ABSTRACT:
A lathe for processing a workpiece into a nonaxisymmetric shape including a cutter to be always contacted with a workpiece surface at an almost fixed angle. A first support shaft is rotatably supported around a first axis mounted on a tool rest, and a second support shaft is rotatably supported around a second axis mounted on and off-centered from the first axis. Also, a third support shaft is rotatably supported around a third axis mounted on and off-centered from the second axis, and a holder for holding the cutter is secured to one end of the third support shaft. A controller controls the rotating angles of the support shafts to control the movement of the cutter forwards and rearwards and also its contact angle.
