Where is the origin of the CNC lathe machine?

Where is the origin of the CNC lathe machine?

Answer:

The position of the machine reference point is precisely adjusted by the machine tool builder on each axis with the limit switch. The coordinate value has been entered into the CNC system, so the reference point is a known number for the machine origin.
The machine reference point is a fixed point for the machine movement to detect and control.
In the CNC lathe, the origin of the machine is generally taken at the intersection of the end of the chuck and the center line of the spindle, and by setting the parameters, the origin of the machine can be set in the positive and negative positions of the X and Z coordinates
Usually in the CNC milling machine on the origin of the machine and the machine reference point is coincident; and in the CNC lathe machine reference point is the farthest limit from the machine tool origin must first determine the machine origin, and determine the origin of the machine tool is the knife back to the reference
