How To Choose Your Horizontal CNC Lathe And Machining Center
When it comes to choosing a Horizontal CNC Lathe, many technical aspects must be taken into account to maximize its performance and achieve extremely high levels of productivity. Here are some of the most important characteristics to consider when choosing the machine best suited for the requirements of each process:
■ Workpiece Capacity. This refers to the maximum dimensions that can be processed on the machine. For example, the TCK52DY can handle workpieces up to 670mm swing over bed with 650mm center distance, while the compact TCK36A is designed for parts up to 360mm diameter with 300mm between centers. Consider your typical workpiece sizes to choose the most suitable machine.
■ Control System Options. Haitong offers multiple control system options including GSK as standard, with optional FANUC, SIEMENS, and MITSUBISHI systems. The choice of control system should align with operator familiarity and existing shop floor infrastructure.
■ Spindle Specifications. Spindle power, speed range, and through-hole capacity are crucial factors. The TCK52DY features a powerful 11-15kW spindle with speeds up to 4200rpm and 66mm through-hole, while the TCK36A offers a 3.7kW spindle optimized for smaller parts. Match these specifications to your material and cutting requirements.
■ Tool Management System. Tool capacity and change time significantly impact productivity. The TCK52DY includes a 12-station power turret with BMT55 tooling, while the TCK36A offers a 6-station tool holder. Consider your typical operation sequences and required tool variety.
■ Precision Requirements. Different machines offer varying levels of precision. The TCK36A achieves ±0.005mm positioning accuracy and ±0.003mm repeatability, while the TCK52DY maintains ±0.01mm positioning accuracy. Match these specifications to your tolerance requirements.
■ Machine Construction. Consider the machine’s structural design based on your applications. The slant bed design with linear rails provides superior stability and precision, while different bed widths suit various machining requirements. The TCK52DY features a 30° slant bed structure for optimal chip removal and operational efficiency.
■ Additional Features. Evaluate supplementary features like hydraulic chucks, programmable tailstocks, and automatic chip management. For instance, the TCK52DY includes Y-axis capability (±50mm) for enhanced machining flexibility, while the TCK36A offers comprehensive warranty coverage for machine and core components.
These factors should guide your selection process, but remember that each manufacturing requirement is unique and may benefit from customized solutions. Haitong’s technical team can assist in determining the optimal configuration for your specific needs.
