We continues to enhance our visibility and reputation, including exhibitions all over the world and we also actively taking corporate social responsibility.

You see, this design makes your work a lot easier, all you have to do is simply clamp your workpiece in the chuck, perform the first operation, now rotate the turret, and perform the second operation. You can repeat the process as long as you want.

This is a special breed of lathe machine mostly used to make precision parts and tools such as die, gauges, jigs, and fixtures.

Nowadays the machine is driven by an electric motor but back in the 19th-century people used steam engines to drive the machine. That’s why it is called an engine lathe machine even it does contain an engine nowadays.

It is also called center lathe machine, because back then almost all machine tools were driven by either separate engines or central engines.

If you have a light job that requires lathe machine operations such as turning, facing, grooving, parting, threading, drilling, boring, knurling, and tapping, this machine is for you.

An automatic Lathe machine comes with a group of mechanisms that makes it capable of changing and feeding cutting tools automatically.

Due to their high-speed spindle, speed lathe machines are used for woodturning, furniture making, metal polishing, spinning, and centering.

You can guess by the name, special purpose lathe machines are custom-tailored lathe machines to suit particular needs. They are mostly used for heavy-duty jobs, where regular lathes can’t be used, or using regular lathes can be costlier or time-consuming.

When you have a job that is complicated precision operations, requires skills, and you have to produce it in mass quantity… this machine is suitable.

It reduces your workpiece load/unload time:yes, just clamp your workpiece once, and perform as many operations you want in a single setup.

This type of lathe machine is used for woodworking and metalworking. You can perform various machining operations on this lathe machine… such as turning, facing, grooving, knurling, threading, drilling, boring, reaming, and many more.

In this turret, you can set up multiple cutting tools (usually up to 6 tools), such as drilling, countersinking, reaming, tapping, etc.

It looks similar to an engine lathe machine. But it is made from more accurate and precise parts than an engine lathe machine. Thus, the price of a toolroom machine is higher than an engine lathe machine.

A turret lathe machine is an advanced lathe machine used for mass production. It is kind of an upgraded version of an engine lathe, where the tailstock is replaced by a revolving hexagonal turret.
