Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cutting tools, in particular to a cutting tool for a CNC numerically controlled lathe. Background Art

[0002] CNC lathe tools are cutting tools used on computer numerically controlled lathes, primarily in the machining field. Through programming, they enable precise machining of internal and external cylindrical surfaces, conical surfaces, complex rotating surfaces, and threads on shafts and discs. In addition to basic turning operations, CNC lathes can also perform grooving, drilling, reaming, reaming, and boring. Their versatility meets a wide range of machining needs, from simple to complex.

[0003] Traditional CNC cutting tools, due to their fixed size and shape, cannot be folded, thus taking up a lot of space during storage and transportation. This not only increases storage costs but also limits workplace space planning. Furthermore, after use, the exposed tool head is easily damaged due to the lack of folding function, which affects subsequent processing results. Therefore, we propose a cutting tool for CNC lathes.
