The work of a turner with conical cutting involves the processing of elements using a lathe, which enables the processing of cones with various angles of inclination. A turner performs machining operations such as turning, thread cutting, and milling to obtain the desired shapes and dimensions on the workpiece.

Differences in cutting method
Conical cutting differs from other types of turning mainly in its specialization in the processing of conical elements. Compared to a universal lathe, a conical cutting lathe specializes more and focuses on machining conical-shaped elements.
Compared to a CNC lathe, which operates numerically controlled machines, a conical cutting lathe may be more involved in manually setting the machine and tools to obtain the proper shapes and dimensions on the workpiece.
Finally, unlike a vertical lathe, a conical cutting lathe deals with machining cones with different angles of inclination. This requires special knowledge and skills. A vertical lathe operates vertical lathes designed for machining elements with a vertical axis of rotation.
A conical cutting lathe also differs from a copying lathe, which performs machining based on a pattern. Moreover, it is also different from a multi-spindle lathe, which operates multi-spindle machines to machine multiple pieces simultaneously.
Application of conical cutting
Conical machining is widely used in the machinery, automotive and aviation industries, as well as in the production of tools and devices. Manufacturing plants specializing in the production of conical-shaped elements, such as shafts, gears or tools, use this machining technique.
Conical Cutting Turner – Candidate
The ideal candidate for the position of a conical cutting turner should have solid experience in operating lathes. In addition, knowledge of machining techniques used in conical cutting, the ability to read technical drawings and the ability to work precisely. In addition, analytical skills, quick response to changes in the production process and readiness to work in a dynamic production environment are important.
It is possible to obtain specialized training while on the job. This is especially easy for someone who already has knowledge and experience working with other types of lathes.
