Is It Dangerous to Operate a CNC Lathe?

Users often ask whether it is dangerous to operate a CNC lathe when purchasing a CNC lathe. The CNC lathe is still very safe compared to ordinary lathes! Lathes are protected by protective doors during normal processing. It is safe to operate lathe equipment. One convenience is the safety design and protection of the CNC lathe. The other aspect is the operation user's awareness of the operation and safety of the equipment. For an operator who does not know anything about CNC lathes, the danger can be imagined. CNC lathe machine manufacturer believes that: personal understanding of CNC lathes and safe operation specifications are very important.

Precautions for safe use of CNC vertical lathe


Basic precautions for safe operation:


a. Please wear work clothes and safety shoes when you work, otherwise, you are not allowed to enter the workshop. The shirt should be tied into the pants, and the overalls, collar, and cuffs should be fastened. Sandals, slippers, high heels, vests, skirts, and scarves are not allowed to enter the workshop to avoid burns. It is forbidden to operate the machine tool with gloves. If you have long hair, you need to wear a hat or hair net. b. All experimental steps must be conducted under the guidance of the training teacher. Without the consent of the instructor, it is not allowed to start the machine tool. c. It is strictly forbidden to leave the work post to do anything unrelated to the operation while the machine tool is running. It is strictly forbidden to play and play in the workshop. When the machine tool starts, it is strictly forbidden to shuttle between the machine tools. d. The internship should be conducted on the designated machine tool and computer. Without permission, other machine tool equipment, tools or electrical switches shall not be disturbed. e. If a certain task requires two or more people to work together, you should pay attention to the coordination between them. f. Before starting the machine, a comprehensive and detailed inspection should be carried out on the CNC lathe, including the operation panel, guide surface, jaws, tailstock, tool holder, tool, etc., and only after confirming that it is correct.

Preparation before work:


a. The machine tool must be warmed up before starting work, and carefully check whether the lubrication system is working properly. If the machine tool has not been started for a long time, you can manually supply oil to each part for lubrication. b. Before the instructor confirms that the program is correct, it is not allowed to move the "machine tool lock" status key set on the operation box. c. Tighten the workpiece: ensure that the workpiece is firmly fixed on the workbench. d. Remove the adjustment tools: Before starting the machine tool, check whether the tools such as the handle and wedge have been removed from the machine tool.


Safety precautions during work:


a. After the CNC lathe is powered on, check whether the switches, buttons, and buttons are normal, flexible and whether the machine tool is abnormal. b. After the program is input, you should carefully check whether the code, address, value, sign, decimal point, and grammar are correct. d. Correctly measure and calculate the workpiece coordinate system, and check the results. d. Enter the workpiece coordinate system, and carefully check the coordinates, coordinate values, signs, and decimal points. e. Before the workpiece is installed, run the program once empty to see whether the program can be carried out smoothly, whether the tool and fixture are installed reasonably, and whether there is overtravel. f. The quick override switch must be in the lower gear during trial cutting. g. During the trial cutting feed, after the tool runs to the workpiece 30 ~ 50㎜, it must be kept underfeed to verify whether the remaining values of the Z-axis and X-axis coordinates are consistent with the processing program. h. During trial cutting and processing, after sharpening the tool and replacing the tool, the tool position should be re-measured and the tool offset value and tool offset number should be modified. 9. After the program is revised, the revised part should be carefully checked. i. The machine tool must be started after confirming that the workpiece is clamped. It is strictly forbidden to measure or touch the workpiece while it is rotating. j. When abnormal conditions such as workpiece jumping, shaking, abnormal sound, loose fixture, etc. occur during operation, it must be stopped for processing. k. After an emergency stop, the machine should be re-zeroed to run the program again.

Therefore, it is safe and unsafe to operate the CNC horizontal lathe. On the one hand, it is the safety protection of the machine tool equipment. Second, the operator's knowledge and proficiency of the equipment. maintain.
