lathe
A lathe is a machine which is used for shaping wood or metal. To cut or shape on a lathe. a machine that shapes wood or metal, by turning it around and around against a sharp tool (Probably from lath (14-15 centuries), perhaps from lad). Machine tool that performs turning operations in which unwanted material is removed from a workpiece rotated against a cutting tool. Lathes are among the oldest and most important machine tools, used in France from 1569 and important in the Industrial Revolution in England, when they were adapted for metal cutting (see Henry Maudslay). Lathes (usually called engine lathes) today have a power-driven, variable-speed horizontal spindle to which the workholding device is attached. Operations include turning straight or tapered cylindrical shapes, grooves, shoulders, and screw threads and facing flat surfaces on the ends of cylindrical parts. Internal cylindrical operations include most of the common hole-machining operations, such as drilling, boring, reaming, counterboring, countersinking, and threading with a single-point tool or tap.

lathe
A lathes is a machine which holds a piece of wood or metal between two centers and turns it so the work can be shaped by hand-held "turning chisels " Foot operated or hand cranked
lathe
woodworking machine, as in: He shaped the legs for the chair on his lathe
lathe
A machine used for shaping an article
lathe
A machine for turning, that is, for shaping articles of wood, metal, or other material, by causing them to revolve while acted upon by a cutting tool
lathe

lathe
The movable swing frame of a loom, carrying the reed for separating the warp threads and beating up the weft; called also lay and batten
lathe
A device that turns glass tubes at a consistent rate so that large pieces can be easily formed into other shapes The use of a lathe frees the hands so that tools can be more efficiently utilized
lathe
A machine that works a piece of material such as wood or metal against a tool by rotating it
lathe
A lathe object is created by rotating a two-dimensional shape around a central axis It is convenient for creating 3D objects like glasses, vases, and bowls
lathe
A tool, usually free standing, for turning a piece while tools are held against it Typically several feet long and about a foot wide Different lathes are used for wood or metal (or glass) pieces A lathe commonly has a headstock that grips the piece and has gears and a motor drive for turning the piece and a tailstock that guides the other end of long pieces Most lathes allow working a piece held only at the headstock, as for making bowl shaped pieces The tailstock is normally mounted on rails (the bed) so it can be moved accurately to different distances while remaining centered on the headstock A wood lathe will have a tool rest to help guide the handheld tools along the piece while a metal lathe will have a solid tool holder with screw adjustments to withstand the increased force Glass lathes are used to join medium and large diameter tubing for scientific glass work, keeping two tubes aligned as heat is applied all around the joint rev 2003-02-27

lathe
Another tool that can do more than just its basic function The Lathe tool lets you "sweep" a 2D template polygon around an axis to create a 3D object that is symmetrical around that axis, as if you'd created it on a machine lathe You can also cause the object to spiral as you go, or to taper in size
