Turning is a widely used machining process in which material is removed from a workpiece to shape it into a cylindrical form. This process is typically carried out using a lathe, which rotates the workpiece while a cutting tool removes excess material. The workpiece is securely held in place by a fixture, ensuring precise and accurate cuts. The cutting tool, usually made of hard, durable materials, is carefully selected to match the type of material being worked on and the desired outcome. Turning is commonly employed in the production of components such as shafts, wheels, and other cylindrical or conical parts, offering high precision and smooth finishes.
