CNC lathe is an advanced digital mechanical equipment that can improve work efficiency and accuracy during the work process, so it is widely used in modern manufacturing. However, there are still some problems with CNC lathes during use. Let’s explain them in detail below.

1. Improper equipment maintenance

If a CNC lathe is not maintained promptly and correctly, its equipment life will be greatly reduced. During use, the equipment may become clogged due to debris, dust, and chips, causing the equipment to fail to operate normally. Therefore, regular and proper cleaning and maintenance are essential.

2. Programming errors

CNC lathes require complex programming to work smoothly, and programming errors will lead to disastrous consequences. This can lead to malfunctions during work or the production of workpieces of poor quality. Therefore, for the operator, the code should be entered as accurately as possible when programming to ensure that the parameters of the program and the computer are fully consistent.

3. Improper operation

CNC lathe operators should operate it properly, otherwise it will lead to a decline in the quality of products produced on and off the production line. For example, when the operator translates the workpiece to the cutting position, if there is a deviation, the workpiece will be cut to a different depth, which will have a negative impact on the quality of the product. Therefore, technicians must receive training and theoretical guidance, and master the key points of technology through practical operations.

4. Mechanical failure

CNC lathes may experience mechanical failures during the cutting process, such as the spindle not rotating or the cutting blade being damaged due to excessive damage. In order to minimize the occurrence of mechanical failures, in addition to regularly checking the operating status of machinery and equipment, the service life and performance of machinery and equipment can also be improved by maintaining, upgrading and replacing original parts.

To sum up, problems during the use of CNC lathes can be big or small. The key lies in how to pay full attention and find problems in daily operations. We need to pay attention and take appropriate treatment methods to ensure the efficient and stable operation of the equipment, thereby providing better services for our manufacturing industry.
