What are turned parts?

Turned parts are important functional components for products and can be found in many areas of today's era. Thus, with the introduction of CNC technology, the application possibilities of these turned components could be further extended. Whether the smallest micro parts for the watch industry or long turning parts for mechanical engineering, where something rotates or moves is usually a turning part behind it. Here, very hard materials such as titanium as well as soft materials such as plastic parts be machined with high process accuracy and cost-optimized, which is why the production of turned parts has become an integral part of production in many areas.

How is the production done?

Turning belongs to the group of separation processes and takes place on manual lathes or CNC controlled lathes. In this machining process, as opposed to milling, the workpiece rotates about its own axis, so the main cutting motion is performed by the rotating workpiece. In order to lift a chip while the tool is moved with a carriage along the rotating workpiece. Thanks to the latest developments in the field of lathe technology, complex filming can now be carried out, which was previously only possible on milling machines.

Which axes are available when turning?

The axis of rotation of the main spindle, around which the workpiece and the chuck rotate, is called the Z-axis when turning and runs from the chuck towards the tailstock. The X-axis is perpendicular to it. A Y-axis is not necessary during normal turning because the tool height above the XZ plane is fixed when setting up the lathe. In contrast, the angle of the main spindle is often displayed as a third coordinate on CNC-controlled lathes. The scale division on the X-axis doubles the actual movement when turning, as the movement of the tool affects the radius of the workpiece.

The advantages of turning

Turning has many advantages over other machining processes. The following advantages make this technology an important basic technology.

●High dimensional accuracy
