Front Feeding CNC Automatic Lathe
Front feeding CNC automatic lathe is highly specialized branch of automatic lathe field, known as "efficiency engine for high-volume production of short and small shaft parts". It is specifically designed for precision shafts, pins, bolts, connectors, and similar parts typically under 80mm in length requiring continuous high-volume production.
Its defining feature is feeding mechanism located directly in front of spindle headstock, enabling work cycle to form simple and efficient closed loop. This structural design sacrifices long-bar machining capability of general-purpose lathes, yet achieves ultimate balance of efficiency, cost, and stability in its specialized "short, small, high-mix" domain. It stands as classic equipment for implementing "lights-out factory" and "one operator, multiple machines" management models in modern discrete manufacturing.

Equipment Manufacturing Process
Sample Evaluation & Requirement Alignment
We will first conduct actual measurement and analysis on raw material sample you provide, including material confirmation, dimensional measurement, clamping point evaluation, and initial test cut, serving as objective foundation for all subsequent technical design. At same time, we will have in-depth communication with you to clarify specific machining process, accuracy requirements, production cycle time, and capacity target.
Solution Design & Written Confirmation
Based on measured data and mutually agreed requirements, we will tailor detailed machine design solution for you. This solution requires joint review and confirmation by both parties to ensure complete alignment of design direction and avoid future misunderstanding.
Contract Signing & Project Kick-off
After solution confirmation, we will sign formal contract, specifying deliverables, acceptance criteria, schedule, price, and payment terms. After you pay agreed project kick-off deposit, production plan will formally start.
Manufacturing & In-house Validation
After manufacturing and assembly completion, machine will undergo strict debugging before shipment. At that time, we will provide complete machining validation video, visually demonstrating whole process of machine using your supplied raw material, stably producing qualified parts, and performing on-site measurement. This video will serve as important acceptance reference.
Final Acceptance, Delivery & Shipment
After video validation or in-house pre-acceptance is passed, and contractually agreed payment is completed, machine will be arranged for shipment. We will provide installation, debugging, and operation training service to ensure smooth production startup at your facility.

FAQ
Q: 1. Is machine noise loud? Can normal conversation happen in workshop?
A: Operating noise level is approximately 65-75 dB, not harsh. Optional fully enclosed protective cover provides sound insulation inside cover, while normal conversation is possible outside cover.
Q: 2. How are chips and coolant handled? Will there be splashing?
A: Standard configuration includes internal guarding and chip guide chute. 90% of chips fall into chip collection cart. For coolant, optional minimum quantity lubrication or oil mist recovery system keeps floor essentially free of oil stains.
Q: 3. What happens during sudden power outage? Will machine automatically resume when power returns?
A: No. For safety, after power outage/restoration, manual start button press is required. However, machine automatically returns to home position, preventing tool collision or workpiece damage.
