A lathe is an in the first instance an engineering machine used for turning metals into specific shapes and diameters, adding threads for screw, creating threads for bolts, boring . Woodlates (their predecessor) turning bowls , cutting threats on wood, convex and concave shapes
hello
The main operation in a lathe machine is to turn material. In all lathes, a piece is held and rotated around an axis while metal is cut.
The ones that i use at college and work are a milling machine, a lathe, a drill, and a saw but i think the main ones (In mechanical engineering) are the Milling Machine and the Lathe.
The main features of the Whirlpool 4396719 machine is that it is a water purifying component. It hooks up to a refrigerator to provide cool and clean water.
A milling machine basically look like a drill press, but with the ability to move the work piece sideways. A lathe clamp and spin the work piece horizontally and use a stationary tool bit to cut and shape the work piece.
A wood lathe is designed for shaping wood, while a metal lathe is used for shaping metal. The main difference lies in the materials they are intended to work with.
A lathe is a woodworking or metal working machine that rapidly turns the item to be lathed, A blade is then brought to the item in the case of wood a chisel can be used by hand and in the case of metal the blade is held in a specially made jig , the blade slices away metal until the round shape required is acquired. An example of an item that can be made on a lathe is a Baseball bat.
The main difference is the following: On a CNC Lathe the material to be worked is held in a chuck and rotated around and the tools are clamped. These tools are then moved against the rotating material to cut into it. On a CNC Mill the tools are held in a chuck and rotated around and the material to be worked is clamped. These tools are then moved against the stationary material to cut into it.
A lathe that measures 6 inches from the center of the spindle to the closest part of the bed is considered a lathe with a 12 inch swing.
The headstock on a lathe is a crucial component that houses the main motor, drive mechanism, and spindle. It is responsible for rotating the workpiece, which is secured in place, allowing the cutting tool to shape the material effectively. The headstock also typically includes features for adjusting the speed and direction of rotation, enabling precise machining operations. Overall, it plays a vital role in the lathe's functionality and precision.
The main oil centre in Assam is the Guwahati Refinery.
