Y Axis Lathe, Multi Purpose Lathe Machine With Power Turret

Multi-function lathe description

Multi-purpose turn/mill lathe machine, also known as a mill-turn center or a multi-tasking machine, is a highly versatile CNC machine tool capable of performing both turning and milling operations in a single setup.

Full functions: carving, turning, milling, drilling, and tapping. 

Complicated components (work piece) could be done in one go.

Multi-axis Machining: The CNC machining center typically feature multiple axes of motion, including:

X-axis: Horizontal motion parallel to the lathe's spindle axis.

Y-axis: Vertical motion perpendicular to the lathe's spindle axis, enabling off-center milling and additional machining flexibility.

Z-axis: Longitudinal motion along the lathe's bed, controlling the depth of cut.

C-axis: Rotation of the spindle, allowing for indexing and contouring operations.

B-axis (optional): Rotation of live tooling attachments for performing milling, drilling, and tapping operations at various angles.

Complex Geometries: With multi-axis capabilities, turn/mill lathes can produce parts with complex geometries, including features such as contours, pockets, slots, holes, threads, and tapers. This versatility makes them well-suited for machining components with intricate designs and tight tolerances.
