A capstan lathe is a production machine, which combines the characteristics of the basic lathe along with a capstan head and set of depth stops, one for every turret face. The chief body is fixed to the bed in the necessary place and all longitudinal movement is by means of short slide. It is very rare to find a capstan lathe carries with a lead screw or a taper attachment, as these lead screw threading is normally too slow for further production. A die head could be used instead of this.

Oil country and hallow spindle lathes are normally comes in saddle turret type.
