Milling and Boring Machine

Types of Milling and Boring Machine

Milling and boring machine, as its name tells, is the machine tool whose machining process utilizes spinning tools to remove materials by advancing a tool into one or several work pieces under either the control of a computer numerical control (CNC) system or manual operation.

Nowadays this kind of machines is usually controlled by CNC system and the precision is controlled within a relatively small tolerance. The boring and milling methods could be done on different directions that are based on the different tracks installed on the axes, which are installed on the moving tracks of the machine body.

Bridge Type Milling Machine

Bridge type milling machine is designed with two vertical column structures, so it’s also called double column milling machine. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once.

At first, bridge type milling machine is developed from milling machines with enhanced cutting rigidity, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.

Chamfering Machine

A chamfering machine is machinery that can proceed the cutting of transitional edge between two faces on an object. Sometimes chamfering is defined as a form of bevel, and it is often processed at a 45° degree angle between two adjoining right-angled faces.

Chamfers are frequently used in metal machining, carpentry, furniture manufacturing, concrete formwork, printed circuit boards, and to facilitate assembly of many mechanical engineering designs, rendering well designed structure as well as shapes.

Copy Milling Machine

A copy milling machine is a milling machine that is capable of making copy process of machining using rotary cutters to remove unwanted materials by advancing a cutter into a work pieces. This may be done varying direction on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure.

Copy milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to tiny operations. It is one of the most commonly used processes for machining custom parts to precise tolerances.

CNC Boring Machine

CNC boring machine, as its name tells, is the machine tool with the machining process utilizes spinning tools to bore materials by enlarging a hole that has already been drilled by means of a single-point cutting tool, such as in boring a gun barrel or an engine cylinder under the control of a computer numerical control (CNC) system.

Nowadays this kind of machines is usually controlled by CNC system and the precision is controlled within a relatively small tolerance. The boring methods could be done on different directions that are based on the different tracks installed on the axes, which are installed on the moving tracks of the machine body.

CNC Milling Machine

CNC milling machine is the milling machine that is designed with the CNC feature, allowing the whole milling process to be done under the control of a computer numerical control (CNC) system.. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once.

At first, CNC milling machine is developed from milling machines with enhanced repeatibility, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.

Gantry Type Boring and Milling Machine

Gantry type boring and milling machine is designed with two vertical column structures, so it’s also called double column boring and milling machine. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once.

At first, gantry type boring and milling machine is developed from milling machines with enhanced cutting rigidity, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.

Horizontal Boring and Milling Machine

Horizontal boring and milling machine is designed with horizontal align structures. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once due to its horizontal rather than its original vertical arrangement.

At first, horizontal boring and milling machine is developed from milling machines with enhanced flexibility, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.

Horizontal Milling Machine

Horizontal milling machine is milling machines designed with horizontal align structures. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once due to its horizontal rather than its original vertical arrangement.

At first, horizontal milling machine is developed from milling machines with enhanced flexibility, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.

Knee Type Milling Machine

In the metal working industry, knee type milling machine is also called nee-and-column mill, which refer to any milling machine whose x-y table moves upwards and downwards by the column on a vertically adjustable knee.

This design also includes Bridge ports. Milling is the process of machining utilizing rotary cutters to remove materials by advancing a cutter into a work piece. This may be done varying direction on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure.

Universal Milling Machine

Universal milling, as its name tells, is the process of machining that utilizes spinning tools to remove materials by advancing a tool into one or several work pieces. This machining method could be done on different directions.

Besides turning, milling covers a wide variety of various operations and ranges a wide scale from single tiny parts to heavy and large gang milling operation tasks. Similar to turning, milling is one of the most usually adopted machining methods that render accurate tolerances.

Vertical and Horizontal Milling Machine

Vertical and Horizontal milling machine, as its name tells, is the process of machining that utilizes spinning tools to remove materials by advancing a tool into one or several work pieces under the structure of both vertical and horizontal column structure designs. This machining method could be done on different directions.

Besides turning, milling covers a wide variety of various operations and ranges a wide scale from single tiny parts to heavy and large gang milling operation tasks.

Vertical Boring and Milling Machine

Vertical boring and milling machine is designed with vertical align structures. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once if the milling machine is equipped with supportive accessories such as ATC, tool magazine, APC, and rotary tables.

At first, vertical boring and milling machine is developed from milling machines with boring capacity, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.

Vertical Milling Machine

Vertical milling machine is designed with vertical align structures. This type of machine is a highly developed machine tool that can deal with many kinds of mill tasks all at once if the milling machine is equipped with supportive accessories such as ATC, tool magazine, APC, and rotary tables.

At first, vertical milling machine is developed from conventional milling machines with enhanced machining capability, and since then, the development of this specific type of machine tools goes well in the industry, and after that, machine centers are widely applied in all kinds of industries, contributing a wide range of industrial efforts.
