Modern milling machines look much the same as they did 30 years ago. However, they now must cut superalloys, titanium, and high-tensile steels to closer tolerances and at faster rates than before. To ...

The German machining company says the FZG is suitable for particularly long components for use in aerospace, energy or rail applications.

The bulk of the milling machine market consists of half-lane machines weighing from 60,000 to 90,000 pounds and typically equipped with roughly 7-foot-wide cutting drums, which are powered by 600- to ...

The five-axis milling process continues to expand and evolve as machine tools and tooling become more capable. As an example, I recently learned about a new workholding system introduced to the market ...

The BOMAG BM 2200/75 cold mill, using a 760-horsepower engine, can mill “half-lane” widths reaching to 86.6 inches at depths of to 13.8 inches. The machine can be fitted with a range of optional quick ...

CMI introduces the updated Roto‑Mill™ milling machine range. Designed with input from operators and industry leaders, oto‑Mill™ delivers the most complete set of standard and optional high performance ...

It’s easy to assume that not much has changed with face mills for a while. There’s been so much attention on other milling processes over the last few years, and face mills, or shell mills, were ...

The BM 2200/65 milling machine has a maximum milling width of 58 inches. The 60,296-pound half-lane mill has a 630-horsepower engine that matches power with milling speed for efficient milling to ...
