I am a newb to the world of CNC machining so forgive my ignorance, but I want to know if a 4-axis CMC mill can essentially do the equivocal operations of a CNC lathe? What is confusing me is that the "4th-axis" is a rotary table head and tail stock that sits on the mill table, so does this mean then that you have the capability of turning operations with it? I mean aside from the fact that the tool bit of a lathe and the end mills of a vertical mill sit in different places relative to the stock, isn’t the basic motion created by the rotary table identical to that of a lathe thus making turning operations at the least similar if not identical?

Yes, of course, if its set up to do it.

I am a Machininst by trade. I know about CNC, but I don’t have much to do with them. I am running a manual machine shop, no CNCs in it.

But, you actually don’t need the 4th axis to turn something like you would on a lathe.

Since the Z axis, the one coming down on the part is turning, you can make that turning bit turn in ways that turn the outside of a piece much the same way you would turn a piece in a lathe. The piece that your turning would need to be in a vise and mounted like any other piece, but the work could not be longer than the bit doing the work.

You can also have a collet holding system installed on the bed of the Mill horizontally with point rest on the other side to hold the other side of the piece in place that will turn a piece incrementally, index it. I don’t know if that would be considered the 4th Axis though. Maybe the rotary Table could be considered the 4th Axis too. But, in either case, the piece would need to turn pretty fast to get the same effect as being on a lathe and turning.

You can do internal threading with a single point threading tool in a stationary piece. So that is in a reverse sort of way, using a Mill to do a threading job. Only the piece is stationary, but the bit is doing the work.

It would be a bit cumbersome though, but, yes, it can be done.

Don’t worry about being a newbee. I started in the machining world over 30 years ago. It take years to really get good at it. Sometimes I wish I never got into it, but a guys got to do what a guys got to do:)

Dear;

Please check for G- code and M- codes for these machine languages.
you can also search for them on the net. Alternatively you can get them in any CAM book.

Basically programming these machines is not much difficult task at all. The programming is just simple set of instruction which tells the machine about where to go and which tool to select etc.

You can get the basics from CAM books.
There are also some tutorials and practice softwares available for this. like CNC tutor etc.

All the best.!!!

I am turning my lathe into a CNC machine, and I need software for my computer. I was wondering what you use for CNC lathe, and I’d like to get software free.

Your best bet for CNC lathe is CNCezPRO; this program is the software you need; however, I do not think it is for free!

I need to machine cylinders – a lot of them – roughly two and a half inches in diameter and roughly 8 inches long (the actual specs are quite tight, with additional specs on surface finish and perpendicularity along with the dimensions). The material is a ceramic, soft as ceramics go. We start with an oversized rough cylinder and currently machine them in a multi-step process on a ceramic saw (to rough out the length) and two lathes (one for diameters, another for end finishing), but we’d like to do the whole process in one machine. I think I can do it with a CNC mill, but I don’t know enough about them to know what to look for in a machine. Can anybody give me any advice?

You can do everything on a simple 2 axis chucking CNC lathe. Don’t use a mill, you won’t get the surface finish or cylindricity you want. Just use borazon or diamond tooling and you’re good to go.

If your od tolerance is really tight, you might just want to go with centerless grinding as a finshing process, but that’s another story.

Perhaps the best idea is to go around and introduce yourself to owners of other small job shops and offer to subcontract some of their jobs? They always have parts that they took on as part of package deal that they really aren’t interested in doing! Also there’s always parts that, for whatever reason, need to be re-worked. Also, on military bases, at least on air bases I know, they always need onesies – twosies on parts they need a quick turnaround on.
Hope this gets you goin’?

IF cnc operation also ok

Use a search engine (yahoo.com, google.com, etc) and do a search on "learn cnc lathe online", several sites come up. Too many to list. Unfortunately, I can not suggest one over the other. That will take a little leg work on your part, since you best know what you would be looking for.

