What is the meaning of the letter CW CS CA in the general lathe model?

1, lathe CW means: multifunctional general lathe.

This kind of machining object is wide, and the adjustment range of spindle speed and feed is large, so it can process the internal and external surfaces, end faces and internal and external threads of the workpiece. Mainly operated by workers, the production efficiency is low, and it is suitable for single-piece and small-batch production and repair workshops.

2. Lathe CS refers to a special lathe.

Lathe for machining a specific surface of a workpiece, such as crankshaft lathe, camshaft lathe, wheel lathe, axle lathe, roller lathe and ingot lathe.

3. Lathe CA refers to saddle lathe.

Saddle lathe is recessed at the left end of spindle box, which can accommodate large-diameter parts. The lathe is shaped like a saddle, so it is called a saddle lathe.

Saddle lathe is suitable for machining parts with large radial dimension and small axial dimension, turning excircle, inner hole, end face, groove and metric, imperial, modular and radial threads of workpieces, and also for drilling, boring and reaming, especially for single-piece and batch production enterprises. Saddle lathe can process larger diameter workpiece in saddle groove. Hardening and fine grinding of machine tool guide rail, convenient and reliable operation.

Lathe has the characteristics of high power, high speed, strong rigidity, high precision and low noise.

Other lathes

In addition to the above three kinds of lathes, lathes are also divided into the following types: turret and rotary lathes, automatic lathes, multi-tool semi-automatic lathes, copying lathes, vertical lathes, shovel lathes, combined lathes, etc. Each lathe has a different style and different application occasions.
