Metal Working
Metalworking is the process of working
with metals to create individual parts,
assemblies, or large scale structures.
It therefore includes a correspondingly
wide range of skills and the use of
many different types of metalworking
processes and their related tools.
PRE HISTORY
Metalworking predates history. No one
knows with any certainty where or
when metalworking began.
The advance that brought metal into
focus was the connection of fire and
metals.
Not all metal required fire to obtain it
or work it.
Metalworking was being carried out by
the South Asian inhabitants of
Mehrgarh between 7000–3300 BC
Around the date 2700 BC, production
of bronze was common in locales
where the necessary materials could
be assembled for smelting, heating,
and working the metal.
Iron was beginning to be smelted. Iron
began its emergence as an important
metal for tools and weapons.
The Iron Age was dawning.

About AUTOMATE machines
In a turret lathe, a longitudinally
feedable, hexagon turret replaces the
tailstock.
The turret, on which six tools can be
mounted, can be rotated about a
vertical axis to bring each tool into
operating position, and the entire unit
can be moved longitudinally, either
manually or by power, to provide feed
for the tools
