Introduction to milling machine

Milling machine mainly refers to a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to process various surfaces of the workpiece. Generally, the rotary motion of the milling cutter is the main motion, and the movement of the workpiece and the milling cutter is the feed motion. It can process planes, grooves, and various curved surfaces, gears, etc.

A milling machine is a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to mill the workpiece. In addition to milling plane, groove, gear tooth, thread and spline shaft, milling machine can also process more complex profile, with higher efficiency than planer, and is widely used in mechanical manufacturing and repair departments.

The milling machine is a widely used machine tool. It can process plane (horizontal plane, vertical plane), groove (keyway, T-shaped groove, dovetail groove, etc.), gear dividing parts (gear, spline shaft, sprocket), spiral surface (thread, spiral groove) and various curved surfaces. In addition, it can also be used to process the surface and inner hole of the rotary body and cut off. When the milling machine is working, the workpiece is installed on the workbench or indexing head and other accessories, and the milling cutter rotates mainly, supplemented by the feed motion of the workbench or milling head, so that the workpiece can obtain the required processing surface. Because of the intermittent cutting with multiple edges, the productivity of the milling machine is high. In short, a milling machine is a machine tool that can perform milling, drilling and boring on the workpiece.
