Abstract
The microfactory is proposed as a compact production system intended for a small precise parts. The use of downsized machines for small parts is effective to decrease energy consumption and a space occupation. The micro CNC precision lathe for the achievement of the microfactory has been developed. The development concept of the micro CNC precision lathe is miniaturization, high accuracy, simplification of installation and operation. The micro CNC precision lathe developed first is a postcard size. This can put out ordinary accuracy for a precise lathe to a plane material. Next, the CNC precision lathe of the developed A4 size enables a more efficient, more flexible cutting. An enough effect for the micro factory achievement can be expected of these micro CNC precision lathes. This paper describes development process of these micro CNC precision lathes.
