Method for clamping a work piece on a machine tool

摘要

The method of machining a workpiece in a machine tool has the workpiece (1) clamped (2) and the work and clamp rotated. A cutting tool (8) is held in a holder (6) by its shaft (7). The axes of the tool holder (C) and the workpiece (A) are held at an angle and the tool holder fixed so that the tool produces a bore in the workpiece. The tool is then withdrawn and a lathe tailstock taper (3) is inserted in the formed bore.
