The main difference between a CNC horizontal lathe and a vertical lathe is that the main shaft of the CNC horizontal lathe is parallel to the horizontal plane, and the main shaft of the vertical lathe is perpendicular to the horizontal plane.
The spindle of CNC horizontal lathe adopts manual control, mechatronics design, beautiful appearance, reasonable structure, wide range of uses and convenient operation. The machine can realize automatic control and can turn and process the inner and outer circles, end faces, grooves, and arbitrary tapers of various parts. Surface, spherical, metric and inch threads, tapered threads and other processes are suitable for mass production. The CNC system can be equipped with a standard RS232 interface, so the machine tool can enter the DNC system. CNC horizontal lathe bed guide rail adopts super audio frequency quenching, technology, strong wear resistance, high precision, advanced spindle system structure, stable speed, and high cutting performance. Longitudinal and horizontal use ball screw drive. Excellent dynamic response and low noise.
Vertical lathes can generally be divided into single-column type and double-column type. Small vertical lathes are generally made of single-column type, and large vertical lathes are made of double-column type. The main feature of the vertical lathe structure is that its main shaft is in a vertical position. The main feature of the vertical lathe is: the worktable is in the horizontal plane, and the installation and adjustment of the workpiece are more convenient. The worktable is supported by guide rails, with good rigidity and smooth cutting. There are several tool holders and quick tool change. The machining accuracy of the vertical lathe can reach IT9-IT8, and the surface roughness Ra can reach 3.2-1.6um. The main parameter of the vertical lathe is the maximum turning diameter D.
