INNOVATIVE METHODS OF EXPANDING THE FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITIES OF THE SINGLE-SPINDLE LATHE

Abstract

Turret lathes, which are automated turret machines, are widely used in large-scale and mass production. The use of automatic machines in small-scale production, which has a significant specific weight in instrument construction, was considered inadvisable until recently due to the fact that their reconfiguration takes a lot of time. Currently, thanks to the expansion of processing methods, which allow with minimal time consumption to go from the production of one part to the production of another part of the same group, automatic machines are increasingly used in small-scale production. The introduction of innovative methods to expand the technological capabilities of machines should go not only by increasing the accuracy of processing, a wider use of the expansion of functionality can be realized by equipping with auxiliary devices that can perform operations that improve the production of parts. One of the ways to improve the productivity of the automatic lathe is to use shaped cutters, which allow you to process the part faster and with better quality, and with the help of developing a methodology for calculating and adjusting the cams. The expansion of the technological capabilities of automatic machines should not only go by increasing the accuracy of processing, a wider use of the expansion of functional capabilities can be realized by equipping them with auxiliary devices that can perform such operations that improve production. One of the ways to improve the productivity of the automatic lathe is to use shaped cutters, which allow you to process the part faster and with better quality, and with the help of developing a methodology for calculating and adjusting the cams. Therefore, the topic of the article is relevant.
