Milling Machine Fundamentals: This study unit focuses on the fundamentals of milling machines. It begins with a brief historical overview of milling machines, and then you will learn basic milling concepts such as peripheral and face milling, the milling machine coordinate system, and feed, speed and depth of cut. You will also learn about the basic features and common parts of a mill. This study unit will explore the various types of mills and in the final section you will learn about automation of milling machines and modern computer controlled machining centers. Milling Machine Cutting Tools: In this study unit you will learn about milling machine cutters in more detail. You'll be presented with in depth information about tool design and materials. At the end of this unit, metal cutting theory, the principles of tool wear, and milling economics are discussed.
