LYV-500 CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc Ensures Reliable Brake Disc Accuracy and Surface Quality
The footage presents the LYV‑500 CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc in live operation, machining automotive brake discs through rough and finish turning. Focused entirely on the cutting process rather than the internal structure, the video shows how smoothly and precisely the lathe performs each step of brake disc production.
Designed specifically for brake disc and hub manufacturing, the CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc features a thermally symmetric cast‑iron box ribbed structure in its bed and column. This balanced design effectively minimizes thermal deformation during long machining cycles, maintaining stable dimensional accuracy. The increased rigidity of the frame allows the machine to handle heavy‑duty cutting while maintaining vibration control and excellent surface finish.
Both the X and Z feed axes use wide‑span arrangements with imported 60‑degree angular contact screw bearings and high‑precision ball screws. Servo motors directly connect to the screws via flexible couplings, shortening the transmission chain and lowering noise. This configuration delivers responsive motion control, high servo precision, and minimal backlash — ensuring fine detail accuracy in every brake disc produced.
Equipped with a high‑rigidity vertical servo turret, the LYV‑500 CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc offers fast and reliable tool changes suitable for dual‑surface rough and finish turning of disc‑type components. The centralized automatic lubrication system features both liquid‑level and pressure alarms, guaranteeing steady operation and reducing maintenance interruptions. During filming, the machine's cutting motion remains smooth even at high speeds — clearly reflecting its optimized mechanical rigidity.
The machine integrates mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic modules into a compact, fully enclosed design. This layout supports easy operation, visual appeal, and efficient dust management. Considering the airborne particles typical of cast‑iron materials, Hengga Intelligent has developed a proprietary positive‑pressure sealing system for the feed motion parts. By maintaining constant positive pressure, the system prevents dust, vapor, and corrosive gases from entering ball screws, guideways, or bearings, prolonging component life and preserving machining accuracy.
Control is provided through a user‑friendly CNC system with a Chinese LCD servo interface. Functions such as tool compensation, manual and automatic reference return, and self‑diagnostic monitoring make handling straightforward for operators. The ergonomic keyboard box, full‑panel layout, and clearly partitioned control groups ensure safe and efficient operation whether setting up workpieces, installing tools, or troubleshooting.
In the demonstrated process, the CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc achieves excellent stability when the workpiece's positioning reference and gravity direction are aligned. This reduces spindle oscillation and effectively suppresses cutting vibration, giving the brake disc uniform surface quality and enhanced rotational balance. Such precision makes the LYV‑500 ideal for mass‑production lines where thousands of brake discs require consistent geometry and flawless finish.
Beyond brake discs, the CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc accommodates a wide range of components — including brake drums, hubs, flywheels, flanges, pulleys, and transmission gears. By combining automatic loading, clamping, machining, and unloading in one system, it meets the efficiency goals of large automotive part manufacturers seeking both productivity and accuracy.
This video illustrates more than machining capability; it shows the reliability of integrated engineering and modern sealing protection. Hengga Intelligent's LYV‑500 CNC Vertical Lathe for Brake Disc represents a balanced convergence of robust structure, precision motion control, and intelligent automation — ensuring cleaner operation, reduced labor intensity, and higher efficiency in every brake disc produced.
