Four flute milling cutting bit, industrial cutting and shaping
A milling machine is a machine tool used to machine solid materials. Milling machines exist in two basic forms: horizontal and vertical, which refers to the orientation of the cutting tool spindle. Both types range in size from small, bench mounted devices to room-sized machines. Unlike a drill press, which holds the workpiece stationary as the drill moves vertically to penetrate the material, milling machines also move the workpiece against the rotating cutter, which cuts on its flanks as well as its tip. Workpiece and cutter movement are precisely controlled to less than in ( mm), usually by means of precision ground slides and leadscrews or analogous technology. Milling machines may be manually operated, mechanically automated, or digitally automated via computer numerical control (CNC).
