The difference between CNC lathes and CNC milling machines
The first thing to understand is the difference between a CNC lathe and a CNC milling machine, which is not the difference of CNC itself. A lathe is a machine that primarily uses turning to rotate the workpiece. On a lathe, bits, drills, reaming tools, reamers, nozzles, tooth plates, and rolling tools can also be used for corresponding processing. Lathes are mostly used for processing shafts, discs, sleeves, and other workpieces with rotating surfaces. It is the most widely used machine in manufacturing and machinery repair workshops. Machines like milling and drilling machines all originate from the lathe. In Hong Kong, our country also calls it a rotary bed. A milling machine is a machine that primarily uses milling tools to process various surfaces on the workpiece. Usually, the rotary movement of the milling tool is the main movement, while the movement of the workpiece (and) the milling tool is the feed movement. It can process flat surfaces, grooves, and also various curved surfaces, gears, etc. A milling machine is a machine that uses milling tools to mill the workpiece. Besides milling flat surfaces, grooves, gears, threaded gears, and spline shafts, it can also efficiently process relatively complex surfaces better than a shaper and is widely used in manufacturing and repairing machine parts. Milling machines are versatile. On a milling machine, flat surfaces (horizontal, vertical), grooves (main grooves, T-slots, dovetail grooves, etc.), gear parts (gears, spline shafts, chains), threaded surfaces (threads, thread grooves), and various curved surfaces can be processed. It can also be used to rotate the machine body surface, process internal holes, and cut workpieces. When a milling machine operates, the workpiece is clamped on the worktable or on an indexing accessory. The milling tool rotates as the main movement, supplemented by the feed movement of the worktable or the milling head. The workpiece can receive the necessary processing...
