Uses of lathe machine?
The lathe is one of the engineers' most valuable tools. Coupled with a milling machine or milling head (Tri-axis lathe) there is nothing that cannot be produced from virtually any kind of material.A lathe can be used to:# Turn an ornate wooden spindle# Skim a cylinder head or other gasket-face# Put a screw-thread on a piece of metal bar# Drill a hole of almost any size in almost any material# Machine an intricate valve, collet or gudgeon# Put a screw-thread INSIDE a hole (Tap the hole)# Produce a complex component such as a cog-wheel, crown wheel or pinion# Re-bore the cylinder of an engine# Create irregular / offset flanged components of infinite complexity.# Turn-down a piece of tooling to fit a specific tool.The list is almost endless. There isn't much you cant do with a lathe, especially if it has a milling head! (Engineers wet dream!)
