Explanation

Quick return motion is a mechanism used in shapers to return the tool quickly to its starting position after the cutting stroke, saving time. The return stroke is faster than the cutting stroke. Lathes, drilling machines, and grinders don't use quick return motion - they have different motion requirements.
