tailstock termin techniczny
footstock

If the part is long then it may be supported with the help of an accompanying tailstock.

The tailstock was also of completely new design.

The tailstock can be slid along the axis of rotation and then locked in place as necessary.

In this configuration a tailstock can also be used, thus holding the workpiece "between centers."

The tailstock can be positioned along the bed and clamped (T6) in position as dictated by the work piece.

Lathes have three main components: the headstock, the carriage, and the tailstock.

These machines consist of (at the least) a headstock, bed, carriage, and tailstock.

The tailstock is a tool (drill), and centre mount, opposite the headstock.

A tailstock is particularly useful when the workpiece is relatively long and slender.

Traditionally, a hard dead center is used together with suitable lubricant in the tailstock to support the workpiece.

Hinged at the tailstock end, it swung upright and latched into place- "A drill press!"

Failing to use a tailstock can cause "chatter," where the workpiece bends excessively while being cut.

Usually, the entire tailstock is moved to the approximate position that it will be needed by manually sliding it along its ways.

A pre-sized metal disk is then clamped against the block by a pressure pad, which is attached to the tailstock.

For spindle turning, the wood is held on the lathe either by both ends (between the headstock and tailstock) or by one end only.

A machine tool may have several spindles, such as the headstock and tailstock spindles on a bench lathe.

A lathe center is mounted in the tailstock, and inserted against the sides of a hole in the center of the workpiece.

The tailstock quill or extendible portion usually has a Morse taper mount in the end of it to secure the drill or reamer.

The length of the bush should be 1/8in longer than the distance between the back of the centre and the front face of the tailstock casting, when fully retarded.

Although a bench lathe has more than one spindle (counting the tailstock), it is not called a multispindle machine; it has one main spindle.

The butt end of the future cannon was held in the lathe's jaws; the front, already center-drilled, was held steady by a live center projecting from the tailstock.

To hold the bar or workpiece at the tailstock end (thus serving as a steady rest) or following the tool (thus serving as a follower rest).

The tailstock contains a barrel which does not rotate, but can slide in and out parallel to the axis of the bed, and directly in line with the headstock spindle.

Each gear hobbing machine typically consists of a chuck and tailstock, to hold the workpiece or a spindle, a spindle on which the hob is mounted, and a drive motor.

There is also provision to offset the tailstock (T4) from the spindles axis, this is useful for turning small tapers, and when re-aligning the tailstck to the axis of the bed.
