   The lathes were mainly used to produce screws, due to the increasing demand from the watchmaking industry. Junker also further developed the so-called Schweizer Drehbank (Swiss lathe), an invention of Jakob Schweizer from 1880. Following Anselme Marchal's departure, the company was entered in the commercial register in 1886 under the name N ...

   Automatic lathes were first developed in the 1870s and were mechanically controlled. From the advent of NC and CNC in the 1950s, the term automatic lathe has generally been used for only mechanically controlled lathes, although some manufacturers (e.g., DMG Mori and Tsugami) market Swiss-type CNC lathes as 'automatic'.

   A view inside the enclosure of a CNC Swiss-style lathe/screw machine. A Swiss-style lathe is a specific design of lathe providing extreme accuracy (sometimes holding tolerances as small as a few tenths of a thousandth of an inch—a few micrometers). A Swiss-style lathe holds the workpiece with both a collet and a guide bushing. The collet sits ...

   Early lathes, those prior to the late medieval period, and modern woodworking lathes and potter's wheels may or may not fall under this definition, depending on how one views the headstock spindle itself; but the earliest historical records of a lathe with direct mechanical control of the cutting tool's path are of a screw-cutting lathe dating ...

8. Rose engine lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_engine_lathe

   A rose engine lathe is a specialized kind of geometric lathe. The head stock rocks back and forth with a rocking motion and/or slides along the spindle axis in a pumping motion. A rosette or cam-like pattern mounted on the spindle is controlled by moving against a cam follower(s) while the lathe spindle rotates.

9. Chuck (engineering) - Wikipedia

   A backplate with threads may screw onto a threaded spindle nose (for lathe work) or onto an adapter plate with the same nose, to be mounted on the table of milling machines or surface grinding machines. This "threaded spindle nose" type of mounting was the typical method in the 19th century through 1930s.
