2 Axis CNC Lathe

What is a 2 Axis CNC Lathe ?

   A CNC (Computer Numerical Control) lathe is a type of computer-controlled machining tool that uses rotating tools to cut and shape materials such as metal, plastic, and wood. The lathe's cutting tools move along two axes (X and Z), allowing for precision cuts to be made in a variety of shapes and sizes.
   A CNC lathe can make a wide range of products, from simple components such as bolts and screws to complex parts like engine cylinders and aerospace components. It can produce parts with precise and accurate dimensions, making it an ideal tool for applications that require tight tolerances.

Some of the products that can be made on a CNC lathe include:

  • Shafts and bushings: CNC lathes can make shafts of varying lengths and diameters, as well as bushings with precise dimensions and tight tolerances.

  • Aerospace components: CNC lathes are used to make complex components such as turbines, engine parts, and landing gear parts.

  • Automotive parts: CNC lathes can produce a wide range of automotive parts such as brake rotors, crankshafts, and pistons.

  • Electronics components: CNC lathes can make components such as connectors, switches, and sockets for electronic devices.

Overall, CNC lathes are a versatile and powerful tool that can produce a wide range of products with high precision and accuracy.
