Ball guideways use point contact between steel balls and raceways, delivering low friction and rapid response—ideal for light to medium loads at high speeds. Roller guideways rely on line contact between cylindrical rollers and raceways, significantly boosting load capacity and rigidity—perfect for
A slant-bed—also called an inclined-bed or angled guideway—positions the machine ways at an angle to the horizontal. Instead of sliding flat, the carriage moves downward along the slope, using gravity to evacuate chips and lowering the machine’s center of gravity. This design gives Swiss-type lathes
Function OverviewSpindle bearings are the “heart valve” of Swiss-type lathes, carrying loads, maintaining rotational accuracy and reducing heat. JSWAY selects P4/P2 precision angular-contact bearings with ceramic balls. Dynamic balancing and preload calibration at the factory keep every spindle whis
Preload refers to applying a predetermined axial load to the ball screw under the required working conditions of a CNC machine tool, eliminating axial and backlash clearances, thereby increasing the screw’s rigidity, positioning accuracy, and servo responsiveness. So, what impact does preload adjust
Selecting a hydraulic chuck is all about harmonizing the workpiece, the machine tool, and the machining process. Use the six dimensions below as a quick checklist.Workpiece First• Shape: round bars suit three-jaw self-centering chucks; irregular or eccentric parts need four-jaw independent or custom
Stage 1 | Process Evaluation & Preparation• Upload the 3D fitting model to JSWAY’s JS-CAM digital-twin platform; the system instantly detects collisions, chatter and thermal drift and delivers an executable tool-path template.• JSWAY’s custom profile collet clamps the outer diameter, inner bore, thr
When a workpiece features bosses, grooves, or angled surfaces, conventional chucks often require multiple setups that waste the high-speed potential of a Swiss lathe. JSWAY’s custom fixtures are designed to mirror the part profile, allowing the machine to complete everything in one clamping.• Quick-
Purpose of EvaluationTurn-mill machining squeezes multiple operations into a single machine, shortening cycle time but lengthening the error chain. Process evaluation is the virtual rehearsal of the entire machining cycle in digital space to find bottlenecks, collisions, over-cuts or residual-stress
