PRINCIPLE OF LATHE MACHINE
LATHE SIZE 4
Tail Stock
The tailstock is a movable fixture that mounts on the
ways to support work between centers.
It mounts the dead center (non-revolving) that supports
the outer end of the work.
It can also be fitted with cutting tools for drilling,
reaming, and threading.
TYPES OF LATHE 11
Engine lathe
Not production lathe, found in school shops, tool-
rooms, and job shops
Primarily for single piece or short runs
Manually operated
Special Types of Lathes 12
Turret lathe
Used when many duplicate parts required
Equipped with multisided toolpost (turret) to which
several different cutting tools mounted
Special Types of Lathes 13
Conventional/programmable lathe
Operated as standard lathe or programmable lathe
to automatically repeat machining operations
2-axis (DRO) so can see exact location of cutting
tool and workpiece in X and Z axes
Computerized Numerically Controlled (CNC) lathes
Cutting-tool movements controlled by computer-
controlled program to perform sequence of
operations automatically
Lathe Operations 14
Lathe Operations 15
Feed Mechanism 16
Roughing Tools
These tools are used to make deep cuts to remove
considerable metal from a work-piece.
Lathe Cutting Tools 23
Finishing Tools
Tool which is used to produce finishing cut/surface.
Nose of the finishing tool is rounded than the nose
of the roughing tool.
Lathe Cutting Tools 24
Facing Tool
Used for facing the work piece
It is ground to prevent interference with the tailstock
center
Round nose tool is designed for lighter turning.
Cutting Speeds and Feeds 25
Roughing Cut:
Roughing cut is done to reduce the work to its
approximate required size.
The work is left 1/32” or 0.08 mm oversize for the
finishing operation.
Since the finishing of the roughing cut is not
important, highest speed and coarsest feed,
consistent with safety and accuracy, is used.

milling. (c) End milling. (d) Ball-end mill with indexable coated-carbide inserts machining

Effect of Insert Shape on Feed Marks on a Face-
Milled Surface 38
Schematic illustration of the effect of insert shape on feed marks on a face-milled surface: (a) small
corner radius, (b) corner flat on insert, and (c) wiper, consisting of small radius followed by a large
radius which leaves smoother feed marks. (d) Feed marks due to various insert shapes.
