Development and application of CNC lathe

Numerical control technology is a method of controlling mechanical motion and machining process by using digital information. Since modern numerical control is controlled by a computer, it can be called Computerized Numerical Control (CNC).
CNC technology is a technology that uses digital information to control mechanical movement and working process. It is a new type of modern industrial production with rapid development. The numerical control equipment is a mechatronics product formed by the new technology represented by numerical control technology to the traditional manufacturing industry and the emerging manufacturing industry. Its technical scope covers: mechanical manufacturing technology, microelectronic technology, information processing, processing, Transmission technology, automatic control technology, servo drive technology, detection and monitoring technology, sensor technology, software technology, etc. CNC technology is the enabling technology and the most basic for developing emerging high-tech industries and cutting-edge industries. It has outstanding advantages in improving productivity, reducing costs, ensuring processing quality and improving individual labor intensity.
The CNC lathe with automatic tool changer is called the machining center. It can complete the multi-process machining in one time by the automatic exchange of the tools, thus shortening the auxiliary machining time and improving the efficiency and machining accuracy of the machine.
With the development trend of technology, modern machinery manufacturing requires continuous improvement of the form and structure of products, and the requirements for the quality of parts processing are getting higher and higher. Especially with the rapid development of FMCS and the rise and maturity of CIMS, it is proposed for CNC lathes. With higher requirements, modern CNC lathes are moving toward higher intelligence, higher speed, higher precision, higher reliability, higher automation and more functions.
