Lathe machines are used to shape metal, wood and other materials into desired shapes and sizes. These machines operate on the rotating workpiece principle and utilize fixed cutting tools that help in facing, centering, chamfering, knurling, drilling, boring, reaming, tapping, thread cutting and parting off. They comprise leg, bed, chuck, apron, headstock, tailstock, carriage, saddle, cross-slide, compound rest, tool post, lead screw, feed rod and main spindle. At present, they find extensive applications in woodturning, metal spinning, thermal spraying, glass working and parts reclamation.
The growing trend of industrial automation and precision manufacturing represents one of the major factors bolstering the market growth as lathe machines enhance product uniformity and improve the value chain. Moreover, lathe machines are gaining traction in manufacturing various medical implants and equipment on account of their high speed, accuracy and reduced operating costs. Apart from this, the escalating demand for fuel-efficient automobiles with advanced safety features is promoting the adoption of lathe machines for forming different parts of vehicles. Due to the availability of technical expertise, cheap labor and low raw material costs, several foreign firms are setting up their manufacturing facilities in emerging countries like China and India. This is creating lucrative opportunities for manufacturers to expand their consumer base and maintain a competitive edge. Furthermore, the emergence of the Fourth Industry Revolution (Industry 4.0) is encouraging the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) in lathe machines, which is anticipated to drive the market.
