The twin turret CNC lathe features two independent turrets that can machine both sides of the same part at the same time or machine two different parts simultaneously, minimizing downtime and making it particularly suitable for large-scale roughing and finishing machining based on your needs.
Our twin turret CNC lathes are particularly suitable for machining bushings, connection pins, male stud bodies, punches, demo connectors, and more symmetrical parts due to their ability to complete double-sided high-precision machining in one clamping. Besides, when you need to machine composite components, our twin-turret CNC lathes allow you to use dedicated tools on each turret. We can always satisfy your needs for production.
Our twin turret CNC lathes feature a strong machining capacity due to their flexible configurations. We provide both single-spindle twin-turret CNC lathes and twin-spindle twin-turret CNC lathes, available in slant bed or flat bed. Tailstocks are available to support larger and longer workpieces. There are also models that include Y-axis functionality, enabling them to perform milling, drilling, and tapping operations.
Please send your inquiry about the details of the twin turret CNC lathe. We can provide you with the most cost-effective solutions according to your project.
Maximum Efficiency
Our twin-turret CNC lathes can perform two processes simultaneously. Equipped with a direct-drive electric spindle without belts, it can greatly improve the efficiency of axial movement and provide you with unparalleled processing efficiency.
Minimum Roughness
The main structure of our twin turret CNC lathe is made of high-rigidity HT300 cast iron, absorbing the shock and vibrations during processes. Plus, the direct-drive motorized spindles eliminate vibrations, providing a consistent finishing surface.
Easy Operation
Oturn’s twin turret CNC lathes feature a user-friendly interactive interface, allowing your operators to easily operate the twin turret CNC lathe with fewer clicks. Equipped with FANUC’s CNC system for expanded memory capacity and simple programming.
Positive Y-Axis
The positive Y-axis allows the twin turret CNC lathe to machine the flat parts better than interpolation, providing a smoother surface for parts, reducing the need for secondary machining operations, saving time, and improving accuracy by minimizing the number of setups. Suitable for high-precision surface processing.
- Shaft: Including various shafts with threads, grooves, and tapers
- Bushing and Sleeves: Bushings and sleeves require high-precision dimensions and smooth surfaces.
- Connectors and Pins: Twin turret CNC lathes can produce a range of connectors and pins, including those with complex geometries or tight tolerances.
- Valve Bodies: Using twin turret CNC lathes can significantly improve the efficiency of boring or drilling while simultaneously turning features.
- What are the main factors to be considered when choosing a twin turret CNC lathe?
Turret configurations: It includes the number of tool stations(from 8 to 24), the motor type of turret(the servo turret or power turret), and the position and movement of the turret(it affects chip removal efficiency and workpiece length), etc.
Spindle: Choose the power and torque of a twin-turret CNC lathe based on the material you need to process, the amount of cutting, and the size of the part. Finishing often requires a higher spindle speed. If you need turning and milling compound machining, you should choose a model with a C-axis function. When you need flipping, you should consider a twin-spindle twin-turret CNC lathe.
Others: You should also pay attention to many factors such as the material and structure of the twin-tower CNC lathe itself, the guide rail type, the chip removal design, the control system, etc.
- What are the differences between a servo turret and a power turret?
First, the servo turret is powered by a servo motor with high-precision feedback control. The power turret is usually powered by a hydraulic or electric motor with a higher power output.
Second, the servo turret features excellent repeatability and faster tool change, suitable for finishing machining. The power turret is usually more suitable for roughing machining.
Third, the servo turret can only handle the turning process because only the turning tools can be installed on the turret. However, both the milling tools and the turning tools can be installed on a power turret, making it more suitable for a turning and milling compound machining.
- What are the common applications of twin turret CNC lathes?
Every industry requires larger productivity and higher precision. Typical applications of the twin turret CNC lathe include the automotive industry, medical implants, joint parts, the aerospace industry, etc.
- What materials can a twin turret CNC lathe process?
Various metals, such as steel, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, brass, copper, and other alloys, are also machinable on the twin turret CNC lathe.
Except for metal materials, non-metal materials such as plastics, delrin, wax, and more can also be machined by the twin turret CNC lathe.
- Is a twin turret CNC lathe horizontal or vertical?
A twin turret CNC lathe can be either horizontal or vertical. The main differences between a horizontal twin turret CNC lathe and a vertical CNC lathe lie in the location of the spindle and their applications. The vertical twin turret CNC lathe is more suitable for machining larger parts, while the horizontal twin turret CNC lathe features a better chips removal performance. Since the twin turret usually works at a very fast machining speed, the horizontal version usually provides a better machining performance. In addition, the horizontal twin turret CNC lathe takes up more space than vertical ones, which may be another factor that affects your decision.
