  1. CNC Lathes Vs Conventional Lathes

  2. Introduction Machining and manufacturing industry has gone through various technological advancements in the last couple of centuries - starting from the Industrial Revolution of the 1820s, who gave away the manual labor for machines, to the introduction of the assembly line in 1913.

  3. CNC Lathe Machine A lathe machine is typically used for shaping the material into the desired form by removing the excess material from a given workpiece. A lathe is also used to perform complex operations such as knurling, deformation, metal spinning, woodturning, thermal spraying, metalworking and more.

  4. Advantages of CNC Lathes Over Conventional Lathes

  5. 1. Doesn’t need highly skilled operators Back in the day, working with lathes required two highly skilled operators - one handling the lathe and the other controlling the material. It was a tough job. Now, with the introduction of computers, the task seems less daunting. You just need one operator, skilled enough to enter the dimensions onto the machine, and let the computer do the rest of the job.

  6. 2. Full automation makes working with CNC lathes easier and quicker Producing hundreds, even millions, of similar dimensions is easier than ever, thanks to modernCNC Lathes. Unlike before, there is a machine-controlled system that enables CNC lathes to produce perfect pieces easier, quicker.

  7. 3. Highly versatile - can be used to make all kinds of products and CNC machines parts Unlike manual lathes, CNC lathes are versatile enough to produce everything you desire - from sturdy furniture pieces and car parts to delicate lamps, crockery and beyond. Shaping cylinder or sphere is easier with CNC lathes. They can be used to produce replacements parts for fellow machines as well.

  8. 4. 99.99% accuracy As less manual labor is involved, the chances of cent percent accuracy are pretty high with CNC lathes. This makes this machine type a top choice in industries where precision is everything, namely aerospace, healthcare, hospitality and beyond. Plus, CNC lathes work with almost every material.

  9. 5. Costs While CNC lathes are a lot costlier than manual lathes, there are a lot of financial factors that makes CNC lathes a favorable choice over the latter. To name some: • Set up costs • Machining cost • Labor costs • Material waste
