Lathe Operations at A&B Machine

At A&B Machine, we offer exceptional CNC lathe machining services that combine cutting-edge technology with precision craftsmanship. Whether you're working on a prototype or need large-run production, our lathe operations provide the highest level of accuracy for turning complex geometries. We pride ourselves on delivering high-quality parts with tight tolerances, ensuring that every component meets your exact specifications.

Advanced CNC Lathe Technology

Our CNC lathe machines are equipped with advanced capabilities that enable us to handle a wide range of turning operations with precision. Our fleet of CNC lathes is designed to provide flexibility, efficiency, and outstanding performance across various applications. Key features of our lathe operations include:

Multi-Axis CNC Lathes

Our CNC lathes are equipped with multi-axis technology, allowing for precise control over turning operations and the ability to machine complex shapes in a single setup. This results in reduced lead times and greater accuracy.

High-Speed Cutting

Our CNC lathe machines are designed for high-speed cutting, which improves production efficiency and ensures that we can handle both small and large production runs without compromising on quality.

Live Tooling

With live tooling capabilities, our lathes can perform milling, drilling, and tapping operations in addition to turning. This versatility allows us to create more complex components without having to switch machines or setups, further enhancing efficiency.

These technologies allow us to provide precise, high-quality parts for various industries, ensuring that each piece we produce meets stringent quality standards.

Manual Lathe Services

Manual lathes at A&B Machine are used for turning operations that require careful attention to detail and a high level of craftsmanship. Like our manual mills, our manual lathes are operated by skilled machinists who control the tool movements to ensure accuracy in every project. Manual lathes are often used for smaller production runs or when highly detailed turning work is required. Here’s what our manual lathe services offer:

Precision Turning

Precision Turning
Manual lathes allow for precise turning of cylindrical parts, including shafts, bushings, and other components that require tight tolerances. Our machinists are highly skilled in achieving these specifications through careful control of the machining process.

Customization

Customization
Whether it’s a custom part for a prototype or a small run of components, our manual lathes can be easily adjusted to accommodate different sizes, shapes, and features, making them perfect for unique or custom orders.

Versatile Materials

Versatile Materials
Our manual lathe operations can handle a variety of materials, from soft metals like aluminum to harder materials like stainless steel, ensuring that each part is crafted with the correct material properties for its intended application.

Intricate Designs

Intricate Designs
Manual milling is ideal for creating parts that require precision without the need for a CNC program. It is particularly useful in industries like aerospace, automotive, and custom manufacturing, where each component may have specific requirements.

Manual lathes provide flexibility and control, allowing us to deliver the precise machining needed for applications that require a customized approach, especially in prototype development or smaller production runs.
