CNC spindles for engraving and milling

Electro spindles for engraving and milling are mainly used for high-speed engraving and high-speed milling, and they are especially suitable for processing molds, light metals, woodworkpieces, and plastic parts. As an efficient component for small mold processing and engraving, the CNC spindle motor for engraving and milling has excellent performance. It can meet the needs of high-precision and high-efficiency processing.

Spindle for CNC machining center

Electro spindles for machining centers can be specially designed according to the needs of different users to meet the requirements of low-speed vital cutting and high-speed finishing. This type of CNC spindle is usually equipped with a code disk and an encoder, which can accurately control the operation of the spindle through a servo device, thereby realizing functions such as accurate stop, emergency stop, rigid tapping, and automatic tool change.

CNC spindle motor for lathe

Electron spindles for lathes can also be designed according to the specific needs of users to meet the requirements for low-speed decisive turning and high-speed finishing. This type of CNC spindle motor is also equipped with a code disc and encoder, which can achieve precise spindle control through the servo system, including accurate stop and emergency stop functions, making the processing more efficient and stable.

Grinding electro spindle

Grinding electro spindles is a crucial supporting component of modern grinding machines. It is mainly used for internal hole grinding machines, but it can also be designed for external cylindrical grinding machines, end-face grinding machines, etc., according to user needs. This CNC spindle is known for its high speed, precision, and rigidity. It has high processing efficiency, low roughness, and good accuracy. It is the only choice for high-precision grinding.

Edge banding machine spindle

The electro spindle of the edge banding machine is one of the core components. It is used to complete the pre-milling, end trimming, rough trimming, corner trimming, and other functions of the board. It can significantly help the work efficiency of the furniture industry, especially at the moment when the fully automatic edge banding machine has become popular. The edge banding machine electro spindle is even more popular and has become one of the cores in the furniture industry.

Spindle for special use

For particular purposes, unique CNC spindles can be designed and manufactured according to users’ unique needs to adapt to different working and installation conditions. This type of CNC spindle motor has been widely used in various machine tools such as lathes, grinders, boring machines, and other industries to meet diverse processing needs.
