Abstract
Lathes are being used since a long period of time and tooling and designing method, and the purposes for which it has been used most of the times are drilling and boring holes that are usually conical or cylindrical in shape. The manual lathe usage primarily depends upon the machinist and the experience in the designing field. With time there has been a major improvement in the efficiency and quality of part development, which is a result of numerical control into the process of tool designing and the use of lathe. The most advanced and the latest technique in this area is ...
