Rubric:Lathe

A lathe is a machine that is used to machine materials, mainly metals, wood and plastics. NC (Numerical Control) and CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines are modern types of lathes that allow the production of complex geometric shapes with high precision and speed. These machines are becoming increasingly popular in industry due to their ability to handle demanding production tasks and make operators' jobs easier.

The NC/CNC lathe works on the basis of a program that contains instructions for controlling the movement of the tool. Before production can begin, the program must be created using special software. This program is then uploaded to the machine control unit, which automatically sets up the tool and work table. The operator can then monitor the progress of production on the display and monitor the process.

NC/CNC lathes are mainly used in industrial production where large quantities of the same or similar products need to be produced. These machines are very accurate and can achieve tolerances in the micrometer range. Due to their high precision and production speed, NC/CNC lathes are ideal for mass production of parts for the automotive industry, aerospace industry and other areas.

The advantages of using NC/CNC lathes are many. First of all, they allow high precision and speed of production. This makes it possible to produce complex geometric shapes with very small tolerances. Furthermore, it saves time and manpower, because the machine can work continuously without the need for rest and the work is reduced to process control. NC/CNC lathes also allow very fast program changes to produce different parts.
