An adjustable collet holder for use with a lathe is provided. The adjustable collet holder may include a set of hold down screws to hold it in place once adjusted. Adjustment may be achieved by adjusting multiple set screws to change both angular and concentricity orientations of a collet receiver relative to a body of the collet holder.

A method of using a pipe machining apparatus according to an aspect includes providing a frame capable of being mounted onto a pipe, a tool carrier coupled to and movable relative to the frame, a tool support coupled to and movable with the tool carrier relative to the frame, and a laser line generator tool mounted on and movable with the tool support. The laser line generator tool images a laser light onto the pipe to align with a mark(s) on the pipe which denotes a proper cut line around the pipe. The apparatus can be repositioned relative to the pipe in order to enable an operator to properly position the apparatus on the pipe prior to a cutting operation.

A tool quick-stop device for a lathe has a base, bottom plate, front side plate, rear side plate, right side plate, left side plate, top fixed plate, tool bar, cam lever, buffer spring, cylindrical guide rail, adjusting nut, first locking nut, double end stud, second locking nut, pressure spring, pressing plate, hold-down bolt and pin shaft. The cam lever supports the tool bar before tool falling. When tool falling is required, the cam lever is rotated through external force. When the cam lever rotates over a certain position, the tool bar instantaneously loses supporting force. Under strong pressure of the pressure spring, the tool bar falls the tool with great acceleration and is separated from the cutting region in a short period of time and the cutting root is frozen.

Systems and methods of the present disclosure relate generally to facilitate performing a task on a surface such as woodworking or printing. More specifically, in some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to mapping the surface of the material and determining the precise location of a tool in reference to the surface of a material. Some embodiments relate to obtaining and relating a design with the map of the material or displaying the current position of the tool on a display device. In some embodiments, the present disclosure facilitates adjusting, moving or auto-correcting the tool along a predetermined path such as, e.g., a cutting or drawing path. In some embodiments, the reference location may correspond to a design or plan obtained from obtained via an online design store.
