What are the technological characteristics of milling?

The technological characteristics of milling are as follows:

1. Fix the blank, feed it on the blank with a high-speed rotating milling cutter, and cut out the required shape and features.

2. Traditional milling is mainly used for milling simple shape features such as contours and grooves. CNC milling machine can process complex shapes and features.

3. Milling and boring are used for machining, molds, checking fixtures, fixtures, thin-walled complex surfaces, artificial prostheses, blades, etc.

4. Milling is a way of cold working of metal. When milling, the cutter will rotate at high speed driven by the spindle.

Matters needing attention in milling are as follows:

1. During milling, the workpiece can be fed along or relative to the rotation direction of the tool, which will affect the starting and ending characteristics of cutting.

2. The choice of milling cutter diameter is usually based on the width of the workpiece and the effective power of the machine tool. Especially in face milling, the milling width of the workpiece will directly determine the diameter of the milling cutter, because it will help to ensure good chip formation and appropriate cutting edge load.

3. Every time the milling insert enters the incision, the cutting edge may be affected by the impact load. This depends on the chip cross section, workpiece material and chip type. For the milling process, it is extremely important that the types of initial contact and final contact between the cutting edge and the workpiece material are appropriate.

4, before operation should check whether the milling machine parts and safety devices are safe and reliable; Check whether the safety and reliability of the electrical parts of the equipment are good.

5. When loading and unloading workpieces, the workbench should retreat to a safe position. When fastening the workpiece with a wrench, the direction of force should avoid the milling cutter to prevent the wrench from touching the tool or fixture when slipping.
