What Is CNC Turning?

Tornitura CNC is a computer-controlled machining process used to create cylindrical or rotational parts. It falls under the broader category of lathe operation, where a cutting tool removes material from a rotating workpiece to shape it into the desired form. Unlike manual lathe work, CNC (Controllo numerico computerizzato) turning uses pre-programmed software to control tool movement, ensuring precision and repeatability.​

The core of rotary cutting in CNC turning involves two main components: the workpiece (held in a chuck and rotated) and the cutting tool (moved along multiple axes to carve out features like threads, grooves, or tapers). This process is ideal for producing symmetrical parts, such as shafts, bolts, bushings, and cylindrical housings.

Our CNC Turning Capabilities

Alla tecnologia Yigu, we pride ourselves on a versatile set of CNC turning capabilities to meet diverse industry needs. Below is a breakdown of our key strengths:

Capability​Description​
Lavorazione di precisioneAchieve ultra-tight tolerances (±0.001 to ±0.005 mm) for critical components.​
High Volume ProductionEfficiently handle large batch orders with consistent quality and short lead times.​
Custom PartsCreate one-of-a-kind or low-volume custom parts tailored to your exact specifications.​
Complex GeometriesProduce parts with intricate features (per esempio., internal holes, discussioni, tapers) using multi-axis technology.​
Tight TolerancesMaintain dimensional accuracy for parts requiring strict performance standards (per esempio., dispositivi medici, componenti aerospaziali).

We also offer design support to optimize your part for CNC turning, ensuring manufacturability and cost savings.

Processo: Step-by-Step CNC Turning Workflow

The CNC turning process at Yigu Technology follows a structured, quality-focused workflow to deliver reliable results. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

  1. Impostare: Prepare the CNC lathe by mounting the workpiece in a chuck and securing the appropriate cutting tools. This step ensures stability and alignment.​
  1. Programming: Develop a G-code program (using CAD/CAM software) that defines the tool path, velocità di taglio, and feed rate based on your part’s design.​
  1. Tool Selection: Choose the right cutting tools (per esempio., carbide, acciaio rapido) based on the material (per esempio., alluminio, acciaio inossidabile) and desired finish.​
  1. Material Loading: Load the raw material (per esempio., metal bar, plastic rod) into the lathe, ensuring it is centered and secured.​
  1. Cutting: The lathe rotates the workpiece, and the cutting tool moves along pre-programmed axes to remove material and shape the part.​
  1. Inspection: After cutting, parts undergo thorough inspection using tools like calipers, micrometers, and CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machines) to check dimensions.​

Controllo qualità: Final quality checks ensure parts meet all specifications (tolerances, finish, proprietà del materiale) before delivery.

Materiali: Options for CNC Turning

We work with a wide range of materials to suit different application requirements, from lightweight plastics to high-strength metals. Below is a table of common materials and their key uses:

Our team can recommend the best material for your project based on factors like strength, costo, and environmental conditions.

CNC turning Surface Treatment: Enhancing Part Performance

Surface treatment is a critical step in CNC turning, as it improves a part’s durability, aspetto, e funzionalità. Here are the most common treatments we offer:

  • Finitura: Basic processes to smooth rough edges and remove burrs, ensuring safety and fit.​
  • Grinding: Uses abrasive tools to achieve a precise surface finish (per esempio., Ra 0.8 µm) for high-precision parts.​
  • Lucidatura: Creates a shiny, reflective surface for aesthetic or sanitary applications (per esempio., attrezzature mediche).
  • Coating: Applies layers like powder coating or PTFE (Teflon) to enhance corrosion resistance or reduce friction.​
  • Painting: Adds color and protection against environmental damage (common in consumer goods).
  • Anodizing: An electrochemical process that forms a protective oxide layer on aluminum, improving durability and appearance.​

Electroplating: Coats parts with metals like chrome or nickel to enhance conductivity, resistenza alla corrosione, or aesthetics.

CNC turning Tolerances: Ensuring Precision in Every Part

Tolerances measure the allowable variation in a part’s dimensions, and tight tolerances are critical for parts that need to fit or function perfectly. Alla tecnologia Yigu, we specialize in achieving some of the industry’s strictest tolerances:

Tolerance Range​Precision Level​Typical Applications​
±0.001 mmUltra-high​Medical implants, aerospace components​
±0.005 mmHigh​Precision gears, electrical connectors​
±0.01 mmMedium​Automotive parts, industrial components​
±0.05 mmStandard​Non-critical consumer goods​

We use advanced inspection tools (per esempio., CMMs) to verify precisione dimensionale and ensure every part meets your specified tolerance requirements. Our commitment to precisione E precisione means you can trust your parts to perform as intended.
