Deep hole drilling
Deep hole drilling
Drilling long holes over 42 times the diameter in a CNC lathe
Usually in components where lubrication or coolant is necessary deep holes can be found in the workpiece to access required positions. The question is often if it is feasible to do it in a CNC lathe. There are machines dedicated to deep hole drilling, but in some cases, they can be done in the same operation in the lathe.
Drilling long holes over 42 times the diameter in a CNC lathe is possible.
This document will explain what is necessary to do an axial hole in a CMZ TD series machine (TD-35-Y-2200).

Polygon Turning
Polygon turning is a process through which flat planes are obtained on the piece through synchronized rotation of the spindle and the live tool. Polygon turning can be performed on our CMZ CNC lathes. It is an alternative process to milling each surface individually. It is more similar to lathing…

Gear Hobbing on a CNC lathe
The geometry of the gear in the gear hobbing process is obtained by the synchronised movement between the spindle and the live tool. The limit to manufacture gears in a CMZ CNC lathe is around the hob tool being able to produce the required profile but for occasional machining. Bigger gears require…
