FTC-260 High Precision CNC Lathe

A FTC-260 High Precision CNC Lathe, which stands for Computer Numerical Control lathe, is a type of machine tool used in the manufacturing industry for precision machining operations. It is designed to automate and control the machining process, resulting in accurate and efficient production of various cylindrical and symmetrical parts. CNC lathes are widely used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, medical devices, and more.

Key features and characteristics of CNC lathes include:

1. Computer Control: FTC-260 High Precision CNC Lathes are controlled by computer programs that define the tool movements, cutting paths, and other machining parameters. This allows for high precision and repeatability.
2. Operações de Torneamento: FTC-260 High Precision CNC Lathes are primarily used for turning operations, which involve rotating a workpiece while a cutting tool removes material to create cylindrical shapes, threads, and other features.
3. Ferramentas: FTC-260 High Precision CNC Lathes use various cutting tools that are selected and positioned automatically by the machine. These tools can be changed during the machining process using an automatic tool changer.
4. Eixo do Movimento: CNC lathes typically have two main axes of movement: the X-axis (horizontal) and the Z-axis (longitudinal). Some lathes may have additional axes for more complex operations.
5. Mandril ou pinça: The workpiece is held securely in place using a chuck (for larger parts) or a collet (for smaller parts) attached to the lathe spindle.
6. Fuso: The spindle holds and rotates the workpiece. The rotational speed of the spindle can be controlled based on the material and cutting requirements.
7. Turret: Many CNC lathes have a turret that holds multiple cutting tools. This allows for quick tool changes and reduces downtime.
8. CAD/CAM Integration: CNC lathes often work in conjunction with computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software. CAD is used to design the part, while CAM generates the toolpaths and programming for the machine.
9. Precisão e exatidão: CNC lathes offer high levels of precision and accuracy, allowing for the production of parts with tight tolerances.
