5 Types of a Taper Turning Methods On Lathe Machine

Taper Turning Methods There are five different types of taper turning methods in lathe machines. 1.  Form tool method 2. Tailstock set over method 3. Compound rest method 4. Taper turning attachment method 5. Combining feeds method When using any of these techniques, it is critical that the cutting tool be precisely centered with respect to the axis of the workpiece; otherwise, the workpiece will not be properly conical, and the rate of taper will fluctuate with each cut.
