Part 6/9:
For parts that are primarily cylindrical, lathes replace mills as the go-to machinery. In this process, the tool remains stationary while the part spins, which is ideal for achieving concentricity in cylindrical designs. JLC CNC's lathes also provide the capability to drill off-center holes and ensure efficient and high-quality machining of round components.
Tool Management and Versatility
Tool management plays a significant role in optimizing production efficiency. Intelligent systems, such as a vending machine for end mills, help streamline tool replacement. This facial recognition technology tracks inventory and allows workers to quickly replace worn tools without disrupting the workflow.
