The CNC lathe (เครื่อง กลึง CNC, which is the term in Thai) is a set of tools that are rotated and clamped by the prime spindle when the tool is cut to work on the material. Then it is moved or mounted through the various axis. It is generally used for making machine parts that have similar symmetry around the ais and then it is chucked up in the spindle. An ordinary Lathe operates on 2 axis and tools that are placed in a fixed position. The rotating part is termed as “turning” and thus, there are a few types of CNC lathes that are called CNC Turning Machines.
