Hillary Machinery supplies Hyundai WIA 2-axis CNC lathes and turning centers throughout Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. We also represent TRAK ProtoTRAK toolroom lathes in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana. Our team helps manufacturers evaluate machine capacity, part dimensions, workholding, production requirements, automation, installation, training, service and replacement parts.
Hillary Machinery supplies 2-axis CNC lathes for machining shafts, bushings, sleeves, fittings, flanges and other turned components. We help manufacturers select the machine, workholding and loading method around the part, material, tolerances and production requirements.
A 2-axis CNC lathe rotates the workpiece while cutting tools move along the X and Z axes. These machines are suited to components whose features can be produced primarily through turning, with operations such as:
The right configuration depends on the complete machining sequence, including how the workpiece is gripped, whether its opposite end requires another setup and how finished parts will be removed.
Chuck size alone does not establish usable part capacity. Review the workpiece together with the jaws, tooling, support equipment and machine clearances. Important selection factors include:
Repeating bushings produced from bar stock may be candidates for bar feeding, while shafts machined from cut blanks may require chuck loading and tailstock support. Evaluating the loading and machining sequence together helps identify the appropriate lathe configuration.
Evaluate spindle speed, power and available torque at the intended cutting speed. Workpiece diameter, material, tool selection and depth of cut all affect the requirement. Machine rigidity, chip removal and coolant delivery also matter when establishing a repeatable process and the required surface finish.
Hillary Machinery supplies WIA Machine Tools (Hyundai WIA) CNC lathes for production turning and demanding machining applications. Our Hyundai WIA territory includes Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee, with machine selection, applications, installation, training, service and parts support.

Suitable 2-axis CNC turning applications can be automated with bar feeders, parts catchers, conveyors or robotic loading. Hillary Machinery provides in-house robotic integration and is a FANUC Authorized Systems Integrator.
Automation planning should include machine communication, door operation, automatic workholding, part presentation and finished-part handling. Extended unattended production also depends on tool life, chip management, material supply, inspection requirements and process stability.

If the part requires milled flats, cross holes, slots or other rotating-tool operations, compare a live-tool turning center. Y-axis motion, a sub-spindle or additional turrets may be appropriate when the complete part requires off-center machining, back-working or a more complex process sequence.
