What is the difference between large vertical lathe and horizontal lathe?
Large Vertical Lathe Machine is mainly processing large diameter, short length of large heavy parts.If you use the horizontal lathe to clamp too heavy workpiece, which will affect the processing accuracy. Large vertical Lathe Machine processing can solve this problem well.
For example, vertical lathe machine can process disc, wheel and other cylindrical surfaces, and Vertical Lathe Machines can also process conical surface, end face and so on. Vertical Lathes are generally divided into two types, single column and double column. Small vertical lathes are usually single column, and large vertical lathes are made into double columns.When the workpiece is installed, the adjustment of the vertical lathe machine is more convenient. The worktable is supported by the guide rail, which can make the cutting smooth. The vertical lathe machine is equipped with several knife frames to achieve rapid knife change.
The spindle of Horizontal Lathe Machine is horizontal. It can rotate in horizontal plane. The tool rack moves longitudinally along the lathe itself. Horizontal lathe machine can be used to cut various rotations or internal and external threads. CNC horizontal lathe is a numerical control lathe for automatic knife exchange, which can be processed in multi-process processing for a workpiece with a fixture.
