Introduction
CNC wood lathe is one of the most common types CNC woodworking machines. It is mainly used for cutting inner and outer cylindrical surfaces of shaft projects or disc projects, inner and outer conical surfaces with arbitrary cone angles, complex rotating inner and outer curved surfaces, cylinders, and conical threads. It can also perform grooving, drilling, reaming, reaming, and boring.
How does it work?
CNC wood lathe automatically processes projects according to the pre-programmed program. We compile the machining process route, process parameters, tool motion trajectory, displacement, cutting parameters and auxiliary functions of the project into a machining program list according to the instruction code and program format specified by the CNC lathe, and then record the contents of the program list on the control medium, it is then input into the CNC controller of the lathe, so as to direct the project of the CNC wood lathe.
What is it used for?
CNC wood lathes are mainly used to DIY various staircase spindles, table legs, sticks, chair legs, basins, roman columns, wooden vases, wooden column tables, children's bed columns, wooden furniture, etc. It can also custom bottle caps, sheets, stemware, cup lids, cello accessories, handles, flutes, rolling pins, suona, etc. It is especially designed for mass production of industrial woodworking businesses. The shape can be flexibly set at any time and the turning style can be quickly changed. In traditional manual lathe working, only one project can be turned at a time. CNC wood lathe machines have types of dual-axis and three-axis for option, which can make two or three projects at the same time with the same size. The operation is simple, the drawing is convenient, easy to understand, the project style of one-click conversion, and no professional knowledgeable personnel can carry out a little training. Fully automatic CNC wood turning lathe machines can operate 2-3 sets at the same time, which greatly improves working efficiency, saves labor, saves money, and brings economic benefits.
