When grinding, an abrasive material such as carborundum is used to remove material from the workpiece. When turning, material is removed from the workpiece with a cutting tool. The worpiece is usually clamped in the jaws of a chuck, and the chuck turns. the tool is clamped to a toolpost and moved along the workpiece and into the workpiece in order to cut material off in a measured amount.
