The number of rounds per minute.
lathe speed is numerically measured by cutting speed vdn/1000.

A lathe in a small wood or metal shop has a motor that connects to the lathe by belt. In a "direct drive" lathe the motor connects directly. I assume that "all gear" means direct drive, no belt. A belt drive protects the motor from damage and reduces vibration of the lathe. In addition, the belt allows you to change the gear ratio and thus the speed of the lathe without changing the motor speed. Belt drive is superior in terms of both performance and longevity.
There are many different types of Lathe, the King of all machine tools- as there are many types of Organs ( musical instrument) a High-speed sometimes shortened to (speed Lathe) is a light duty model intended for sheet-metal work and such jobs. one model was used by the Naval Aircraft factory in Great Lakes ( home of the Great Lakes Biplanes- popular with stunt pilots) -and this had a circular speed controller looking something like a ship"s engine room telegraph but calibrated in R.P.M. and direct reading. there may be some specific R.P.M. range that would be taken as ( High Speed). There is an illustration of the Navy lathe in the current and recent Technical Books catalogues of Lindsay"s Publications.
In the case of a lathe or a drill, that is RPM. Revolutions Per Minute
I'd have to see the two lathes to tell you, but there are four main reasons a turner replaces his lathe: the new one vibrates less, the new one is larger either in length or in the diameter of the piece it can turn, the new one has a bigger motor, or the new one runs at a slower speed than the old one. You're asking yourself "wouldn't you want a faster lathe?" No! A turner wants a lathe that has lots of power at slow speeds because it's safer to make the initial cuts on a piece at a really slow speed, and the slower speed will let you make turn larger pieces.
A lathe is not a lever.
A lathe is not a lever.
1 - You can control the angle of the screw cutting tools. 2 - setting screw cutting lathe control. 3 - reduce the depth at every step. 4 - Adjust the speed milling machine. 5 - Barry screws to release the lever, do not screw cutting lathe.

The definition of a bench lathe is defined as a lathe mounted on a workbench. There is no other meaning for these two words other than a lathe mounted on a workbench.
