CNC Lathe with Live Tooling – Manufacturing without Set-up Change

To meet the ever-changing needs of many customers, precision manufacturing offers a range of capabilities, including live tooling with computer numerical control (CNC) lathes. Providing a high-level of functionality and flexibility, this machinery allows for the creation of economical solutions to complex manufacturing challenges.

CNC Lathes

CNC lathes are designed to fully utilize modern manufacturing processes. To start, operators design a customers part and program the tool paths. Once set and tested, machines fabricate parts and products to exacting standards. With their multiple spindles and ability to mill the work piece, these lathes provide superior products as well as efficiencies. This combination doubles the machine’s capacity. Additionally the user-friendly conversational controls minimize the time spent programming, decreasing the set-up time for each job.

Live Tooling Capabilities

With CNC lathes’ live tooling, manufacturers are able to increase the intricacy of components that can be manufactured. This live tooling allows tools to cut off-center, perform
CNC milling
operations, and create holes on a part’s outer diameter, for example. Completing an entire job without changing the set-up is possible by utilizing these state-of-the-art lathes.

Horizontal CNC Milling and the Mori-Seiki NH4000

CNC Milling is a cutting process in which material is removed from a block by a rotating tool.
Plouse Precision Manufacturing
, a leading single source manufacturer utilizing innovative solutions for manufacturing components and assemblies, uses Horizontal CNC Milling for customers in a variety of industries. Such industries, including aerospace, automotive, medical and defense, come to Plouse for engine components, custom and mold tooling, complex mechanisms and enclosures, as well as customized parts.

Our Harrisburg facility contains a variety of
CNC milling
machines, including the latest Horizontal CNC Milling machine, the Mori-Seiki NH4000. We recently integrated our two Mori-Seiki NH4000 horizontal machining centers (HMC’s) with a 14 station carrier pallet pool system (CPP) into one entity known as a cell.

Plouse can provide its customers with a better value by reducing the different types of “idle” time with the cell. This type of machining efficiently produces parts of different sizes, complexities and quantities. The average parts produced in a given project, run from a few hundred pieces to over 10,000 pieces. Although larger parts can be accommodated, the cell is designed for small to medium sized parts. The cell controller is the “brain” of the cell, storing all the programs and necessary information required for the HMC’s to make the parts. The controller creates a graphical display of the cell layout that shows what is happening in real time within the cell and if there are any problems.
