About Lathe Tailstock:


A tailstock, also known as a foot stock, is a device often used as part of an engineering
lathe, wood-turning lathe, or used in conjunction with a rotary table on a milling machine. It is
usually used to apply support to the longitudinal rotary axis of a workpiece being machined.
Lathes can be divided into three types for easy identification. engine lathes, turret lathes,
and special purpose lathes. Small lathes can be bench mounted, are lightweight, and can be
transported in wheeled vehicles easily.
