The rotating center point allows high speeds and is used on lathes, grinding machines and measuring machines.

The stationary center point is always more precise and stiffer when running, but causes friction. For this reason, carbide centering tips are predominantly used today to reduce abrasion on the centering cone surface. As a rule, all centers can be repaired, i.e. the centering cone surface can be reground or the ball bearings of the rotating centers can be replaced.
