Turning refers to rotating a part around one of its axis, then using a cutting tool to change its diameter. The machine tool designed to carry out turning is the lathe.

What is proof machining?

Proof machining means>> If part have too much dispensable material to remove through out machining than machining is done on the same to remove all material till it will have only 2~3 mm to achieve its final dimensions , this process is called proof machining or if part have 1~2 mm material to remove for coming it final dimensions then Cutting tool path proving done & is called proof machining.

What is a multi-spindle machine?

A machine having more than one spindle is called multi-spindle machine. A machine with 2 spindles are termed twin-spindle machine. In some of the cnc turning centers twin spindles are used to perform first and second operation simultaneously to complete machining of that component in same operating time. Spindles more than 2 is using in drilling machines normally to perform drilling operation of components like automobile engines at a time.

Waste from machining?

The waste, and amount of waste, from a machining process depends entirely on the material being machine and the specific process. The only "waste" produced in every machining process is heat in some form or another. For a typical metal cutting operation you're going to have smaller bits of metal removed from a larger workpiece called "chips". There may also be cutting fluids consisting of heavy mineral oils and/or emulsified oils that break down with time and require disposal at a recycling center.
