1000TA Lathe CNC System

CNC Cutting Controller

Product Overview The 1000TA is a second-generation lathe CNC developed by re-engineering both the software and the hardware of the earlier 10T platform. It combines a 32-bit embedded CPU with a large-scale FPGA and applies real-time multitasking control together with hardware interpolation to achieve micron-level motion control. High integration, straightforward operation, a complete instruction set and a dedicated acceleration/deceleration and interpolation algorithm deliver high speed, high accuracy and high reliability at a very competitive price, making it the first choice for economical CNC lathes. Key Functions - X, Z and Y feed axes with 3-axis simultaneous interpolation; Y-axis type is user-definable - 1 ms interpolation cycle, 1 µm control resolution, 0.1 µm optional - One 0-10 V analogue spindle output - Linear and exponential acceleration/deceleration selectable for cutting feed - Statement-format macro programming with parameterised macro calls - Metric and inch programming with automatic tool setting - Multi-level password protection for equipment management - 16 general-purpose inputs and 16 outputs - Input and output points reassignable through M codes - USB port for flash-drive file operation, system configuration and software upgrade - Alarm history and operation log for maintenance and traceability Technical Specifications Feed axes: minimum command unit 0.001 mm or 0.0001 mm selectable (0.01 mm also available for the additional Y axis); position command range ±99999999 x minimum command unit; rapid traverse up to 60 m/min at 1 µm resolution and 24 m/min at 0.1 µm; rapid override F0, 25%, 50%, 100%; feed override 10%-150% in fifteen real-time steps; electronic gearing with command multiplication and division factors of 1-8192; handwheel feed at x1, x10, x100, x1000. Spindle: one 0-10 V analogue output; one spindle encoder feedback channel with line count selectable from 100 to 5000 p/r; speed commanded by S code or mechanical gear in four steps S1-S4 within 0-9999 r/min; spindle override 50%-120% in eight real-time steps; G96 constant surface speed control. Tooling: tool length compensation; tool-nose radius compensation (type C); tool change in MDI, automatic or manual relative mode; tool setting by fixed point, trial cut or reference-point return; offset execution as coordinate shift or tool movement. Acceleration and deceleration: exponential or linear for cutting feed; S-curve pre-acceleration for rapid traverse; exponential or linear for thread cutting; start speed, end speed and acceleration time constants set by parameter. Accuracy compensation: backlash compensation on both X and Z axes; memorised pitch-error compensation on both X and Z axes. Threading: single and multi-start threads, straight, tapered and face threads, constant and variable pitch; high-speed thread retract with configurable retract length, angle and speed characteristic; pitch range 0.001-500 mm or 0.06-2540 threads per inch. PLC: two-level execution at 1.5 µs per basic instruction, up to 4700 steps, level-1 scan period 8 ms; PLC warnings and alarms; 45 instructions (10 basic, 35 functional); 16 inputs / 16 outputs. Loading and unloading: user-defined output function via M80 (open) / M81 (close) for L0-L7, mapped by default to outputs Y1.0-Y1.7 and reassignable; user-defined detection via M82 (high) / M83 (low) for L0-L7, mapped by default to inputs X1.0-X1.7 and reassignable. Programme editing: 56 MB memory for 400 programmes including sub-programmes and macros; ISO code with statement-format macros; relative, absolute and mixed coordinate programming; parameterised macro calls with four-level sub-programme nesting. Operation and display: Edit, Auto, MDI, Machine Zero Return, Handwheel/Single Step and Manual modes; 7-inch full-colour digital LCD at 800 x 480; 2D tool-path graphics; multi-level operation authority; alarm log and real-time clock.

Selection & Setup Notes

The 1000TA is the entry point into CNC turning: it converts a manual lathe to CNC with a controlled budget and a fast payback. If you need a fourth axis, dual-channel control or turning-centre functions, see the MS-1000TB / MS-2000TB. Every model in the range is listed under CNC Cutting Controllers. Send us your spindle interface, axis count and I/O requirement and we will confirm the kit.

Standards & Further Reading

External reference: ISO 9013 — Thermal cutting classification — ISO 9013 defines the quality classes for thermal cut surfaces (perpendicularity, bevel, dross).

Frequently Asked Questions

What does converting a manual lathe involve?

Usually a new controller, servo or stepper drives with encoders, and rework of the feed screws and tool post. Electrical and mechanical sides must be assessed together.

Can it cut threads?

Yes, with a spindle encoder for synchronisation and thread data set from the system parameter table.

How are service and spares handled?

Controllers and common spares are stocked by model; contact sales for lead times and pricing.
