  2. Spindle (tool) - Wikipedia

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

    On a lathe (whether wood lathe or metal lathe), the spindle is the heart of the headstock. In rotating-cutter woodworking machinery, the spindle is the part on which shaped milling cutters are mounted for cutting features (such as rebates, beads, and curves) into mouldings and similar millwork.

  3. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    The introduction of CNC-controlled lathes has provided a practical, everyday solution via automated CSS Machining Process Monitoring and Control. By means of the machine's software and variable speed electric motors, the lathe can increase the RPM of the spindle as the cutter gets closer to the center of the part.

  4. Machine taper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_taper

    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.

  5. Surface feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_feet_per_minute

    SFM is a combination of diameter and the velocity of the material measured in feet-per-minute as the spindle of a milling machine or lathe. 1 SFM equals 0.00508 surface meter per second (meter per second, or m/s, is the SI unit of speed). The faster the spindle turns, and/or the larger the diameter, the higher the SFM.

  6. 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.

  7. Woodturning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodturning

    In spindle turning, the grain runs lengthwise along the lathe bed, as if a log were mounted in the lathe. Grain is thus always perpendicular to the direction of rotation under the tool. In bowl turning, the grain runs at right angles to the axis, as if a plank were mounted across the chuck.
