CNC Turning Centers

What are the benefits of CNC Turning Centers?

 

CNC Turning Centers (or CNC Machines) are extremely critical in the manufacturing process. Through computer numerical controls, the user has complete control over the manufacturing process of unique metal and wood workpieces. This allows the operator to create intricate workpieces that are manufactured with a high level of accuracy and precision. In fact, with the help of a CNC Turning Center, you can expect a multitude of benefits. These include an increase in production efficiency, consistent quality control, as well as a simultaneous reduction in manufacturing costs. 

 

Why Should I buy a Used CNC Machine?

 

Despite the tremendous number of reasons why a CNC machine is beneficial, the reality is they can get extremely expensive. In fact, many of these machines can range between $50,000 – $500,000 per machine making it a huge investment. Fortunately, a great alternative for this would be to consider buying a used CNC machine. In fact, a reliable used CNC machine can help provide consistent high quality, at a fraction of the cost. This makes buying a used cnc machine, the best all in one solution.

 

What Should I Consider before buying a CNC Lathe for Sale or CNC Machine for Sale in general?

 

We understand that the purchasing process for CNC machines can be tedious. As a result here are a few tips when looking to buy a CNC Lathe for sale or CNC machine for sale that you should consider:

 

Initial inspection: Make sure that you buy from a supplier that provides a thorough initial inspection of the machine you are looking to purchase. Suppliers will generally use a multitude of inspection equipment and gauges that are typically used in Quality Control and in line inspection. Examples of material testing equipment includes, using a CMM, Shadowgraph, Hardness tester, Tensile tester as well as all types of dimensional measuring instruments. In addition to that, dimensional instruments should also be used to check the overall machine accuracies. Considering that many machines are shipped internationally, it is critical to know that your machine has been properly inspected and satisfies the necessary safety guidelines. 

 

Analyze the specification/data sheet: No matter where you decide to purchase your CNC machine from, always make sure to consult with the machine's data sheet. This sheet contains important information such as:

-Model number

-Serial number

-Rated Capacity

-Rated Current

-Manufacturing Year

-Manufacturing Location

 

Also realize that with the serial number you can figure out how long the machine has been used for by directly contacting the original equipment manufacturer. 

 

In addition to the data sheet also make sure that you look at the specification sheet. This contains information such as:

-The traveling axes (X, Y, Z)

-The spindle speed

-Table size

-Load capacity of Table

-Table index

-Additional attachments (coolant tanks, chiller, chip blaster etc.)

 

It is critical to do your research prior to purchasing so you are fully aware of what you need for your manufacturing processes.

 

Request for a manual

Finally, always make sure to request a manual of operation for your used CNC machine. Different machine models may differ so it’s important to use the manual to understand the programming, electrical and maintenance guidelines of your machine.
