It is that of all the machines employed
by the mechanic to aid he in his work.
The lathe holds the honor of having
been the first machine tool. From it all
other machine tools have been
developed as they are.
 INTRODUCTION
Lathe is known as the mother machine tool
It is one of the most widely used machine
tools in all parts of the world
An engine lathe is the most basic and
simplest form of the engine lathe
Engine lathe derives it’s name from the
early lathes, which obtained their power
from engines
 COVENTIONAL LATHES
Bulky
Placed at a fixed place
Maintenance
Huge space required
High initial cost
 PORTABLE MINI LATHE

CONCEPT
The portable mini lathe is a
simplest wood turning machine having simple
constructional parts which favour less effort
to operate.
CONSTRUCTION OF PORTABLE MINI LATHE

Mini wood lathe is a portable machine and made up of using plywood, it

is commonly used for machining wooden or plastic work pieces. So here
we study the fabrication of a mini lathe machine our machine consist of a
drill machine( for high torque) used to drive the lathe chuck. The lathe
consist a bed of plywood with movable arrangement, it is also consist of
a ball bearing which is allowed to free rotation and support of job from
the other side. It also consist a holder to hold the desired tool and this
holder can slide over bed in parallel to axis of job rotation. We use chuck
attached to drilling machine shaft in order to rotate the job. The machine
is build to hold the work piece and move the tool in sliding mechanism,
so as to achieve a desired operations. The machine outer face is design to
hold the work piece firmly with tool in place so as to achieve desired
operations with ease. Thus we successfully study the design
 OBJECTIVES

Prototype of Mini lathe with simple
mechanism driven by Drill Machine
It Reduces the capital cost
Fabricated devices are portable and easily
assemble and dismantle
It helps to ordinary workers to conduct
machining effectively
