Ordinary Lathe Machine

Classic Ordinary Lathe Machine

The ordinary lathe machine is the most basic and widely used type in the field of mechanical processing, mainly used for processing various metal and non-metal materials’ rotating surfaces, including cylindrical, conical, end face, groove, thread, and other complex shapes. It is a machine tool that removes material by rotating the workpiece relative to a fixed cutting tool.
 

Main components:

  • Bed: Supports and connects all components of the lathe with high rigidity and stability to ensure accuracy during processing.
  • Headstock: Contains the main spindle and drive system. The main spindle is where the workpiece is mounted and rotated, while the drive system controls the rotation speed of the workpiece.
  • Tool post: Used to install cutting tools which can be manually or automatically moved along transverse (X-axis) and longitudinal (Z-axis) directions for cutting operations.
  • Tailstock: Located at the other end of the bed to support the end of longer workpieces ensuring stability during processing. The tailstock can be adjusted according to workpiece length.
 

Functions and characteristics:

  • Versatility: Ordinary lathes can perform external turning, internal hole boring, facing operations; threading; drilling; tapping; reaming; parting off etc.
  • High precision machining: Despite being a basic type of lathe machine when operated skillfully it can still achieve high precision machining requirements.
  • Ease of operation: Compared to complex CNC lathes, operating an ordinary lathe is simpler and more intuitive making it easier to learn & use – an important equipment in mechanical education & training.
 

Applications:

Due to its simple structure good stability low cost advantages ordinary lathes are widely used in various fields such as:
 
  • Mechanical manufacturing: Processing various mechanical parts & accessories
  • Mold making: Manufacturing & repairing various simple molds
  • Maintenance works: Repairing different mechanical parts & equipment
  • Education & Training : Teaching practical skills related to mechanical machining
The popularity & application of ordinary lathes provide a solid foundation for development in mechanical processing industry. Although CNC technology excels in precision & complex machining areas yet ordinary lathes remain indispensable basic equipment in many workplaces.
