The layout of the CNC lathe tool rest

the level of the numerical control lathe bed of good manufacturability, easy to guide the processing. Horizontal lathe bed with knife slimming level equipment can progress rate of movement of the tool post, generally can be used for the layout of the large or small precision CNC lathe numerical control lathe. Horizontal lathe bed bottom, however, the space is little, which causes the difficulty in chip removal. Look from structural dimension, tool carrier placed makes slide transverse dimension is longer, thus make the structure of the machine tool width dimension. Horizontal lathe bed with skewed placed skateboard and equipment layout of skewed type guide rail protective cover, with horizontal lathe bed manufacturability good characteristics. The level of the scale of the machine tool width equipment skateboarding, and chip removal is very convenient. Horizontal lathe bed with skewed placed skateboard and slant bed equipped with inclined slide layout was widespread use by small and medium-sized CNC lathe. This is due to the two kinds of layout of chip removal easy, chip won't pile up on the guide rail, also facilitate equipment active chip removal device; End manipulator operation is convenient, easy to machine to single active; Machine cover an area of an area small, appearance is concise, beautiful, easy to closed end protection. Explanation for everybody below the layout of the CNC lathe tool post: CNC lathe tool rest is an important part of the machine tool, cutting tool carrier is used for clamping tool, thus, it directly affect the cutting performance of machine tool structure and cutting power, surely in extent, head structure and performance reflects the level of planning and production CNC lathe. Followed the development of numerical control lathe tool post structure mode innovation, but in general can be roughly divided into two categories, namely the knife type tool rest and turret head. Some turning center still choose active in knife knife library of equipment. Row of knife rest is commonly used in small numerical control lathe, each kind of cutting tools is put and clamping on the movable slide, can take the initiative to end when positioning tool changer. Turret head also called tower or knife sets, there are vertical and horizontal structure of two kinds of ways. With tool active positioning equipment, through the rotation of the turret head end, dividing and positioning to active tool change machine. Degree of turret head should be accurate and reliable positioning, high repeat positioning accuracy, transfer speed, clamping cut sex good, to ensure the high precision and high power of CNC lathe. Some turret head end not only can active positioning, will also be able to transfer power. At present, more than two coordinates linkage lathe with 12 station turret tool post, also have choose 6, 8, 10 station turret head. The layout of the turret head on the machine tool has two ways: one is used for processing plate parts turret head, the rotating shaft is perpendicular to the main shaft; Another kind is used for manufacturing axial and plate parts turret head, the rotating shaft is parallel to the axis. Four coordinate control Ji CNC lathe bed equipment has two independent board and turret tool post, so called double four-axis CNC lathe. Meanwhile, each head cutting feeding is controlled, thus, two different parts of the tool rest can at the same time cutting the same workpiece, expanding the processing scope, and improved the processing power. Four-axis CNC lathe has a complex structure and demand equipment specialized CNC system, the end of two independent manipulation of the tool post, suitable for processing complicated shape, such as crankshaft, aircraft parts batch larger parts.

Zhongshan JSTOMI CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd. thinks that that firms can avoid the artificial choice between quantitative and qualitative risk management, allowing both to play important roles in surfacing and assessing risks.

During Zhongshan JSTOMI CNC Machine Tool Co., Ltd. ’s existence in a market we didn’t receive any negative feedback from our customers.

Equipping cnc service with innovative technology and updated processes will simplify daily compliance duties so that they can focus on attracting, retaining, and developing the most engaged workforce possible.

 JSWAY CNC COMPANY makes sliding quieter, more accurate and longer-lasting





I. Functional role
Slideways are the “track” between the guide rail and the moving parts. They convert the rotary (or linear) thrust of the servo motor into precise linear motion of the machine table, spindle box or turret, while withstanding cutting reaction forces, shocks and vibrations. Once the slideway fails, the positioning accuracy and surface quality of the whole machine will drop directly.
II. Common structure family


Linear ball slideway
Steel balls are in point contact with the raceway, low friction and fast response, suitable for high-speed and light-load Swiss-type lathes or vertical machining centers.


Linear roller slideway
Cylindrical rollers are in line contact with the raceway, high rigidity and large load capacity, the first choice for heavy-cutting equipment such as turn-mill centers and gantry five-face machines.


Dovetail slideway
Triangular interlocking surface, extremely strong lateral force resistance, often used in grinders or ultra-precision machining units that require micro-feed.


Hydrostatic/hydraulic slideway
Oil film supports moving parts, almost zero wear, used for mirror grinding or heavy-duty boring machines, but demanding on the oil supply system.
Peace Through Development, Excellence Through Quality — JSWAY CNC COMPANY



On September 3, 2025, China solemnly commemorated the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Behind the pageantry that displayed national strength and a commitment to peace, countless Chinese manufacturers are injecting their craftsmanship and cooperative spirit into the global economy. JSWAY CNC COMPANY is one of them, answering the call for peace and development in its own way.
For two decades JSWAY has focused on high-configuration, high-precision, high-speed CNC lathes and Swiss-type lathes. Products now reach more than thirty countries and regions, illustrating the principle of “peace through development, excellence through quality.”
True high-end manufacturing is not only technological breakthrough but also stability of quality. JSWAY’s plant houses about forty thousand square metres of floor space, producing Swiss-type lathes, turn-mill centres, gang-tool lathes and turret lathes. Critical components are machined on horizontal machining centres, gantry-type five-face machining centres and precision grinders, ensuring consistent accuracy.
An engineering data centre and joint laboratory use laser interferometers, eddy-current displacement testers, wireless rotary axis calibrators, high-precision digital temperature sensors and real-time machine-error compensation systems to upgrade products continuously.
