    Introduction

    • Lathe is one of the most important machine tools in the metal


    working industry. A lathe operates on the principle of a rotating
    work piece and a fixed cutting tool.
    • The cutting tool is feed into the work piece, which rotates
    about its own axis, causing the work piece to be formed to the
    desired shape.
    Lathe machine is also known as “the mother/father of the entire
    tool family”.
    HISTORY
    • The lathe machine is one of the oldest and most important
    machine tools. As early as 1569, wood lathes were in use in
    France.
    • The lathe machine was adapted to metal cutting in England
    during the Industrial Revolution.
    • Lathe machine also called “Engine Lathe” because the first
    type of lathe was driven by a steam engine.
    Working of Lathe Machine
    • The lathe machine is a machine tool which hold the
    workpiece two rigid and strong support called
    centres or in a chuck which revolves.The cutting
    tool is rigidly held and supported in a tool post
    which is fed against the revolving work. The normal
    cutting operations are performed with the cutting
    tool fed either parallel or at right angle to the axis of
    the work.
    Parts of the Lathe
    Lathe Bed
    • Heavy, rugged casting
    • Made to support working parts of
    lathe
    • On top section are machined ways
    • Guide and align major parts of
    lathe
    Headstock
     Clamped on left-hand end of bed
     Headstock spindle
     Hollow cylindrical shaft supported by bearings
     Provides drive through gears to work-holding devices
     Live center, faceplate, or chuck fitted to spindle nose to hold
    and drive work
     Driven by stepped pulley or transmission gears
     Feed reverse lever
     Reverses rotation of feed rod and lead screw
    Headstock…
    Carriage
     Used to move cutting tool along lathe bed
     Consists of three main parts
     Saddle
     H-shaped casting mounted on top of lathe ways, provides
    means of mounting cross-slide and apron
     Cross-slide
     Apron
    Carriage…
    Tailstock
    • Upper & lower tailstock castings.
    • Adjusted for taper or parallel
    turning by two screws set in base.
    • Tailstock clamp locks tailstock any
    position along bed of lathe.
    • Tailstock spindle has internal
    taper to receive dead center.
    • Provide support for right hand end
    of work.
    Operations of Lathe Machine
    • Facing: In this operation, the work piece is held in the
    chuck and the facing tool is fed from the center of the
    work piece towards the outer surface or from the outer
    surface to the center, with the help of a cross-slide.
    Turning
    • Turning : produces smooth and straight
    outside radius on a part
    Threading
    • Threading: The Cutting tool is moved
    quickly cutting threads.
    Tapering
    • Tapering : tool is moved so as to cut a taper
    (cone shape) .
    Drilling
    Drilling is an operation of making a
    hole in a work piece with the help of a
    drill.
    Reaming
    • Reaming is an operation of
    finishing the previously drilled
    hole.
    Boring
    • Boring is an operation of
    enlarging of a hole already made
    in a work piece.
    Types of Lathes
     Engine lathe
    Not production lathe, found in school shops, tool rooms, and
    job shops
    Primarily for single piece or short runs
    Manually operated
     Turret lathe
    Used when many duplicate parts required
    Equipped with multisided tool post (turret) to which several
    different cutting tools mounted
    Employed in given sequence
    Conclusion

    A lathe machine is a heavy duty and high powered


    tools largely used in engineering. They are used to cut
    and shape metals, woods or plastics and even drill
    holes with added parts.
