Benefits of Multifunctional CNC Lathe Machine
 
01/

Higher Precision and Accuracy
Multifunctional CNC Lathe Machine operate with greater precision to deliver accurately machined and smoother parts that would be difficult or even impossible to achieve with a 3-axis machine. With a traditional 3-axis cnc machine, the tooling can only approach the workpiece at a few points, limiting the angles from which the stock can be cut away. Therefore, to create more complex parts with a 3-axis machine, the workpiece would have to be moved and repositioned for various cuts. Each time a workpiece is moved within the machining process, accuracy and precision are compromised. The multi-axis machines we have access to today can reach workpieces at various angles, and operate more closely to the workpiece, allowing for a complex array of geometries to be performed within a single setup, with no repositioning required.

02/

Improved Production Speed (Lead Times)
The tangential arrangement of the cutting tools to the material with multi-axis machining allows for more material to be removed with each rotation, increasing the speed that single applications can be performed. When this is combined with expanded tooling capabilities and multi-axis simultaneous machining from a single setup, cycle times improve significantly. This can lead to drastically reduced lead times.

03/

Fewer Setups
With Multifunctional CNC Lathe Machine, you can set up your workpieces at one time to handle all milling/turning operations needed to fabricate complex geometries. You'll produce parts faster, minimize operational costs, and reduce most errors prevalent in conventional 3-axis machines.

04/

More Complex Part Geometries
The ability of multi-axis CNC machining to move workpieces over more dimensions without removing them gives it a significant advantage over conventional 3-axis machining. Cnc machines with 5 axes or more can get tools very close to the working material at various angles, creating the ability for deep cuts and complex shapes that were not achievable from only 3-axes machines. The greater the axes, the better the machine can handle complex designs with high precision.Any time a workpiece needs to be repositioned for a separate set of cutting operations, a degree of precision is lost. High level multi-axis cnc machines, like our 9-axis Miyano, deliver the most complex parts with extreme precision. These machines attack the most complicated angles to create complex geometries with premium finishes at tighter tolerances.

05/

Better Surface Finishes
Multifunctional CNC Lathe Machine bring the cutting tools closer to the working material. Shorter cutting tools produce better surface finishes because the shortened length makes them less susceptible to machining vibration. This produces a cleaner product directly from the machining process and minimizes the need for additional touch ups.

06/

Improved Drilling Capabilities
Multifunctional CNC Lathe Machine change the game for drilling applications. Each time a part is moved in a CNC operation, there's an opportunity for error or loss of precision. Since parts hold their position through various applications in multi-axis machining, precision is maintained even through separate drilling applications with different variants. The additional axes also allow the machine to reach tighter and more complex angles, completing more complex drilling applications with finer finishes.
