Geared Lathe Machine

The all geared lathe machine is mainly used for executing various metal shaping tasks in different industries. They basically have a gear box with lead screw and feed shaft that increases its machining capacity.Digital Readout (DRO) Systems are used for indicating the position of the cutting tool relative to a workpiece. The positions are detected by encoders mounted on the axis. They feature a numeric display and keyboard. DRO systems are used with milling and boring machines, lathes and surface grinders.A digital position readout (also known as a DRO, short for digital read out) provides a numerical display showing the position of your machine elements. On a milling machine a 3-axis DRO shows the X- and Y- positions of the mill table plus the Z-axis position of the cutting tool.Digital readouts (DROs) are a great way to maximize new lathe's efficiency or turn a cumbersome manual machine into a thriving profit center again. The DRO essentially translates the direction, distance and location into an easily readable display.
