Compared with traditional lathes, CNC vertical lathes have the following advantages:

1. High degree of automation: CNC vertical lathe adopts computer numerical control system, which can realize automatic processing operation. By pre-writing the program, the processing path, speed, depth and other parameters of the workpiece can be precisely controlled without manual intervention. This greatly increases production efficiency and reduces the possibility of human error.
2. High precision and repeatability: CNC vertical lathe has higher machining precision and can achieve more accurate machining results. Since the CNC system can precisely control the trajectory and speed of the tool, the influence of human factors is avoided, thereby improving the machining accuracy and repeatability of the workpiece.
3. High production efficiency: CNC vertical lathe has the characteristics of high-speed cutting, multi-station processing and continuous processing, and can complete complex processing tasks in a short period of time. Compared with traditional lathes, CNC vertical lathes can quickly switch between processing programs and workpieces, reducing preparation time for tool changes and fixture adjustments, and improving production efficiency.
4. Strong flexibility and adaptability: CNC vertical lathe can adapt to the processing of workpieces of different shapes, sizes and materials by changing tools and adjusting parameters. The processing of different workpieces can be realized only by modifying the processing program, and the flexibility is higher. However, traditional lathes need to change tools and adjust the machine tool to adapt to different workpieces, which is time and costly.
5. Strong ability to process complex curved surfaces: CNC vertical lathe can perform multi-axis control and interpolation motion, and can realize the processing of complex curved surfaces, such as inclined planes and helical surfaces. Traditional lathes cannot easily process complex surfaces due to manual operations and tool limitations.

In summary, compared with traditional lathes, CNC vertical lathes have many advantages such as high automation, high precision and repeatability, high production efficiency, strong flexibility, and strong ability to process complex surfaces, making them widely used in modern manufacturing industries. application.
