Vibration cutting (spindle oscillation)
Oscillation Cutting (Vibration Cutting)
Reliable chip control even on Hasegawa’s compact machines
Oscillation cutting synchronizes periodic X and Z axis vibration with spindle rotation, breaking chips into smaller pieces. By introducing a brief non-cutting interval, chip entanglement and evacuation issues are reduced. Amplitude and cycle settings can be easily adjusted in the program.
Key benefits include reduced chip tangling, more stable deep-hole and small-diameter machining, improved tool life, and fewer issues during unmanned or night-time operation.
Despite being compact, Hasegawa machines maintain the rigidity, control response, and synchronization accuracy required for stable oscillation cutting. The structure also incorporates chip evacuation considerations, delivering performance comparable to larger machines.
Users have reported improvements such as eliminating deep-hole clogging, more stable night-time operation, and extended tool life on difficult-to-cut materials.
