The production workshop has been bustling with activity recently, with many CK series CNC lathes under intensive assembly. Workers are busy installing guide rails, wiring, and testing the machines, all working efficiently towards one goal: ensuring on-time delivery of urgent orders.
Because we recently received three big batches of urgent orders:
a Thai customer ordered 8 units, originally with a 90-day delivery period, but the customer received downstream orders ahead of schedule and requested a reduction to 60 days;
a Mexican customer ordered 10 units, their factory is almost finished and they're just waiting for our equipment to arrive;
domestic customers ordered 12 units, many of whom are repeat customers making their second or third purchase.
They've had good experience with the machines, they've even waived the on-site inspection procedure. These three batches total 30 units, filling our production schedule.
A close look at the assembly line reveals meticulous guide rail installation;
the guide rails of the CK series lathe are its "bones," and must be installed perfectly straight. The technicians meticulously tightened each screw with torque wrenches, repeatedly measuring flatness. The spindle underwent a six-hour break-in period.
The spindle is the "heart" of the lathe. Newly assembled spindles were run for one and a half hours each at four speeds: 500, 2000, 4500, and 6000 RPM, with vibration measured in between.
Trial cutting of parts was then conducted to let the product speak for itself.
Each assembled lathe had a standard test piece cut. Quality inspectors used measuring tools to measure the roundness and surface finish, only after all were (qualified/acceptable) was the lathe released.
To prepare for this production, our company also prepared core components in advance. Large orders were placed in advance for CNC systems (Fanuc, Siemens,GSK); spindle bearings (NSK, SKF) were increased from the usual 60 sets to 150 sets; and the cast lathe beds were supplied simultaneously by three foundries, with material testing performed on each batch.
The CK series CNC lathes are a mature product of our company, characterized by:
1. High rigidity: Suitable for machining stainless steel, bearing steel, and hardened steel;
2. High precision: Daily machining accuracy can be consistently maintained within 5 micrometers;
3. Few malfunctions: Many long-term customers have reported that they have used them for two or three years with virtually no major repairs;
4. High cost-performance ratio: Performance close to Japanese and Korean brands, but at only 60-70% of the price.
Because of these advantages, electronic component manufacturers in Southeast Asia, automotive parts manufacturers in South America, and even domestic new energy companies are all willing to choose them.
This is the first one.
