A toolroom lathe, often called a teach lathe, flatbed lathe or combination lathe because of their dual CNC and manual machine control capabilities, is a lathe optimized for lower production of a high mix of workpieces. Since they change machining jobs often, they are easier to changeover the set-up and program from job to job than a standard slant bed production CNC lathe or turning center. Tool room cnc lathes also utilize conversational programming, a type of programming that uses prompts. The prompts are questions regarding part geometry, type of material or metal, as well as the tooling needed to complete the desired features. The conversational control then writes the machine code so the operator doesn't need to know G-code.
