Rotary Transfer Machine. A rotary transfer machine is a machine tool, typically for metal working by machining, comprising a large indexing table with machining stations surrounding the table. Such rotary transfer machines are used for producing a large number of parts in fairly short cycle times. [1] [2] [3]
The largest machines can handle stock up to 3 in (76 mm) wide, 12.5 in (320 mm) long, and 3 ⁄ 32 in (2.4 mm) thick. For wires the limit is 1 ⁄ 8 in (3.175 mm). [ 3 ] Other limits are the travel on the slides, which maxes out at 3 ⁄ 4 in (19.05 mm), and the throw of the forming cams, which is between 7 ⁄ 8 and 2 in (22 and 51 mm).
Center lathe with digital read out and chuck guard. Size is 460 mm diameter x 1000 mm between centers. In machining, a metal lathe or metalworking lathe is a large class of lathes designed for precisely machining relatively hard materials.
The second picture is of a commercially available lapping machine. The lap or lapping plate in this machine is 30 cm (12 in) in diameter, about the smallest size available commercially. At the other end of the size spectrum, machines with 2.4-to-3.0-metre-diameter (8 to 10 ft) plates are not uncommon, and systems with tables 9 m (30 ft) in ...
A lathe dog is a mechanical device typically made of cast iron, steel or aluminum that transmits rotary motion from a faceplate to a workpiece mounted between centers in a lathe. [1] The tail of the dog is rotated by a slot in a driving faceplate, a stud mounted on a faceplate, or sometimes a side of a chuck jaw. The workpiece passes through an ...
The rotary bushings are located at the center of the rotary table. These can generally be removed in two separate pieces to facilitate large items, e.g. drill bits, to pass through the rotary table. The large gap in the center of the rotary bushings is referred to as the "bowl" due to its appearance.

The machine is sometimes advertised as a "universal cutter-grinder", but the "universal" term refers only to the range of compound angles available, not that the machine is capable of sharpening the universe of tools. The machine is not capable of sharpening drill bits in the standard profiles, or generating any convex or spiral profiles.
