CNC Attachment for Manual Lathe

Рет қаралды 242,490

3 жыл бұрын

Here is CNC setup for my old manual lathe, Colchester Master 2500.
My system utilizes the compound slide as longitudinal movement and an additional cross slide placed in lathes own tool post.
The unit very easy to drop in for a CNC operation. Sometimes the part can be mostly done by manual maneuvers, but e.g. a fillet feature needs CNC intervention.
The 3D-assembly model can be found here: grabcad.com/library/cnc-attac...

What a fantastic idea. You have created the best of both worlds. The flexibility of a manual lathe and thr repeatability of a cnc. I have the Triumph 2000 and it's quite rare to see the larger Colchesters on KZfaq. Very well done.

Kerkko, I simply have no right words to appreciation for your achievement. You have turn an age-old lathe into a very modern machine with possibilities limited only by your imagination. The second thing that should be emphasized is that for simple turning works the CNC attachment can be easily disassembled. An elegant and effective solution. I am extremely impressed.

I have two things I regret in that scene. One is that was made in the first place. The odour lingered couple of days in the workshop and had some guests wondering the origin.

This would definitively beat any mini-lathe on that. I would choose bigger motor for compound slide, the trapezoidal (Acme) lead screw has terribly bad efficiency under heavy loads. Material removal on large diameter steel parts can easily make the motor lose some steps and expensive stock is ruined.

Thank you Paul! I have certain allergy against Chinese machines, though I own some. Preferring western equipment has turned my workshop somewhat as a museum of technology. Many Colchester lathes have nice clutch system that engages the spindle, the motor runs all of the time. That gives silky-smooth starts and reversing for the spindle, this is very useful when single point threading without an indicator dial.

Very nice my workmanship friend, and it’s nice to see old school blueprints as well, I began learning mechanical drafting in 8th year of primary school, and I fell in love with it on the first project assigned. Even though I’ve long since learned CAD, I still prefer to draft out my concepts by hand first & then go copy into CAD. I work off of paper plans any day rather than off a computer screen, (even though it will have to be done if g-codes are needed). However once I have everything down and finalized, I always print a fresh copy and give it another study before I start to make a project, I just like the paper, & it’s handy to have if I conceptualize something new while in the process of a build, I flip it sketch it! Also ya got another subscriber today, looking forward to more fantastic ideas and videos!!!…

Thank you! I'ts quite funny, that when you make a drawing in the CAD, you can stare it all day on the display, but while the printed sheet is still warm you have already found couple of missing important dimensions on it. Next you go to milling machine or lathe and wonder why the origins of the dimensions are awkwardly oriented wrong way around for the operation.

@kerkkonenahaima7322 Жыл бұрын

Yep, the inside turning caused even closer calls. Something I would never try on "real" materials. At first glance the speed selector seems like a merry go 'round in an amusement park. But for a 16-speed shifter it's quite logical and most suitable. I do too like the Antikythera DRO. There is quite little benefits updating for more modern display. My quick change toolpost repeatibility is so bad, that I would not not gain much for more tool offsets. Radius trace function is no longer topical for I have this CNC gizmo.