Metal lathe or metalworking lathe are generic terms for any of a large class of lathes designed for precisely machining relatively hard materials. They were originally designed to machine metals; however, with the advent of plastics and other materials, and with their inherent versatility, they are used in a wide range of applications, and a broad range of materials. In machining jargon, where the larger context is already understood, they are usually simply called lathes, or else referred to by more-specific subtype names (toolroom lathe, turret lathe, etc.). These rigid machine tools remove material from a rotating workpiece via the (typically linear) movements of various cutting tools, such as tool bits and drill bits.

CNC lathe / CNC turning center

CNC Lathes are rapidly replacing the older production lathes (multispindle, etc) due to their ease of setting and operation. They are designed to use modern carbide tooling and fully utilize modern processes. The part may be designed by the Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) process, the resulting file uploaded to the machine, and once set and trialled the machine will continue to turn out parts under the occasional supervision of an operator. The machine is controlled electronically via a computer menu style interface, the program may be modified and displayed at the machine, along with a simulated view of the process. The setter/operator needs a high level of skill to perform the process, however the knowledge base is broader compared to the older production machines where intimate knowledge of each machine was considered essential. These machines are often set and operated by the same person, where the operator will supervise a small number of machines (cell).

The design of a CNC lathe has evolved yet again however the basic principles and parts are still recognizable, the turret holds the tools and indexes them as needed. The machines are often totally enclosed, due in large part to Occupational health and safety (OH&S) issues.

With the advent of cheap computers, free operating systems such as Linux, and open source CNC software, the entry price of CNC machines has plummeted. For example, Sherline makes a desktop CNC lathe that is affordable by hobbyists.

I ‘m in N Y and I have a manual lathe and small CNC mill.Moreover, I have some experience in welding. Can someone give me an advice how to get some work?

There are hundreds of small suppliers to the government that make everything that the military uses. The small electronic manufacturers sub contract out the cabinets etc. that they need. They are all in a little circle, it’s not a closed one, you just need to find a way into it. Some of the smallest contractors in your area can be owned by an native American female and turning over millions because of the way the government deals out contracts. A big company is not always better, go knock on some little doors.

Hello, I uderstand the basic needs, step motors, controller, break outs boards and software…But there are so many variable that I’m getting confused as to what would work the best. Has any body done this? How do I get the ball rolling?

Two suggestions:
1. Buy all your hardware from 1 supplier, e.g.
http://www.flashcutcnc.com/retrofitsOverview.php

and make sure they understand it is their responsibility to supply compatible components.
2. Spend some time on researching the software (preferably from the same supplier) and hardware requirements. Older software made use of PC parallel port printer outputs that simply do not exist on modern PCs. Indeed, older software simply would not run in a Windows environment. Make sure that your PC hardware and the software are compatible. Remember that you either have to write the programs to do particular jobs yourself, or you have to design the parts in a CAD program and then import the files into your CNC program (possibly via a third program).

You may find the quotes expensive, but against the cost of your time and frustration, you may find them worthwhile after all.

I was at work, and a co-worker told me for "homework" to come in at tell him why that when using a CNC lathe, when the piece is being cut, that counter-clockwise is "forward" and that clockwise is "reverse".

I think it has something to do with the placement of the cutting tools, but i don’t know much about the CNC lathe, and I’m learning as much as I can about it before I go off to college.

It probably has to do with the way the chuck is attached to the driving mechanism and/or the direction the clamps on the workpiece in the chuck is rotated. Cutting forward puts a torque in the same direction as the chuck and/or clamp so, the piece will not loosen, nor will the chuck itself loosen from the driving mechanism.

