What are the advantages of Turn-milling machining?

Compound machining is the realization of several different machining processes on only one machine tool. It is widely used globally. Turn-milling compound machining center is actually equivalent to a combination of a CNC lathe and a CNC machining center. 

What is Turn-milling compound machining?

Turn-milling is a kind of mechanical machining service. It is not a simple combination of turning and milling into one machine tool, but the use of turn-milling synthetic motion to complete the processing of various kinds of surfaces. Actually, it is a new cutting theory and technology under the great development of numerical control technology.

What are the advantages of turn-milling processing

Compared to other normal mechanical machining, it has some incomparable advantages of turn-milling. Let us share them with you below:

Firstly, it reduce clamping times and improves machining accuracy.

The reduction of clamping times avoids the error accumulation caused by the conversion of positioning datum. At the same time, most of the current turn-milling compound processing equipment has the function of online detection, which can realize the on-site detection and precision control of key data in the manufacturing process. Thereby improving the processing accuracy of products;

High-strength integrated bed design improves the gravity processing capacity for difficult-to-cut materials. The machine is equipped with an automatic feeding device. And automatic feeding enables continuous and basic line operation of a single machine line operation.

Secondly,  it reduces the machine footprint and saves processing costs.

Compact and beautiful shape design improves the way of space utilization. It achieves more convenient facilitates maintenance and repair. So that customers get the maximum satisfaction.     

Although the single unit price of such equipment is relatively higher. However, we would reduce costs related in other ways. For example, a shorter manufacturing process chain, less equipment required for the product, fewer jigs and fixtures, less workshop area, and less cost for maintaining the equipment. 

Thirdly, it reduces the product processing procedures and improves processing efficiency.

We can install a variety of special cutting tools on turn-milling compound machines. New cutting tool layout helps to reduce tool changing time. That improves processing efficiency.

With this equipment, all or most of the processing procedures can be completed with only one-time clamping. Secondary processing is not necessary or much less. Thus it greatly reduces the product manufacturing process chain. In this way, it reduces not only the auxiliary time of production but also the manufacturing cycle time and waiting time. At last, it improves the machining efficiency.

Top Level Intl. has some Turn-Milling compound machines in the factory and they can help us to speed up the production and reduce procurement cost for you.

Turn-Milling compound machining is more and more important in current industrial manufacturing, especially in the medical field and aerospace & aviation. It has the superiority which other mechanical processing ways can not compare with. With the functions of turning, milling, etc.,  It can realize the machining idea of turning and milling in one clamping.
