Machine tools that process workpieces that rotate around a shaft with the help of a cutting pen are called lathes. Lathes are used most in industry and mainly do the following: face turning, external turning, cylindrical internal and external surface treatment, tapered internal and external surface treatment, drilling, threading, chamfering, tapping, grooving, cutting , profile turning, die drawing, reaming, spring winding, knurling, screwing, copy and profile processing or complex special operations. Face turning is the most commonly used turning process. In general, lathes come in two types: horizontal lathes and vertical lathes.

The machine equipment used in the lathe to connect the workpiece is called a mirror. Universal mirrors are the basic equipment used in all lathes. The body is the main part of the lathe made of cast iron and is the basic organ of the machine. The other components of the lathe are connected to the body. In the spindle box or the speed box, there is a gearwheel with speed adjustment. The feed box serves to regulate the rotational speed of the lathe. There is also a chip shaft and main shaft attached to the body.

Lathes are among the machines that need to work precisely and create a danger to employee health. In accordance with the Regulation on Health and Safety in the Use of Work Equipment, the control of lathes and equipment must be carried out under conditions deemed appropriate by the manufacturer, unless otherwise stipulated in the relevant standards. However, if the manufacturer does not foresee any period or condition, then a risk assessment is made by looking at the workplace conditions in which the machines are used and control periods are determined accordingly. However, it must be checked at least once a year.
