The determination of the process requirements for typical parts, the batch size of processed workpieces, and the formulation of the functions that a CNC lathe should have are prerequisites for preparing in advance and selecting a CNC lathe reasonably: meeting the process requirements of typical parts.

The process requirements for typical parts mainly include the structural dimensions, machining range, and accuracy requirements of the parts. Select the control accuracy of the CNC lathe based on the precision requirements, namely the dimensional accuracy, positioning accuracy, and surface roughness of the workpiece. Choose based on reliability, which is the guarantee for improving product quality and production efficiency. The reliability of CNC machine tools refers to the stable operation of the machine tool for a long time without failure when performing its functions under specified conditions. The average time between failures is long, and even if a malfunction occurs, it can be restored in a short period of time and put back into use. Choose a machine tool with a reasonable structure, excellent manufacturing, and mass production. Generally, the more users there are, the higher the reliability of the CNC system.

Machine tool accessories and cutting tools

Machine tool accessories, spare parts and their supply capacity, as well as cutting tools, are very important for CNC lathes and turning centers that have already been put into production. When choosing a machine tool, careful consideration should be given to the compatibility of the cutting tools and accessories.
