3. Metal lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_lathe

   These rigid machine tools remove material from a rotating workpiece via the (typically linear) movements of various cutting tools, such as tool bits and drill bits. Metal lathes can vary greatly, but the most common design is known as the universal lathe or parallel lathe.

   The first CNC machines were built in the 1940s and 1950s, based on existing tools that were modified with motors that moved the tool or part to follow points fed into the system on punched tape. [3] These early servomechanisms were rapidly augmented with analog and digital computers, creating the modern CNC machine tools that have ...

   In the case of the CNC lathe, the CAM software will optimize the tool path to have the central axis of the part align with the rotary of the lathe. [16] Once the tool paths have been generated, the CAM software will convert them into G-code, allowing the CNC machine to begin milling. [17]
