Numerical controller having cutting control function through turret rotation
A numerical controller includes a command analysis unit that generates movement command data by analyzing a program command and an axis travel calculation unit that, when the program command commands movement of a tool in a direction of a first straight axis orthogonal to an axis of rotation of a workpiece, converts a command value based on the program command for the movement of the tool in the direction of the first straight axis into a command value for a rotation angle of a turret, and a position of the tool is controlled in accordance with a rotation command for the turret based on the command value for the rotation angle of the turret calculated by the axis travel calculation unit, instead of the command based on the program command for the movement in the direction of the first straight axis.
Machining system
Provided is a highly practical machining system. The machining system is configured to include a base, and multiple machining modules which are detachably disposed on the base to be aligned with one another in a left-right direction. Machining is sequentially performed by the multiple machining modules with respect to a workpiece. At least one of the multiple machining modules is a vertical lathe module. It is possible to configure a compact system in which machining can be performed by a vertical lathe.
FORWARD-FACING TWO-SPINDLE LATHE
A forward-facing two-spindle lathe includes a first main spindle device and a second main spindle device, a first turret device and a second turret device, each including multiple tools configured to perform machining on a workpiece gripped by a main spindle chuck of one or both of the first main spindle device and the second main spindle device, an auxiliary device disposed between the first main spindle device and the second main spindle device and configured to perform a predetermined operation such as machining on a workpiece gripped by the main spindle chuck of one or both of the first main spindle device and the second main spindle device, and a control device configured to control driving of the first main spindle device, the second main spindle device, the first turret device, the second turret device, and the auxiliary device.
VERTICAL LATHE
A vertical lathe, including: a headstock provided on the upper side of a base so as to be capable of moving in the lateral direction and the vertical direction; a main spindle rotatably supported by the headstock; a workpiece chuck provided at the lower end section of the main spindle; a turret support stand provided so as to be capable of moving in the longitudinal direction orthogonal to the lateral direction and the vertical direction; an actuator for moving the turret support stand in the longitudinal direction; a turret having tool mounting parts provided at a plurality of circumferential positions, the turret being supported by the turret support stand so as to enable turn-indexing about the axis in the longitudinal direction; and a plurality of processing tools attached at each of the tool mounting parts so as to be set apart from each other in the longitudinal direction.

Machine tool
In a lathe equipped with a spindle for rotatably driving a work and a tool rest having a turret (rotary member) rotatably supporting a plurality of tools in an indexable manner about a horizontal axis, the tool rest is detachably installed on a tool rest installation portion formed so as to be positioned on an operator side so that the tools of the turret face the work side gripped by the spindle in an attachable and detachable manner.
Machine tool
A machine tool includes a spindle equipped with a workpiece gripping portion arranged so as to face an operator side, the spindle being configured to rotatably drive a workpiece gripped by the workpiece gripping portion, and a tool mount equipped with a rotary member supporting a plurality of tools in a rotatably indexable manner about an axis parallel to an axis of the spindle. The tool mount is arranged at a tool mount installation portion formed to be positioned on the operator side in a manner such that the rotary member faces a workpiece gripping portion side.
