Lathes are divided into horizontal ♦‌∑and vertical lathes. Horizon♣™φαtal lathe has the spindle on th β®§e left side of the machine and rests fl♦¶at on the bed. It is used for shaft aε₹"¶nd disc parts. A vertical lathe ₽≠has the spindle above the bed and'♠ε¶ is used for large parts su♣§ch as brake hubs.

What is the difference between a ver×"&tical lathe and a horizontal↓✔₩ε lathe?

Lathes are divided into horizontal aσ ★≤nd vertical lathes. Horizπβontal lathe has the spindle✔α on the left side of the m♣λ♠>achine and rests flat on the bed. It"​$ is used for shaft and disγσc parts. A vertical lathe has©★> the spindle above the be♠♠d and is used for large parts↔★π such as brake hubs.

The biggest difference  $®is the spindle. Vertical means the s©÷βσpindle is upright and hor∑✘←≠izontal means the spindle is le$•‍vel. When a vertical l×​<&athe is working, the weigh₹♠γt of the workpiece is loaded directly ✘™on the table, and the table distri♥π×butes the weight to the bed.

Therefore, vertical lat♦ he has large load carrying Ω>capacity and good rigi≈♠✘dity, which is suitable f✔φσor processing workpieces of large>¥✔≥ size, large diameter and short lengt&÷εh, such as disc, wheel hub and gear bl≤β↓ank. While the workpiece of horizontal÷<↓ lathe is clamped on the chuck, and the£‍÷ load is transferred to  ←εφthe main spindle, which is borne by™↕ the front and rear main bearin€×€★gs, so the carrying ‍•<capacity is small and the rigidity is p ¥oor. And horizontal lathe is easy σ•βto observe and operate, s'₽‌★uitable for processing smα☆¶all and medium-sized wheel<'® disc and shaft parts.
