Technological progress has revolutionized the way parts and components are manufactured. The rapidly developing machine production, of which CNC lathes are a part, has also caused a transformation in the turning of cylindrical parts. In the world of lathes, two basic types of machines dominate. Manual lathes or otherwise manual (conventional) and CNC (Computer Numerical Control) lathes. Let's examine the key differences between these two solutions, highlighting their advantages, limitations, and how they complement each other in the machining industry.

The precision, versatility and speed of FAT lathes make them irreplaceable in many industries. These machines are used in many industries such as: machine, shipbuilding, and energy. Numerically controlled machines are an inseparable element of modern industry and their automated functions are successfully used in large-scale machinining, with an increased level of difficulty.

Rising electricity prices mean that optimizing energy consumption in CNC lathes can yield huge savings for companies, increasing their competitiveness in the market. The comprehensive approach to optimizing energy consumption when working on FAT lathes covers key areas such as:

• the use of modern, energy-saving technologies
• selection of the right CNC machine and modern cutting tools
• proper maintenance and inspection of CNC machines

There are several interesting episodes in the history of our company that few people remember today, but they constitute a significant contribution to the development of the production of Polish machine tools.

In industrial production, we distinguish various types of machining of raw materials from which appropriate tools and components are produced. This is also the case with the production of downhole drill tools, which is a key process for the oil & gas industry. Drill tools are used to drill holes in the ground or rocks, which can be used in the search for natural resources, oil drilling, geotechnics, construction or drilling deep wells.

CNC lathes made by FAT HACO are perfect for the oil industry. They are used, among others, to perform various tasks related to metal and plastic machinning. Here are some specific applications of lathes in the oil industry:

CNC lathes manufactured by FAT HACO find their customers all over the world. We can boast that they even reach such remote countries of the world as the Philippines. We recently refreshed our contact with Indexss (International Drilling Exploration Supply And Services, Incorporated) who has been using our machines for more than 11 years. By focusing on responsible relations with contractors, we try to provide professional support even in hard-to-reach places.

Service of CNC lathes is extremely important to maintain the efficiency and performance of these advanced machines. Here are some basic information and tips for servicing CNC machines

When thinking about buying a CNC machine for your company, we often face a dilemma in which equipment to invest to meet our expectations. Therefore, it is worth paying attention to the value for money and whether the chosen machine model will be suitable for the type of machinning that we do in our plant. Finally, we select the tooling and the necessary components.

In machining, the measuring probe plays an important role in monitoring the machining process as well as the dimensional accuracy and quality of the manufactured parts. One of the methods that improves the detail and accuracy of a part or tool when working with automated material machining on FAT HACO lathes is the installation and use of measuring probes. Here are some applications of measuring probes in machining:
