1. Lathe processing means that the work piece rotates, but the tool does not rotate; the milling machine processing means that the tool rotates but the work piece does not rotate. A lathe is a machine tool that mainly uses a turning tool to turn a rotating workpiece.

2. Drills, reamers, reamers, taps, dies and knurling tools can also be used on the lathe for corresponding processing. Shenyang machine tools are mainly used for processing shafts, discs, sleeves and other workpieces with rotating surfaces, and are the most widely used type of machine tools in machinery manufacturing and repair factories.
3. Rotary processing machines such as milling machines and drilling machines are all derived from lathes. In Hong Kong and other places in our country, some people call it a turning bed. Milling machine refers to a machine tool that mainly uses milling cutters to machine various surfaces on a workpiece.
4. Generally, the rotary motion of the milling cutter is the main motion, and the movement of the workpiece (and) the milling cutter is the feed motion. It can process planes, grooves, various curved surfaces, gears, etc.
5. A milling machine is a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to mill a workpiece. In addition to milling planes, grooves, gear teeth, threads, and spline shafts, milling machines can also process more complex profiles with higher efficiency than planers. Shenyang machine tools are widely used in machinery manufacturing and repair departments.

The milling machine is a machine tool with a wide range of uses. On the milling machine, it can process planes (horizontal planes, vertical planes), grooves (keyways, T-slots, dovetail grooves, etc.), and gear parts (gears, spline shafts, sprocket wheels, etc.). Spiral surface (thread, spiral groove) and various curved surfaces. In addition, it can also be used to process the surface of the revolving body, the inner hole and the cutting work. When the milling machine is working, the workpiece is mounted on the worktable or the indexing head and other accessories , Milling cutter rotation is the main movement, supplemented by the feed movement of the worktable or the milling head, the workpiece can obtain the required processing surface. Because of the multi-tool intermittent cutting, the productivity of the milling machine is high. The milling cutter is used to treat the workpiece. Machine tools for milling. In addition to milling planes, grooves, gear teeth, threads and spline shafts, milling machines can also process more complex profiles. The efficiency is higher than that of planers. Shenyang machine tools are widely used in machinery manufacturing and repair departments. .