For cutting "in" (reverse) the cutting torque is in a direction that would tend to unscrew either the clamp or the whole chuck from the driving mechanism so, there is a small chance either the piece might come loose in the clamp, or the chuck itself might unscrew. If that happens the force on the cutting tool is ‘in’ toward the chuck so, the piece won’t fly out, it will just stay in-place.

i have been trying to get a job doing this and everyone wants experience…i dont have any so i was gonna go to school for it

Hard to say. You could go to a tech center and it should be about 2 years. You could also get a degree so 4 years. Then sometimes you get your foot in the door and land there. But it is true that you need experience. I see young people with schooling and they don’t know crap. I also is people with no exper. But they have the right mind for it. So they go fast. as far as a Specialist, I’ve been machining for ten or more years and still learning everyday.

olso how do i know how far to put the boring bar in and position it so i dont crash the part or machine

wow this brings back memories…i used to work in my dad’s machine shop. umm, first of all, have you tried asking your other co-workers or reading the manual that came with the machine? secondly, as far as the boring bar goes, you have to offset the tool to the part before you can run the job. it doesn’t matter how far you put it in, as long as you’ve got enough room to work with. no matter what, every time you change the tool, you must offset it. that’s where crashes come from…when you change a tool and forget to make adjustments. if you’ve got more than one tool you’re running, you’re going to need to offset them all if you change out the chuck. if you just change one tool and nothing else, just offset the tool. you don’t have to offset if you just change inserts, but if you’ve made adjustments to the offset due to wear and tear of the inserts, watch your first part and adjust accordingly. the chuck should come out pretty easily…there should be tools that came with the lathe.

www.barpullers.com – This video shows the Royal Grippex Coolant Actuated Bar Puller removing a finished workpiece from the sub-spindle of a multi-tasking lathe. This allows the sub-spindle to swallow long parts, without the use of a parts ejector. Additionally, the Grippex is shown removing a long bar remnant, preventing the bar from dropping into the chip conveyor and potentially causing damage to the conveyor. The Royal Products Grippex Bar Puller for CNC Lathes can be used for both pulling spindle length bars up to 3-1/8″ dia. and removing finished parts from the sub-spindle of a CNC lathe. The Grippex is actuated through coolant pressure of the machines turret or spindle (multi-tasking lathes).

CNC simply mean computer numerical control, that can be any system that uses computer numerical control, when you add lathe to the end then that means computer numerical control-lathe. For a list of machines other than Lathes that use CNC controls, you should try wikipedia, I will link it below

Since Mori Seiki released our very first lathe in 1968, we have unveiled more than 100 models of CNC Lathes.
When we were developing our leading machine for the next generation, the greatest challenge was its milling ability. Against this background, we completely revised the design of the turret and came up with Mori Seiki’s original technology, BMT (Built-in Motor Turret), to confront the problems of heat and vibration head-on. In 2004 we released the NL Series, which is equipped with this revolutionary turret, and in the three years since then it has become our best-selling series, with over 7,300 units shipped. Here is the NL Series of high-rigidity, high-precision CNC lathes, which has overturned conventional wisdom about lathes and continues to be the global benchmark for machine tools.

I am a CNC machinist. CNC Lathes can be used to produce anything a manual lathe can. This is also true of CNC lathes.
CNC machines are much more economical to use than their manual counterparts (at least for high-volume production) due to their repeatability, their lower per-piece cost, their ability to be left unattended, and their ease of control. Once programmed and debugged, a CNC lathe or mill can theoretically produce millions of identical pieces, provided the cutting tools (Titanium-carbide inserts on tool steel cutting tools) are maintained.
By the way, the lathe is the only tool that can be used to reproduce itself.

Some of my students made a few dozen of these model Space Needles.They handed them out to people visiting the machine shop during a Sno-Isle Skills Center open house on Thursday, February 5.

Safety note: Removing metal chips by hand can be dangerous for some metals. This piece was made from soft aluminum. Many other metals, especially stainless steel, produce very tough, razer sharp chips that should never be touched by hand.

The machine making the model Space Needle is a Haas CNC Toolroom Lathe, model TL-1 owned by Everett Community College. The shop is a high school tech lab during the day and a community college tech lab in the evenings. (This arrangement is a good use of taxpayer dollars.)

It’s far too complicate to explain here. I strongly suggest getting a copy of this book:
