2. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_(machining)

   In face milling, the cutting action occurs primarily at the end corners of the milling cutter. Face milling is used to cut flat surfaces (faces) into the work piece, or to cut flat-bottomed cavities. In peripheral milling, the cutting action occurs primarily along the circumference of the cutter, so that the cross section of the milled surface ...

3. Facing (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facing_(machining)

   Face milling can be achieved with an end mill, but is often done with a face mill, shell mill or a fly cutter. Face milling can be done in both manual machining and CNC machining. To obtain a smoother surface finish it is best to let the machine feed the table. Newer manual milling machines and CNC machines will have this option, but older ...

4. Milling cutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_cutter

   Milling cutters are cutting tools typically used in milling machines or machining centres to perform milling operations (and occasionally in other machine tools).They remove material by their movement within the machine (e.g., a ball nose mill) or directly from the cutter's shape (e.g., a form tool such as a hobbing cutter).

5. End mill - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_mill

   Contouring/Profiling: this is a process used to mill different surfaces such as flat or irregular ones. This type of process can be done during the roughing or finishing phase of the overall operation. [3] Facing: is an operation used to face the part down to specified dimension. Facing can be done using end mills or a special face mill. [4] [5 ...

6. Machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

   Milling operations are operations where the cutting tool with cutting edges along its cylindrical face are brought against a workpiece to remove material in the profile of the spinning tools shaft and lower edge. [7] Milling machines are the principal machine tool used in milling. Advanced CNC machines may combine lathe and milling operations.

7. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

   Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

8. Pencil milling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencil_milling

   Pencil milling is a cleanup toolpath generated by computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) programs to machine internal corners and fillets with smaller radius tools to remove the remaining material that are inaccessible with larger tools used for previous roughing, semi-finishing, and finishing toolpaths. The name comes from the way that a pencil ...

9. Cutting tool (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_(machining)

   Milling and drilling tools are often multipoint tools. Drilling is exclusively used to make holes in a workpiece. All drill bits have two cutting edges that are ground into two equally tapered angles which cuts through the material by applying downward rotational force. Endmills or milling bits, which also cut material by rotational force ...
