One lathe, a wide spread of materials and part sizes, and a quick turnaround. That is the brief for most job shops.

Small, intricate components one day, longer workpieces held to tight tolerances the next. In our range, the King Rich KR-BL555 is the lathe we would talk to you about for that mix.

Internal left-hand coarse trapezoidal threads in aluminium bronze. Spindle in reverse, tooling running inside.

That was the job on a set of valve drive nuts. The King Rich CNC lathe took it in its stride, the parts fitted first time and the job was turned around in 24 hours.

Downtime is costly and waiting on a third party makes it worse. This business bought its own 3 m lathe.

A drilling and water engineering business can now make its own one-offs and respond faster to urgent repairs, with more control of its schedule. A 3 m bed also takes on long workpieces a smaller lathe cannot.

Turning, milling and grinding get the attention. Automation is where the hours come back.

AceMicromatic's range covers all four, and QMT supplies it in Australia.

Pair a good machine with automation and you free skilled people from loading and unloading parts. That is a better use of their time and a better return on the machine.

The Fusion 60 from AceMicromatic combines a circular saw, facing and centring, and CNC turning in one machine. That means fewer setups, less handling, a smaller footprint and a shorter cycle time per part.

Sawing, facing, centring and turning usually means separate machines and plenty of handling. The Fusion 60 does it in one.

The Fusion 60 from AceMicromatic combines circular sawing, facing and centring, and CNC turning in one machine. The workpiece stays put from raw cut to finished turn.

What that changes in a working shop:
- Fewer setups, so fewer chances for error
- Less operator time spent moving material
- A smaller footprint than separate machines
- Shorter cycle time per component

If you run shaft or bar work in volume, cost per part is where this machine earns its keep.

A batch of 316 stainless propeller nuts, running on a King Rich KR-TC320MY.

Turned, milled and threaded in the one setup. The part comes off finished, so nothing gets handled twice and nothing loses its datum between operations.

316 is not a forgiving material. It work hardens, it holds heat, and it punishes a machine that lacks rigidity. Getting through a batch of it cleanly comes down to a stiff machine and the confidence that the tool will see you to the end.

A new insert put up against the usual go to grade in 316 stainless. The results speak for themselves.

Running on a King Rich KR-TC200:

- Tool life up from 12 parts to 27
- Feed up from 0.25 to 0.3
- 3mm depth of cut

The insert has a big rake chip breaker and a sharp edge, closer to an aluminium geometry than a stainless one. It does not like going slow.

With hundreds of 316 parts to get through, tool life is the number that decides whether the job makes money.

Worth running the trial rather than assuming your current grade is the best one available.

1,000 aerospace parts from EN24T, run over a weekend.

A King Rich KR-TC320MY with a barfeeder loaded up, working unattended through the batch. Y axis and driven tooling mean the part comes off the machine complete, so there is no second operation to schedule.

From here the parts go for induction hardening on the face, then surface coating.

Lights out running is where a turn mill machine pays for itself. The setup takes longer, then the machine works while nobody is standing at it.
