Turning is a fundamental machining process used to produce cylindrical components by rotating a workpiece against a stationary cutting tool. This subtractive manufacturing method is widely employed in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and precision engineering to create shafts, bolts, bushings, and other rotationally symmetric parts with tight tolerances and fine surface finishes. By controlling factors like spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut, manufacturers can achieve high accuracy and repeatability in mass production or custom machining applications.
