FAQs of Giana 3800 mm Lathe Machine:
Q: How can I operate the Giana 3800 mm lathe safely and efficiently?
A: To operate this lathe, ensure proper setup of the workpiece, use the correct tools, and select suitable cutting speeds (up to 2000 RPM). Always secure accessories like the steady rest or follow rest if needed, and wear appropriate personal protective equipment to maintain safety during operation.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this lathe for heavy-duty turning jobs?
A: The robust construction, precision-ground bed, and hardened guideways of the Giana lathe ensure excellent reliability and accuracy. It supports large workpieces up to 3800 mm between centers and delivers consistent performance for demanding tasks such as shaft and roll manufacturing.
Q: When should I utilize the steady rest or follow rest accessories?
A: Use the steady rest for supporting long or slender workpieces during turning to prevent deflection and vibration. The follow rest is helpful for supporting workpieces near the cutting area, especially when machining lengthy shafts, ensuring dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
Q: Where is this lathe most effectively utilized?
A: This lathe excels in general engineering workshops, manufacturing environments, and industries that require the machining of large, heavy components like shafts and rolls. Its size and capabilities make it best suited for demanding, precision applications.
Q: What process should I follow to change thread settings on this lathe?
A: To adjust thread settings, select the appropriate change gears from the provided accessories, and set the lead screw accordingly. The lathe supports a metric thread range from 1 to 60 mm and an inch range from 2 to 40 TPI, giving flexibility for various threading requirements.
Q: How does the variable speed function benefit turning operations?
A: Variable speed, up to approximately 2000 RPM, allows operators to adjust cutting speed according to material hardness and machining needs. This flexibility enhances tool life, improves surface quality, and provides optimal control over each machining process.
