T01- Introduction to Turning on Lathe

What is turning ? Turning is a machining process used to generate cylindrical and conical surface by rotating the work piece and with the help of cutting tool. The machine where the turning process is usually carried on is called as lathe , where a cutting tool is fed against a rotating work-piece. What is the working principle of Lathe? The principle of operation is shown in the figure. Here both the work piece and the tools are rigidly held on the lathe. Then the tool is provided with longitudinal and transverse movement while the work-piece is being rotated at suitable speed. Basically three type of major surface can be produced depending on the movement of the tool, They are as follows:- I. When the tool moves parallel to the axis of rotation of the work piece, a cylindrical surface can be produced. Which is as shown below. II. When the tool moves at an angle to the axis of the work piece, a tapered surface can be produced.  Which is as shown below. III. When the tool moves perpe

Jowar (ಜೋಳ)

It is flowering plant belongs to grass family Poaceae . It is also known as Sorghum, which is cultivated extensively in India and other country. Earlier Jowar was used in food made for animals but now people have started incorporating it in their diet due to its incredible health benefits. Now a day all bakery and homemade dishes make uses of all-purpose flour/Maida which is not good at all for health. A healthy alternative to all-purpose flour is jowar.
