What is Swiss CNC Machining

Swiss CNC machining is a specialized process to machine small, high precision turned parts. A Swiss CNC machine, also referred to as a Swiss automatic lathe, Swiss screw machine, or Swiss-type lathe, was originally designed for the Swiss watchmaking industry. Over the years, the Swiss-style turning machine has been refined to be widely used in various industries for high-volume, high-precision manufacturing – and for good reason.

A Swiss-style lathe is a type of machine that cuts bar stock fed through a guide bushing while the tools keep stationary. The collet is recessed behind the guide bushing so that the bar stock held in it will have better support and will not directly be exposed to the lathe bed and the tooling, so the machine can process the material rapidly and tightly. Also, it plays a great role in decreasing tool deflection and vibration while increasing parts accuracy since the cutting tool can work nearer to the bushing.

The Key Benefits of Swiss CNC Machining

The good performance of Swiss CNC machining greatly benefits from the guide bushing and the geometry and mechanics that take place in the tool zone.

The chip-to-chip time from one tool to the next can be one second or less because the cutting tool operates near the guide bushing;

Capacity for 20 or more tools in the tool zone;

Shorter set-up times;

Often a single heavy cut helps to remove all the necessary material while preventing deflection;

Superior surface finish without the need for grinding;

Complex parts can be machined in a single cycle with more accuracy;

Multiple operations are performed on a part in a single machining cycle, making the part ready for shipment as soon as it is produced from the lathe;

Optimization of productivity-the right automatic bar feeder enables continuous, unattended, and even lights-out operation;

Tighter tolerances are realized by the sliding headstock & the guide bushing.
