TURNING
Turning is one of the machining processes, that removes the material. Turning decreases the diameter of a workpiece up to a particular dimension and provides a smooth part surface.

Service overview
Turning is a material removal process. The process decreases the diameter of a workpiece to a particular dimension and produces a smooth surface. By using this method, we refine the already manufactured components. The method offers high tolerance and surface finishing; hence it is ideal for adding precision rotational features to already prepared parts.
We use many types of turning processes
It removes the metal in the short time besides the accuracy and surface finish.
In face turning process, tool rotates along the perpendicular direction to the axis of the workpiece material. This process produces a square surface finish with its axis.
Also known as cylindrical turning, in which the work diameter reduces to a particular dimension while moving the carriage tool along the work.
The method is useful when the workpiece has different diameters for turning. Machining or the surface forming of this part from one width to the other is called the shoulder turning.
The method gives the tapering surface on the cylinder. With this method, one can produce conical shapes.
In eccentric turning, a cutting tool removes material to the required depth, typically at low speed.
Features of a Turning process
⦁ Turning is a form of machining needs a turning machine or lathe, workpiece, fixture, and cutting tool.
⦁Turning is useful on the parts having holes, grooves, threads, tapers, various diameter steps, and contoured surfaces,
⦁The turning process minimizes the number of tools and setups of machining.
⦁The turning process possesses lower requirements for tolerance and surface roughness and reduces the costs.
