The principle of turning is that we use a single-pointed tool to create cylindrical and rounded shapes. In SECO Industries, s.r.o. we machine external and internal cylindrical, conical, spherical, planar, shaped surfaces by turning. Turning is also characterized by the tool being stationary for this operation while the workpiece rotates. Using a lathe and an implemented drill, we also drill conical holes in materials.

Order based turning

Thanks to our turning park and the tools we have at our disposal, we are very versatile and we can thus satisfy even demanding customers. We practice order based turning very often and each customer always has their specific requirements. Of course, we also provide order based cnc turning, where most of the work is provided by a machine center, such as the Mazak Quickturn 100, or the Mazak Quickturn nexus 200-II or Haas ST-30. All these turning centers are available to our customers.

 

Types of turning

Longitudinal turning

This type of turning means that there is a sliding movement of the tool along the axis of the workpiece, thus changing its diameter.

Face turning

is carried out, as the name implies from the front side, where the material is machined and shaped. In principle, the tool slides vertically along the end of the workpiece towards its axis.

Longitudinal turning

Seco Industries, s.r.o. machines ductile iron castings on Mazak machines. Thanks to the high rigidity of the Mazak Nexus-250 II, we machine the front and outer surfaces of a range of ductile iron castings GJS-600-3 (GGG 60) with high efficiency and precision, as demonstrated in this video.

Shape turning

Semi-automatic cnc turning machines are mainly used here. The tool engagement can vary depending on the depth of cut, feed and cutting speed. The tools used to shape the material are exposed to large changes in stress and depth of cut due to the alternation of the machining direction of the material and the changing diameter. Depending on the shape of the workpiece, it is always necessary to select the corresponding shape of the machining knife.

CNC turning

Do you want quality and accuracy? This type of material processing is used with the help of turning centers, which ensure fast and inexpensive processing. This is exactly what this type of processing is about. That is why it is so sought after. Of course it’s about quantity. The more pieces you request, the lower the price and all processing costs will be. In practice, CNC turning is done using automatic and semi-automatic machines.

Mazak Quickturn 100

It is a semi-automatic lathe, which is designed for automation of small series, medium series or series production. This semi-automatic type combines advanced technology, productivity and its value is primarily in the performance at its disposal. The Mazak Quickturn 100 is a two-axis machine and efficiently processes a wide range of part sizes. The machine is equipped with a computer that uses the mazatrol language as standard for programming. For fully automated operation, this machine can be equipped with a bar feeder or a robotic loader. This semi-automatic is fast, exact and precise and i tis not the only machine we have. In our portfolio, we also have the Mazak Quickturn 200-II CNC lathes and other machines that complement our semi-automatic machine park and we will introduce them below.

Haas ST-30

The high-performance ST-type turning center has been designed from the ground up to provide adjustment flexibility, extreme rigidity and high thermal stability during work. The Hass ST-30 is a medium-sized turning center with long knives that provides a generous working space. This machine is among the best in its class. Thanks to it, we are able to process demanding orders quickly and efficiently.
