CNC turning lathe, Swiss type lathe original manufacturer since 2007.
CNC lathe tool slide lock is not tight, roll anomalies discussion of the problem
in the process of using numerical control lathe, numerical control lathe will inevitably appear all sorts of trouble, so the problem of repair is a CNC lathe using the key of the problem. Grasp some repair technology can determine fault location quickly, shorten the repair time, let the equipment running quickly. In daily problem, we often meet the tool post, spindle, screw machining, system appeared, drive, communication etc. While the rest problems have large share in it. 1, 1) electric tool slide lock is not tight Transmitting plate bearing not to is: open tool slide lid, twisted and adjust the transmitting dish azimuth, make the hall element alignment of the tool carrier magnetic steel, makes the tool stops in the precise orientation. 2) CNC system locks the time is not long enough: adjust system locks the moment parameters ( The new locks the tool rest time t = 1. 2 s) 。 3) Lathe mechanical locking organization problem: disassemble the tool rest, adjust the machine, and check the positioning pin is broken. Number 2, electric tool post one knife turn continuously, the other knife can roll 1) This knife of hall element damage, which is acknowledged tool turn, rest on the system input command the tool, the cutter location signal contact by the multimeter to contact have 24 v voltage change, without change, can decide for the knife hall element is damaged, replace the transmitting plate or hall element 2) This dao a line break, forming system cannot check in position signal: check the tool of signal and system attachment there is open circuit, precise cohesion. 3) Tool of signal receiving circuit has a problem: when the judges the knife a hall element is no problem, as well as the tool of signal and system connection is under the condition of no problem to replace the mainboard.

1. Quick Troubleshooting Steps
Check the clamping pressure: Ensure the pressure plate or collet applies even force; too much or too little pressure will jam the bar. Adjust the pneumatic or hydraulic release mechanism accordingly.
Align the material path: Verify that the bar feeder, guide bushing, and spindle centers are collinear; any offset will cause the bar to twist or wedge.
Inspect belts and rollers: Belts must be tensioned correctly—loose belts slip, over-tight belts bind. Replace worn rollers immediately.
Lubricate moving parts: Clean and grease the eccentric shaft, release cam, and pusher fingers; lack of lubrication is a common cause of seizure.
I. Installation Guidelines for Swiss-Type Lathe Bed
1. Foundation Preparation
Floor Requirements: The Swiss lathe bed must be installed on a solid, level concrete foundation to prevent machining inaccuracies caused by ground settlement or vibration.
Load Capacity: The foundation must support the machine’s weight and dynamic cutting forces to avoid deformation affecting spindle and guide bushing alignment.
Vibration Isolation: If the workshop has vibration sources (e.g., punch presses, forging machines), anti-vibration pads or isolation trenches are recommended to enhance CNC machine stability.
Summary
Ball screws are the physical enablers of Swiss-type lathes across five critical dimensions:
Micron-level positioning for complex micro-structures;
High-speed rigidity supporting synchronized multi-axis cutting;
Active thermal control ensuring batch consistency;
Ultra-wear-resistant design enabling maintenance-free operation for 10+ years.
Their performance defines the precision ceiling of Swiss-type machining – truly "invisible champions" in precision transmission.
Parts machined on Swiss-type lathes often feature minute dimensions, complex structures, stringent tolerances (often at the micrometer level), and expensive materials. They are used in high-reliability fields (such as medical and precision instruments). Even the slightest error can lead to part failure. Therefore:
In-machine measurement is the core of process control, ensuring the stability and consistency of the machining process and reducing scrap.
Offline precision inspection is the cornerstone of final quality verification and traceability, providing authoritative reports compliant with international standards to meet customer and regulatory requirements.
Multiple instruments complement each other: No single instrument can solve all problems. CMMs excel at geometric dimensions, roundness/cylindricity testers specialize in rotational bodies, profilometers focus on surface texture, and white light interferometers analyze nanoscale topography. Only through combined use can quality be comprehensively controlled.
Conclusion: The high barriers of Swiss-type machining are reflected not only in the machine tools themselves but also in their supporting high-end measurement ecosystem, which is equally technology-intensive and costly. These precision measuring instruments are the indispensable "eyes" and "brain" ensuring the realization of "Swiss precision" and the flawless quality of complex, miniature parts. The depth and breadth of their application directly reflect a company's true capabilities in the field of high-precision manufacturing.
Turn-mill centers excel at machining complex surfaces thanks to three distinct advantages: single-setup completion, simultaneous 5-axis contouring, and seamless switching between turning and milling. These strengths stem from the machine’s ability to integrate multi-axis linkage with process fusion.
To translate this potential into real gains, four technical measures are indispensable:
A rigid, thermally-stable machine structure driven by direct-drive motors to guarantee high dynamic accuracy.
A CNC system that supports RTCP (Rotation around Tool Center Point) and real-time tool compensation for micron-level precision.
CAM strategies that combine high-speed turning for bulk material removal with 5-axis milling for final surface finishing.
In-process probing and QR-coded traceability to close the quality loop and meet CE certification requirements.
Key precautions include low-deformation fixturing for thin-walled parts, balanced tool magazines that accommodate both turning and milling cutters, thermal-growth compensation of the spindle, collision-checked digital twins, and operators cross-trained in turning and 5-axis milling programming.
As a manufacturer of core machinery—the "mother machines" of the manufacturing industry—JSWAY CNC COMPANY established its presence in Banfu three years ago. With continuous expansion into domestic and international CNC markets, the company has seen a steady increase in orders, pushing the utilization rate of its existing 50,000 m² factory to nearly 100%. To break through production capacity constraints and ensure on-time delivery, JSWAY has decided to construct a second-phase smart factory.
At 11:05 a.m. on July 21, JSWAY CNC held the groundbreaking ceremony for its Phase II workshop at its headquarters in Banfu, Guangdong. General Manager and Chief Engineer Xiang Lingyun led the management team and hundreds of employees in completing a traditional blessing ceremony, a customary practice among Guangdong enterprises.
