Common types of milling machines

Milling machine classification we can from the layout of the form and scope of application, structure, control these three aspects of classification.
First, according to the layout form and scope of application to distinguish
1, lifting table milling machine: universal millming, horizontal and vertical, mainly used for processing small and medium-sized parts, the most widely used.
2, longmen milling machine: including longmen milling and boring machine, longmen milling and planing machine and double column milling machine, are used for processing large parts.
3, single column milling machine and single arm milling machine: the former horizontal milling head can move along the column guide rail, the table for longitudinal feed; The vertical milling head of the latter can be moved horizontally along the cantilever rail, and the cantilever can also be adjusted along the column rail. Both are used for processing large parts.
4, instrument milling machine: a small lifting table milling machine, used for processing instruments and instruments and other small parts.
5, tool milling machine: used for mold and tool manufacturing, with vertical milling head, universal Angle table and plug and other accessories, but also for drilling, boring and inserting and other processing.
Two, according to the structure
1, table milling machine: small for milling instruments, meters and other small parts of the milling machine.
2, cantilever type milling machine: milling head mounted on the cantilever of the milling machine, bed horizontal layout, cantilever generally along the side of the bed column guide rail for vertical movement, milling head along the cantilever guide rail movement.
3, sliding pillow type milling machine: spindle installed on the milling machine sliding pillow.
4, gantry type milling machine: the bed horizontal layout, the two sides of the column and connecting beam frame of the milling machine. The milling head is mounted on the beam and column and can be moved along its guide rail. Usually the beam can move vertically along the column guide rail, and the table can move longitudinally along the bed guide rail for large processing.
5, plane milling machine: used for milling plane and forming surface milling machine.
6, copying milling machine: the workpiece copying milling machine. Generally used for machining complex shape workpiece.
7, the lifting table milling machine: with vertical movement of the lifting table along the bed guide rail milling machine, usually installed on the lifting table and the saddle can be respectively for longitudinal and transverse movement.
8, radial milling machine: radial milling machine can also be called turret milling machine, radial milling, universal milling. With vertical and horizontal milling functions, it can be used for milling medium and small parts of plane, inclined plane, groove and spline, etc.
Three, according to the control mode
Milling machine can be divided into copying milling machine, program control milling machine and CNC milling machine.
