Auto Capstan Lathe Machine

Arrow Machine Tools offers an Auto Capstan Lathe Machine. The latest addition to the company’s range of lathe machines, the auto capstan lathe machine is most suitable for machining medium to large batches of components requiring accuracy as well as heavy rate of metal removal. It is fitted with automation for turret indexing, cross slide movement and vertical movement. This machine is mainly used for manufacturing components with mass production capacity, mostly for secondary operations like centring, drilling, reaming, boring, facing, grooving. The term "capstan lathe" overlaps in sense with the term "turret lathe" to a large extent. The word "capstan" could logically seem to refer to the turret itself, and to have been inspired by the nautical capstan. A lathe turret with tools mounted in it can very much resemble a nautical capstan full of handspikes.
