The facing and centering machine

03 Jul.,2023

 

Facing and Centering machines are essential machine tools for machining many parts, especially axisymmetrical parts. As their name suggests, their main task is to perform end facing and centring on the ends of tubes, bars or forgings. In machine shops, they are mainly used to carry out initial operations, in order to reduce costs and time for successive machining operations.

The latest generations of centre cutters have evolved considerably. Although they are still used to carry out preliminary machining operations and organised in line with other machines, they are increasingly acquiring the characteristics to also be used “stand alone”. In fact, the latest facing and centering machines are able to perform a greater amount of machining, reducing the need for subsequent steps in other machines.
