Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a CNC lathe and a manual lathe?

A CNC lathe (turning center) runs a program — often with a turret, live tooling and a bar feeder — and is the production choice. A manual or engine lathe is hand-operated, used for toolroom work, repair and one-off shafts. Aucto lists both. Use the CNC Lathes and Manual Lathes pages to narrow the list.

Do you sell wood lathes or brake lathes?

No. This category is metal lathes for machine shops — CNC turning centers and manual engine lathes. Woodworking lathes and automotive brake lathes are outside this inventory.
