2. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   Multiaxis machining is a manufacturing process that involves tools that move in 4 or more directions and are used to manufacture parts out of metal or other materials by milling away excess material, by water jet cutting or by laser cutting. This type of machining was originally performed mechanically on large complex machines.

   The drum contains a drill head which consists of several spindles that are mounted on ball bearings and driven by gears. There are two types of attachments for these drill heads, fixed or adjustable, depending on whether the center distance of the drilling spindle needs to be varied. [10] Water jet cutter

4. Automatic lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_lathe

   An automatic lathe may have a single spindle or multiple spindles. Each spindle contains a bar or blank of material that is being machined simultaneously. A common configuration is six spindles. The cage that holds these six bars of material indexes after each machining operation is complete. The indexing is reminiscent of a Gatling gun. Each ...

5. Spindle (tool) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_(tool)

   In machine tools, a spindle is a rotating axis of the machine, which often has a shaft at its heart. The shaft itself is called a spindle, but also, in shop-floor practice, the word often is used metonymically to refer to the entire rotary unit, including not only the shaft itself, but its bearings and anything attached to it (chuck, etc.).

6. Metal lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_lathe

   For example, a centering lathe is a dual head machine where the work remains fixed and the heads move towards the workpiece and machine a center drill hole into each end. The resulting workpiece may then be used "between centers" in another operation. The usage of the term metal lathe may also be considered somewhat outdated these days ...

7. Machine taper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_taper

   Drill chucks mounted by Jacobs tapers onto arbors with Morse tapers for the spindle. Spindle nose on a lathe headstock. The small female taper is a Morse taper to take a lathe center or a tool such as a twist drill. The large male taper takes a lathe chuck, which is retained by the large nut.
