Milling Machine

A milling machine mainly refers to a machine that processes various surfaces of a workpiece with a milling cutter. In general, the cutter moves in a rotary motion. The movement of the workpiece and the milling cutter is a feed movement. It can process planes, grooves, as well as various surfaces, gears, etc.

A milling machine is a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to mill a workpiece. In addition to milling planes, grooves, gear teeth, threads, and splined shafts, milling machines can also process more complex profiles with higher efficiency than planers, and are widely used in the machinery manufacturing and repair department.

Milling machine is a wide range of machine tools, in the milling machine can be processed plane (horizontal, vertical plane), groove (keyway, T-slot, dovetail, etc.), toothed parts (gears, spline shaft, sprocket), Spiral surfaces (threads, spiral grooves) and various surfaces. In addition, it can also be used for the surface of the rotating body, internal hole processing and cutting work. When the milling machine is working, the workpiece is mounted on a worktable or an attachment such as a dividing head. The milling cutter rotates as the main movement, and the feed motion of the table or the milling head is added to the workpiece to obtain the desired machining surface. Due to the multi-blade interrupted cutting, the productivity of the milling machine is high. In simple terms, a milling machine can be used to mill, drill, and bore a workpiece.
