Our mechanical support services for machine tools
Mechanical support on machine tools
Do you own a metalworking business? How often have malfunctions prevented your machine tool from starting or triggered emergency alarms? Every time it happens, not only is valuable time wasted, but there is also the risk of more severe consequences, such as a production halt or financial loss. Rely on Assistec for the mechanical servicing of your machine fleet, ensuring optimal functionality of your industrial equipment.
With over two decades of expertise in the industry, our staff of experienced technicians can service and repair your machine tools and help you find the best solutions for a comprehensive service experience. Our mechanical support aims to offer customers a comprehensive service, with professionals readily available to promptly address any issues with their machine tools. Our mechanical support service includes:
- Routine and extraordinary maintenance on multi-brand machine tools;
- Overhaul of spindles and electro-spindles;
- Geometrical checks and dynamic tests using instruments such as vibrometers, accelerometers and load cells to verify machine performance and precision;
- Retrofitting of lathes and machining centres;
- Grinding of spindle cone directly on the machine;
- Maintenance and replacement of chillers in refrigeration machines;
- Application of protections on machine tools and overhaul or replacement of telescopic casings;
- Installation of machine tools;
- Programming courses and technological training on materials and tools;
- Preventive maintenance services: allow machine downtime to be scheduled based on production requirements; the goal is to minimise the number of interventions required throughout the year and to reduce maintenance costs.

Numerically controlled (CNC) machines represent one of the most important technological innovations of the modern industrial era.
Their ability to automate and standardise complex operations has changed the face of manufacturing, transforming craft processes into large-scale industrial precision systems.
The spread of CNC machines has made it possible to reduce human error, increase productivity and, above all, guarantee repeatability of machining operations that would otherwise have been impossible. This has proved particularly crucial in sectors where precision, efficiency and speed are vital, such as aerospace, automotive, precision engineering and medical device manufacturing.
One of the main reasons for the success of CNC machines is their ability to perform tasks with extreme precision that previously required the manual intervention of skilled workers.
With CNCs, on the other hand, once the machining has been programmed, the machine can perform an infinite sequence of operations without loss of precision, solving problems of variability and improving the quality of the finished product.
At this point, the question might arise: when did CNC machines originate and how did they reach this level of sophistication?

Conventional machine tools and computer numerical control (CNC) machines are both used for machining, but have significant differences in several key practical aspects.
So, if you are wondering whether CNC machines are better than traditional ones or whether it is time to replace your machines with automated solutions, below you will find all the elements you need for an in-depth evaluation of the question.
We have examined 7 evaluation criteria, making an objective judgement for each of them based on the practical applications of the machine type.

What is the CNC lathe and how does it work?
The computer numerical control (CNC) lathe is one of the most advanced and precise tools in the field of machining. Its ability to perform complex machining operations with high precision and repeatability has, after all, revolutionised the manufacturing industry, significantly optimising production processes in many sectors. In the following lines, we will explore in detail how the CNC lathe works, analysing its main components, the programming process and practical applications.
We will also look at the interactions between hardware and software, the types of tools used and how machining parameters are controlled, to summarise the potential of a technology that has become strategically relevant today.
