RE: Computer Numerical Control Lathe Machine over the Manual Lathe Machine

in #machining7 years ago (edited)

@osariemen, it's good to have another engineering personnel in the house. I like the area you have written about as it's one aspect of engineering that complements others. Spares sometimes are not readily available in the market and your best bet is to have it machined. You get to do that even faster and more precise with a CNC machine and thereby saving your company some loss due to production downtime.

I like the idea of you bringing us a practical aspect of CNC. You showing us a job and how it can be carried out is a good one. However, I feel you could do more to give a better illustration of how the codes works to aid the uninitiated.

In all, Kudos!

Thanks for having me

Well you have used a manual lathe machine... Make the job easy because you understand the directions and cardinal points

What else is knowing the g-codes and practicing it... Some of the task can be really task whereby you have to take ur calculator and pens and there is also another vital part call reference point.... There is a code to determine where to take your reference point from which is G28 and G29.... You enjoy it in practical than theory
