1. Meaning of Milling Machine: Milling is the process of removing metal by feeding the work past a rotating multipoint cutter. In milling operation the rate of metal removal is rapid as the cutter rotates at a high speed and has many cutting edges. Thus the jobs are machined at a faster rate than with single point tools and the surface finish ...
