It is a machine which is used to remove metals from the work piece with the help of a revolving cutter called milling
cutter. It is used to machine the flat, rough and irregular surfaces and this is done by feeding the work piece against a
rotating milling cutter.
5. Table
It is a rectangular casting which is present on the top of the saddle.
It is used to hold the work or work holding devices.
It contains several T-slots for holding the work and work holding devices (i.e. jigs and fixtures).
The table can be operated by hand or by power. To move the table by hand, engage and turn the longitudinal hand
crank. To move it through power, engage the longitudinal direction feed control lever.
Most of the milling machine classified above has self-electric driven motor, coolant systems, power
operated table feed and variable spindle speeds.
6. Gang Milling
It is the machining process in which two or more milling cutters are used together to perform
different milling operation simultaneously. In gang milling the cutters are mounted on the arbor.
7. Form Milling
It is the process of machining special contour (outline) composed of curves, straight lines, or entirely
of curves, at a single cut. Formed milling cutters shaped to the contour to be cut are used to perform
this operation. This operation is accomplish by using convex, concave and corner rounding milling
cutters.
8. Profile Milling:
This milling operation is used to cut a profile on the workpiece.
9. End Milling
It is the process of producing flat surfaces which may be horizontal, vertical and at any angle taking
worktable as a reference. End milling cutters are used to accomplish this operation.
It is also used for the parting off the workpiece into two equal or unequal parts.
This milling operation is performed by using saw milling cutter.
The width of the this cutter is very less as compared with the width of the workpiece.
