Classification & Definition of the Milling Machine tool, what is milling?
Milling standards
National and international standards are used to standardize the definitions, environmental requirements, and test methods used for milling. Selection of the standard to be used is an agreement between the supplier and the user and has some significance in the design of the mill. In the United States, ASME has developed the standards B5.45-1972 Milling Machines and B94.19-1997 Milling Cutters and End Mills.
Milling Machine precision parameters
General tolerances include: +/-.005" for local tolerances across most geometries, +/-.010" for plastics with variation depending on the size of the part, 0.030" minimum wall thickness for metals, and 0.060" minimum wall thickness for plastics.[32]
Vertical Milling Machine
The milling machine in which the spindle axis is perpendicular to the table is called vertical milling machine.
Knee-Type Milling Machine
The milling machine which has a knee like projection at the middle is called knee-type milling machine. It is characterised by a vertical adjustable work table resting on a saddle supported by a knee.
Knee mill or knee-and-column mill
refers to any milling machine whose x-y table rides up and down the column on a vertically adjustable knee. This includes Bridgeports.
Elevator milling machine
There are universal, horizontal and vertical, etc., mainly used for processing small and medium-sized parts, the most widely used.
Single-column milling machine
The former horizontal milling head can be moved along the column guide rail, and the table can be fed longitudinally;

FORTUNE PACIFIC milling machine is a versatile machine tool that can machine planes (horizontal, vertical), grooves (keyways, T-slots, dovetails, etc.), splitting parts (gears, spline shafts, sprockets) on the milling machine. Spiral surfaces (threads, spiral grooves) and various curved surfaces. In addition, the mill can also be used to process and cut the surface of the rotor and the inner hole. When the milling machine is working, the workpiece is mounted on the workbench or the indexing head and other accessories. The milling cutter rotates as the main motion, supplemented by the feed motion of the worktable or the milling head, and the workpiece can obtain the required machining surface. Due to the multi-edge interrupted cutting, the productivity of the milling machine is high. Simply put, milling machines are machines that can mill, drill and boring workpieces.
