    - Lathe machine is a metal cutting machine tool.

    - These tools are required to make components of desired shape, size and accuracy.

    - Lathe machine is used to remove undesirable material in form of chips.

    - A lathe machine basically produces two types of surfaces i.e flat and cylindrical surface.

    - Flat surface can be obtained on a lathe machine, if cutting tool moves perpendicular to the axis of rotation. Cylindrical surface can be obtained, if cutting tool moves parallel to the axis of rotation.
