Illustrated description of lathe manufactured by Arthur Scrivener, Ltd, designed primarily for machining of camshafts for aircraft and automobile engines; it differs fundamentally from conventional cam turning lathes, in that tool is given no "in-feed" when cutting; cutting action is really more that of facing than of turning.
