Principles for purchasing CNC lathes Machie

1. You can choose general purpose, but not special purpose.

CNC lathes are industrial durable products that combine electromechanics and have high requirements for stability. To choose a CNC lathe with good stability, first try to choose a general-purpose machine. Because the maturation process of any product requires long-term tuning, the product is constantly improved through operational data and user feedback. Therefore, without knowing the brand quality, standardized lathes produced in long-term batches are much more stable than customized special lathes.

2. You can choose a small computer but not a large computer.

The right one is suitable. Small CNC lathes are cheaper than large CNC lathes. Large machines have redundant strokes, system functions, motor power, etc. Although they increase a certain degree of versatility, the actual situation is that when a processing plant adds equipment, it is generally It is targeted and the range of processed products is clear. The extra functions are a waste of space and money. And as the saying goes, one more incense burner means more ghosts. The extra functions will not only be unused, but also increase the risk of failure.

3. Can choose linear rail, but not hard rail

Linear guides cost more than hard rail guides, so linear rail lathes are generally more expensive than hard rail lathes. Although hard rails have the advantage of strong rigidity and are conducive to rough and heavy cutting, there are very few cases where hard rails must be used due to rigidity, especially when processing small parts. Even when processing stainless steel workpieces that are difficult to cut with a linear rail lathe, there is no problem at all. No. Line rails also have the characteristics of high speed and high precision. More importantly, if there is a problem of reduced accuracy after five years, the linear rail lathe can restore the accuracy by simply replacing the guide rails, while the hard rail lathe needs to remove the main casting for repair, and the maintenance cost is almost enough to buy a new one.

4. Shop around and choose the one with large shipments from low-priced machines.

In the CNC lathe industry, large factories mostly make large machines and multi-axis machines, while small factories mostly make special machines. A common feature of large manufacturers is that their prices are high because of the brand premium. Large manufacturers disdain to make two-axis machines because competition is fierce and profits are low. A common feature of small factories is also high prices. Because small factories have weak marketing capabilities, lack of funds, and few orders, they rely on making customized special machines to survive. General machines are often made as special machines, which have high manufacturing costs and rely on information asymmetry. Single, so the price is not cheap. Therefore, when users purchase a two-axis CNC lathe, they must shop around and choose the one with larger shipments among cheaper manufacturers.

SZGHTECH small CNC lathe is specialized in processing small parts. The products have obtained dozens of patents and are produced in standardized batches. Its standard CNC lathe can be easily modified into a fully automatic loading and unloading lathe, a four-axis CNC lathe and a turning-milling machine, so it can achieve stable performance and low price.
