Horizontales
The part of a machine tool’s speed change system that has diameters of different sizes that change ratios to achieve different spindle speeds.
An H-shaped casting that is part of the lathe carriage and slides back and forth on the ways of a lathe. Also, the part of the vertical milling machine that allows movement toward and away from the operator position along the Y-axis
The device that causes machine- powered movement of either the carriage or the cross slide on a lathe when engaged. Found on the apron.
The part of a lathe that supports the lathe cutting tool and provides it with the movement needed to perform longitudinal machining operations. (The apron (bottom) and saddle (top))
The part of a lathe that sits atop the cross slide and provides a means of providing angular tool movement.
A bar spanning the length of a lathe’s bed which contains gear teeth that mesh with a gear in the carriage to create longitudinal movement.
A device located near the headstock of a lathe where the leadscrew and feed rod enter the headstock used to start the machine spindle.
The sliding motion of the saddle of a lathe which is parallel to the ways.
A device located on the apron of a lathe that is used to determine the correct time to engage the half-nut lever during threading operations.
A very long threaded rod supported by bearings at both ends used to transmit motion to the carriage of a lathe for thread-cutting operations.
The part of a lathe’s headstock used to attach various workholding devices to the spindle.
The part of a lathe that sits on top of the saddle and provides cutting-tool movement perpendicular to the ways.
The part of a lathe, attached to the bottom of the saddle that hangs down in front of the bed, which contains several lathe controls.
The part of the lathe located at the upper left side, comprised of a casting that contains the mechanisms used to hold and rotate the workpiece and control the rate of tool movement.
A tapered wedge found on dovetail-shaped slides that can be used to tighten the slide as the dovetail surfaces wear.
Verticales
The heavy horizontal casting located on the right side of the lathe’s headstock, which serves as a foundation for the ways, and is designed to both be strong enough to handle the forces created by the cutting process and ensure precise machining.
A device used to switch between longitudinal and cross feed on a lathe. Found on the apron.
The part of the lathe that slides longitudinally along the ways. contains a hand wheel with a graduated micrometer collar & a precision-ground quill can be used to secure workholding accessories to help support the workpiece in many operations, as well as hold cutting tools for performing standard holemaking operations.
A long shaft, either round or hexagonal, that transmits power to the carriage apron gear train on a lathe.
The accessories mounted to a machine tool used to secure material for machining operations.
A device used to change the direction of the carriage or cross-slide movement on a lathe. Found on the apron.
A small portion of a lathe bed that can be removed, creating a gap, to allow larger-diameter workpieces to be machined.
A device located on the apron of a lathe that controls a split nut that can be engaged directly to the lathe’s leadscrew to perform thread-cutting operations.
The part of the machine tool that rotates either the cutting tool or the workpiece.
A spiral groove made on a round external or internal diameter, such as a screw, bolt, or nut.
The gear train of a lathe located below the headstock that controls the cutting tool’s rate of movement.
The measurement determined by the largest diameter workpiece that can be mounted in the spindle of a lathe without touching the ways.
Precision-ground flat or v-shaped rails on the top of a lathe bed that support the machine’s saddle and tailstock.
