·        Carriage is the component that holds the cutting tool responsible for the cutting of the workpiece. It carries the crossfeed slide and the rest compound which holds this cutting tool. The carriage moves along the length of the bed for performing the cutting process.

·        Toolpost It is a tool holding device mounted on guideways

·        Cross slide is a component found on the top of a lathe that allows the tool bit to slide back and forth.

·        Apron It is designed to hold the gears, levers, and other components that push the cross slide.
