    Overview

    Gap lathes are specialized types of lathes that feature a removable gap section in the bed. This design allows for machining of larger diameter workpieces that wouldn't fit into a standard lathe. They are often used in metalworking and manufacturing industries to handle large, bulky parts with precision.
