Milling machine

Milling
Milling is the machining process of using rotary
cutters to remove material from a workpiece advancing
(or feeding) in a direction at an angle with the axis of
the tool. It covers a wide variety of different operations
and machines,on scales from small individual parts to
large heavy-duty gang milling operations. It is one of
the most commonly used processes in industry and
machine shops today for machining parts to precise
sizes and shapes.
Principle
Milling operates on the principle of rotary
motion. A milling cutter is spun about an axis
while a workpiece is advanced through it in
such a way that the blades of the cutter are
able to shave chips of material with each
pass.
Milling Operations
1.Plain or Slab Milling:
Machining of a flat surface which is parallel to the axis of
the rotating cutter.
2.Face milling:
Machining of a flat surface which is at right angles to the axis
of the rotating cutter.
3.Angular milling:
Machining of a flat surface at an angle, other than a right
angle, to the axis of revolving cutter.
4.Straddle milling:
Simultaneous machining of two parallel vertical faces of
the work-pieces by a pair of side milling cutters.
5.Form milling:
Machining of surfaces which are of irregular shape. The
teeth of the form milling cutter have a shape which corresponds
to the profile of the surface to be produced.
6.Gang milling:
Simultaneous machining of a number of flat horizontal
and vertical surfaces of a workpiece by using a combination of
more than two cutters mounted on a common arbor.
Horizontal Milling Machine

The Horizontal Milling Machine is a very robust and sturdy


machine. A variety of cutters are available to removed/shape
material that is normally held in a strong machine vice. This
horizontal miller is used when a vertical miller is less suitable.
For instance, if a lot of material has to be removed by the cutters
or there is less of a need for accuracy - a horizontal milling
machine is chosen.
Vertical Milling Machine
The vertical milling machine is a precision tool used for
shaping and fabrication by the removal of stock
typically from metallic work pieces. Plastics and other
materials can also be machined on the mill depending
upon tooling and material. Mill controls may be
manually operated, computer numerical controlled
(CNC), or a combination of both. Mill machining and
material removal is typically made by a rotary cutter
held in a spindle. Cutting options are more
sophisticated and variable than a drill press by virtue of
a moveable table and/or vise (x and y-axes) and vertical
spindle movement (z-axis). Many vertical mills also
have a rotatable turret for the upper cutting head which
provides even greater machining options (b-axis
