduce the influence of human factors on the machining accuracy.

4. Processing quality is good.

Compared with the traditional CNC woodworking car, the CNC woodworking car is not only suitable for processing slender wood, but also can process rough wood. It has a wide range of applications of soft and hardmaterials and the surface of the workpiece after processing. Brighter than traditional wooden lathes. It is imperative that a machine is prolific and workefficiency is improved.

5. In a traditional lathe, one product is intelligently processed at a time, and the two-axis two-knife CNC wood lathe in a CNC wooden lathe can process two identical products at the same time. Simple to operate,easy to draw, easy to understand, one-click conversion of product styles, andpeople with no professional knowledge can operate with simple training. Theautomatic CNC woodworking car can operate 2-3 sets at the same time, which greatly improves the processing efficiency, saves labor and money, and bringsgood economic benefits. The time required for part processing consists of twoparts: moving time and auxiliary time. CNC lathes can effectively reduce thetime between these two parts, so the processing productivity is much higherthan ordinary woodworking lathes. The spindle speed and feed range of CNClathes are larger than those of ordinary lathes. The most appropriate cuttingparameters can be selected for each process. At the same time, the goodstructural rigidity also enables the CNC wooden lathe to perform heavy cuttingparameters, thus saving motor time.
The rapid movement and positioning of the moving parts of the CNC lathe adoptsthe acceleration and deceleration measures, so the high speed of the idlestroke is selected, and the time spent in the fast movement, the rapid retreatand the positioning is much less than that of the ordinary lathe. The machiningaccuracy of CNC woodworking lathes is relatively stable. Generally, only theinspection and sampling of the front part are used to check the size betweenkey processes, thus reducing the inspection time. The CNC wooden lathe withtool magazine and automatic tool changer enables continuous machining in multiple processes on a single lathe.
