Definition of Automatic Bar Lathe

An Automatic Bar Lathe is a lathe that can work autonomously with minimum human intervention by using bar raw material that is feed trough a bar feeder. Whereas a Lathe is a machine tool that rotates its axis to make different operations like sanding, cutting, knurling, facing, turning, drilling etc. these machines can be used to make complex designs with pure accuracy in dimensions as well as providing extreme rigidity for long term usage. These machines can be of many variations for different and for more complex purpose such as mechanical, electro-mechanical, hydraulic or electronic type. According to the degree of automation machine tools can be classified as non-automatic, semiautomatic & automatic.

Processing of Automatic Bar Lathe

At first the bar stock is pushed through the stock tube in a bracket and by the means of collect chuck, the forward end is clamped in rotating spindle. For the next part, the stock feeding mechanism bar is fed out. The tools that are mounted on the turret slide are used to make the central hole. Form tools like parting off and cutting off tools are mounted on turret slide and at the end of each turret slide which is drawn automatically will bring the next tool to position. As this is an automatic lathe tool, the working cycle is fully automated and can be instructed to make duplicate parts without any involvement of the operator itself. All the steps of works done in this machine such as feeding of raw material, parting off, UN loading of finished parts etc., are done on machine itself.

Where, and for what, machine tools in Automatic Bar Lathes are used?

Most of the watch making, automotive, digital equipment & medical component manufacturers are using this machinery to build small but precise materials and screws for their watches. Automatics and semi-automatic lathe tools are generally used for these following purposes:- Centering, cut off, grinding, cylindrical turning, tapered, formed surfaces, drilling, boring, reaming, facing, knurling, thread cutting, facing, milling etc. but with help of some of the special attachments, additional operations like slotting can also be performed on this machine.
