Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of numerically controlled lathes, and specifically relates to a numerically controlled lathe. Background Art

[0002] The inclined bed turning and milling compound machine tool is an automated machine tool with an inclined bed. The plane where the two guide rails of the inclined bed turning and milling compound machine tool intersect with the ground plane to form an inclined plane, and the angles are 30°, 45°, 60°, and 75°. The bed of the inclined bed turning and milling compound machine tool is in a right triangle. Obviously, in the case of the same guide rail width, the X-axis carriage of the inclined bed is longer than that of the flat bed. The practical significance applied to the lathe is that more tool positions can be arranged, so that a multi-station turret or a power east turret can be equipped, and it has the characteristics of high precision and high efficiency.

[0003] According to the Chinese utility model patent with the existing publication number CN214867301U, it records an inclined bed turning and milling compound machine tool, including an inclined bed, a spindle assembly arranged on the left side of the upper surface of the inclined bed, and a tailstock guide rail arranged on the front side of the right part of the inclined bed. A tailstock assembly matching the tailstock guide rail is arranged above the inclined bed. A saddle guide rail is arranged on the rear side of the right part of the inclined bed. A Y-axis saddle assembly matching the saddle guide rail is arranged above the inclined bed. An X-axis saddle assembly matching the Y-axis saddle assembly is arranged above the Y-axis saddle assembly. A turret assembly matching the X-axis saddle assembly is arranged on the X-axis saddle assembly. A waste material groove is arranged on the upper surface of the inclined bed. Machine bases are arranged on the left and right sides of the lower surface of the inclined bed, and a collection port is formed between the machine bases on the left and right sides. It can quickly complete the discharge of debris while reducing the floor area, and can quickly process the water and remaining debris in the waste material groove after the waste material groove is flushed by water, effectively improving the cleaning efficiency.
