CNC vertical turning center
max. ø 520 mm | TC52
CAORLE
The lathe TC52 has been conceived to turn the various types of brake shoes of trucks, busses and light commercial vehicles in a precise and fast way.
The brake shoes assembly is fixed on the rotating table by means of some accessories specifically designed to exactly reproduce the same situation of the same ones when mounted on the wheel hub and the turning is executed by a vertical movement of the toolholder.
The intermittent feeding
The lathe TC52 works by means of the well known intermittent feeding.
By means of the intermittent feeding, which acts on the displacement of the tool-holder group, the tool engraves parallels circles on the brake shoes surface. We avoid in this way the formation of the classical spiral effect on the turned surface which is the main responsible of the axial displacement of the brake shoes and of their early wear and tear.
Structural characteristics
The bed lathe is a strong electro-welded steel structure
The tool holder group is held by a couple of hardened and chromium plated steel bars with movement on ball bushings .
