Lathe- A Passport to Easy Designing

Machines are an incredible part in our life and play a very important role in our way of living.
Lathes are basically machine tools used for various performing tasks like drilling, facing,
deformation, cutting etc. by rotating the work piece on axis by applying tools to the work piece
to create an object which has symmetry about an axis of rotation. It is used in various things
like metal spinning, wood turning, thermal spraying, glass working, etc. The lathes are also used
to shape pottery and in which the best known design is the potter's wheel. The metal working
lathes are also used to produce plain surfaces and screw threads. The lathe machine is usually
held by two of the centers or at least one of it which is to horizontally moved so that the
varying work piece lengths can be accommodated. There are various objects that can be
produced using lathes are table legs, gun barrels, candle holders, musical instruments, baseball
bats, bowls etc. LATHE MACHINE is a very ancient tool and it brought industrial revolution to
our society. The very first Lathe was developed around 1300 BCE in Egypt. In earlier times two
people were required, one person used to turn the wood work piece and other would use sharp
tools to give new shapes to the wood. Later, a pedal was attached.

For getting a beautiful surface it is very important to adjust all the about mentioned elements.
It is amongst the most valued tool by the engineers. If coupled with a milling machine, there is
not a single thing which cannot be produced from the kind of materials available. The machine
has various tools which remove the extra material from anything and mould it into a perfect
new shape. This machine leaves people amazed. 

The LATHE MACHINE MANUFACTURERS surely deserve to be praised for such a wonderful


masterpiece created by them. If these machines wouldn't have come into existence then just
think how difficult would it be to design table legs? And no one would prefer simple table legs
in this era of designing. Or how much time would have gone just to design a simple candle
holder? This machine has surely made our work easy and not much time consuming. All you
have to do is place the design on the axis and the machine will do its work and you're done.
Well talking about the parts of a lathe machine, it consists of 4 parts which are - the bed, the
headstock, tailstock and the carriage. Just four parts are enough for the manufacturing of this
wonderful machine. The tailstock and the carriage are kept parallel with the help of bed
according to the axis of the spindle in the machine. The bed is also connected to the headstock
and is also known as the base. The function of the headstock is to change gears and look onto
the speed mechanism and as far as the tailstock is concerned, it is placed opposite to the
headstock and its function is to keep space for the tool bits which are used to provide the
shapes. 

After the designing and the parts of this machine, let’s talk about the business productivity.
Well if you want to increase your business productivity then the multi-speed Lathe and the
multi-spindle Lathe are the two best options. Though there are other types of machines also
which are manufactured by the LATHE MACHINE COMPANY apart from these two machines.
Those are pottery wheel, tool room lathes, wood lathes and engine lathes. So there are
different kinds of lathes available in the market but what we need to keep in mind while
choosing is that the lathe we choose is according to our use and work and not of some other
use.

Now as we come towards India and throw some light on the LATHE MANUFACTURERS
INDIA we see that there are absolutely new and good quality machines which are actually very
reliable and efficient. A recently done survey said that the lathe manufacturers in India are very
nice and provide a good quality in machines and they can be searched easily. So at last it’s all
about buying a productive lathe with satisfying features so one must check all what machine is
providing and see whether it caters to the need or not and then buy it.
