Milling is a highly versatile machining process that uses rotating, multi-edge cutters to generate flat and contoured surfaces. Because of its effectiveness, cutting tool choices, and compatibility with automation, milling with machining centers is perhaps the most important high-volume manufacturing process for shaping materials. Part of the Fundamental Manufacturing Processes Video Series, this program provides a broad understanding of the milling process, including segments on: *The basic components of the knee mill and machining centers, *Milling cutters, operations, accessories, and process variables, *Toolchanging, workchanging & workholding arrangements on machining centers. It concludes with a review to summarize and reinforce the presented material.
