What will I learn?
The Mechanical Lathe Course provides practical, hands-on training to operate traditional lathes safely and effectively. You will learn about lathe parts, how to hold workpieces, setup and alignment, then gain expertise in cutting settings for medium carbon steel, selecting tools, and managing chips. Through practice, you will perform precise machining steps, measurements, tolerancing, and problem-solving to produce reliable, weld-ready shafts and high-quality outcomes more quickly.
