A lathe

is a machine tool which rotates the workpiece on its axis to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding, knurling, drilling, ordeformation, facing, turning, with tools that are applied to the workpiece to create an object which has symmetry about an axis of rotation.

Milling is the machining process of using rotary cutters to remove material[1] from a workpiece
advancing (or feeding) in a direction at an angle with the axis of the tool.[2][3] It covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large, heavy-duty gang milling operations. It is one of the most commonly used processes in industry and machine shops today for machining parts to precise sizes and shapes.

A drilling machine, called a drill press, is used to cut holes into or through metal, wood,
or other materials Drilling machines use a drilling tool that has cutting edges at its point. This cutting tool is held in the drill press by a chuck or Morse taper and is rotated and fed into the work at variable speeds. Drilling machines may be used to perform other operations. They can perform countersinking, boring, counterboring, spot facing, reaming, and tapping

A grinding machine, often shortened to grinder, is a machine tool used for grinding, which
is a type of machining using an abrasive wheel as the cutting tool. Each grain of abrasive on the wheel's surface cuts a small chip from the work piece via shear deformation.
