The characteristics of external surface turning include:
1. Simple tooling, easy to manufacture, sharpen, and install;
2. The cutting process is smooth, with minimal cutting force fluctuation, facilitating high cutting speeds and improving productivity;
3. The machine tool is highly versatile, capable of machining external surfaces, end faces, internal holes, threads, and chamfers in a single setup. The relative positional accuracy of the various surfaces can be easily guaranteed;
4. It is suitable for finishing non-ferrous metal parts.
