Usage Procedure
Preparation and Installation:
- Place the Tacchi FTA51/R660 lathe on a flat and stable surface. Make sure the machinery is leveled and secured correctly.
- Check all connections and fluid levels necessary for operation.
Loading the Piece:
- Place the workpiece on the lathe bench. Use the rests to support the piece if it is particularly long or heavy.
- Secure the piece using the supplied chucks.
Programming and Turning:
- Set machining parameters, such as rotation speed and feed, according to the material and required machining.
- Start the lathe and monitor the process. Automatic feed will facilitate continuous processing.
Control and Maintenance:
- After machining, inspect the workpiece and remove it. Clean the work area and remove chips and debris.
- Check the correct functioning of all components and make any necessary adjustments.
Accessories and Options
The Tacchi FTA51/R660 lathe can be combined with various accessories to improve its functionality, such as:
- Turning Tools: Different types of tools can be used based on specific processes.
- Cooling and Lubrication Systems: To extend the life of tools and improve the quality of workmanship.
Optimal Use Parameters
Cutting Speed (V): The cutting speed can be calculated using the formula:
V=π⋅D⋅N1000V = \frac{\pi \cdot D \cdot N}{1000} V = 1000 π ⋅ D ⋅ N Where DD D is the diameter of the piece and NN N is the rotation speed in rpm.
Feed (F): Feed per revolution is determined with:
F=SNF = \frac{S}{N} F = N S Where SS S is the feed rate and NN N is the number of revolutions.
