<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: magenta; text-align: left;"><b><i><u>Lathe-</u></i></b></span><span style="text-align: left;"> lathe is machine in which the cutting tool perform various motion against the metal job. To form various shape & size of jobs. lathe is generally a machine in which different cutting tools are there.</span></div>
There is generally Single cutting tool & multiple cutting tool. lathe contains various components. Various required shapes & sizes of metal jobs are formed. The spindle rotates with high speed & the metal job is attached with the chuck.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><i><u>Components of lathe </u></i></b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>BED</u></span>- it is base or Foundation which is made of single casting. It is very heavy part of lathe & used as a base for lathe.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>HEAD STOCK</u></span>- The head stock is on the left side of lathe bolted with bed. It contains chuck, spindle, driven, gears etc.head stock is generally a part of lathe which is attached with the base or Foundation.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Tail Stock</u></span>- it is the component of lathe which is on the right side of lathe. And the tail stock is free to move. It can be easily move & used for driller holding.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Carriage</u></span>- it is component of lathe used for supporting & tool control.<br />
<br />
Carriage contain various parts various parts which are shown below.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Saddle</u></span>- it is part of carriage and is used for supporting cutting tool & moves along with the guide way.it is and H-casting type form component of lathe & is just about the bed and can be slide easily.Used for supporting & tool control. It moves along with guide ways.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Cross-slide</u></span>- it is the tool post used for supporting & holding.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Compound rest</u></span>- it is part of the carriage & used to machining of metal job at various angles. Taper turning is generally a cutting the metal job with an angle.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Apron</u></span>- it is generally fitted with saddle. It has gear, lever& clutches attached for moving carriage as lead screw are attached<br />
For (used in thread cutting operation)<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><u><b><i>Lathe accessories​</i></b></u></span>- it is used for supporting & handling purpose.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><u>Chucks</u></span>- three jaw universal chuck<br />
Four Jaw independent chuck<br />
Combination chuck<br />
Magnetic chuck<br />
Hydraulic chuck<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><u>Plates</u></span><br />
Face plate<br />
Angle plate<br />
Driving plate<br />
<br />
<span style="color: orange;"><u>Attachments</u></span><br />
Grinding attachment<br />
Drilling attachment<br />
Reaming attachment<br />
<br />
<br />
<i><u><b>Types of lathe </b></u></i><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Speed lathe</u></span>- it is a type of lathe in which the spindle rotates at high speed & variable motor is attached to the head stock of the lathe. In speed lathe the spindle rotation is at very high rpm & used for machining in various purposes like in machining of wood, polishing etc<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Engine lathe</u></span>- it is a center lathe & it provide required amount of spindle speed. The speed of spindle is not more as it can be set at the required amount.used for forming various shape& sizes of metal jobs.in this the carriage performs longitudinal direction & transverse direction.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Bench lathe</u></span>- it is a type of lathe which is mounted on the bench. It's size is small than speed lathe & generally used for obtaining more accuracy & used for less sizes of metal jobs making with good accuracy.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Tool room lathe machine</u></span>- it is a type of lathe which produces number of metal jobs with high accuracy & is more accurate then the engine lathe.tool room lathe are lathe which produces jobs with accurate.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Turret lathe</u></span>- it is a type of lathe which perform motion by using multi cutting tool.<br />
This type of lathe are generally used for obtaining jobs in bulk or used in mass production.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><u>Automatic lathe</u></span>- this is a type of lathe in which the tool rotates automatically for forming various sizing & shapes of metallic jobs. As the name suggests it performs automatic functions & produces number of jobs in mass production.<br />
