Despite the rampant technical progress, turning is the most popular option for metalworking. The principle of turning is perfect for all bodies of revolution, so it is used in the manufacture of a wide variety of parts.
Modern metal-cutting machines give craftsmen the ability to process shaped, cylindrical, end, conical surfaces. With the use of good machines and the machine operator has a lot of experience, special knowledge, the performance of turning work will be carried out at the highest level. Real professionals are able to give any configuration to a workpiece, while ensuring high dimensional accuracy and surface cleanliness.
Turning is carried out using special cutting tools: cutters, drills, reamers, dies. The following scheme is used as a classic version of the workpiece turning: the workpiece, fixed in the machine spindle, rotates at a very high speed, while the cutter makes a translational motion and cuts off the excess metal layer. Also, on timely machines, you can drill large-diameter holes in metal, grind grooves of any shape, etc.
There are two options for feeding the cutting tool: transverse and longitudinal. When using multifunctional equipment, the angle of inclination of the cutter can be changed, the axis of rotation of the workpiece is changed. All this significantly expands the processing capabilities, allowing the production of parts of any complexity.
Lathes are a large group of equipment that is divided into several categories. The most popular are screw-cutting and boring-turning lathes. When machining large workpieces, the carousel technique becomes more relevant. In general, there are no big differences between these types of machine tools. Often, all work on the processing of a part cannot be performed on one machine. So, for the production of complex parts, several types of metal-cutting equipment can be used at once.
Today, many organizations need products such as shafts, rings, gears, pulleys, couplings, bushings. Therefore, the performance of turning works is in great demand. Today there are a large number of businesses that provide such services. However, it is difficult to find a good specialist who can carry out turning work at the proper level. Therefore, you need to use the services of specialized enterprises with innovative equipment and an impeccable reputation.
