Milling Machines and Cnc Mills
MILLING MACHINES AND CNC MILLS Safety Precautions MILL SAFETY HAZARDS Milling machines and computer-numerical-controlled (CNC) mills use moving cutters and/or move stock materials to cut shapes materials such as metal, wood or plastic. Mills cut away material using rotating blades, and can throw or eject dust and chips at high speed. Flying chips present an eye injury hazard. Fine dust can be a respiratory hazard. Mills can also be very loud, presenting a threat to hearing as well as drowning out voices, phones, and alarms. Rotating machinery presents a serious hazard, as gloves, clothing, jewelry or loose hair can be caught and body parts drawn into the running machine. Mills have guards to prevent some exposure, and some are completely enclosed when running. • Keep hands, tools, and clothing at least 12 inches away from the moving mill and do not SAFETY PRECAUTIONS attempt to adjust the mill while operating. • Wear safety glasses or goggles, and hearing Safety rules include: protection if needed.

DS10524_Lathe_Tooling_0921B TORMACH.COM Tormach® CNC Lathe Tooling REFERENCE GUIDE To make the most of a machine purchase, it’s important to understand how cutting tools work and which inserts they pair with. Here is some background on lathe cutting tool and insert terminology: ISO/ANSI Inserts Like metric and imperial measurements standards, the U.S. has its own tool TABLE OF insert classification system; they are called American National Standards Institute (ANSI) designations. All of these ANSI classifications can be converted CONTENTS to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) classifications, but this guide includes both for easier selection. Cutting Tool Designations 3 Turning Tools Cutting tools are easily identified by their designation, which is universal between ISO and ANSI, and, in the machine shop, tool slang often refers to 6 Boring Bars the insert shape, which is also available in the tool designation. Examples and explanations of designations are available at the start of each section. 7 Turning/ Boring Right-Hand vs. Left-Hand vs. Neutral Inserts Right-hand tools are the most commonly used, because they can be used for most turning applications, including making shoulders on the front of the workpiece. Left-handed tools are typically chosen for back turning and making 11 Grooving/ Parting sharp shoulders on the back of the workpiece. Neutral tools are ideal for Tools complex profiling, thanks to their narrow tips. Insert Shapes 12 Grooving/ Parting There are a variety of insert shapes available, but the general note is use Tool Inserts wider inserts for simple geometry and roughing passes, since they have more durability than a more narrow cutting tool, which is needed for complicated or 12 Threading Tools intricate parts. -

Milling Machine Operations
Milling Machine Operations Milling Machine This full article is about milling machine operations. If you haven’t read our complete article on types of milling machine you can read now by clicking here. Let's starts with some little introduction about milling machine and milling machine operations. A milling machine is a machine tool that cuts metal as the workpiece is fed against a rotating multipoint cutter. The milling cutter rotates at a very high speed because of the multiple cutting edges, it cuts the metal at a very fast rate. This machine can also hold single or multiple cutters at the same time. This is why a milling machine has wide application in production work. This is better for other machines as regards accuracy and better surface finish. And also it is designed for machining a variety of tool room work. Milling Machine Operations The 15 different types of milling machine operations are as follow: 1. Plain Milling Operation 2. Face Milling Operation 3. Side Milling Operation 4. Straddle Milling Operation 5. Angular Milling Operation 6. Gang Milling Operation 7. Form Milling Operation 8. Profile Milling Operation 9. End Milling Operation 10. Saw Milling Operation 11. Milling Keyways, Grooves and Slot 12. Gear Milling 13. Helical Milling 14. Cam Milling 15. Thread Milling Read also: Types of Milling Cutters [Complete Guide] TheEngineersPost.com Page 1 Milling Machine Operations Read also: Milling Machine: Main Parts and It’s Working Principle Types of Milling Machine Operations Plain Milling The plain milling is the most common types of milling machine operations. Plain milling is performed to produce a plain, flat, horizontal surface parallel to the axis of rotation of a plain milling cutter.
