milling

Milling is a manufacturing process that uses rotary cutters to remove material from a workpiece, shaping it into a desired form. The machine, called a milling machine, can move the cutter or the workpiece in multiple directions to create precise cuts, holes, or shapes. It's commonly used in metalworking, woodworking, and other industries to produce parts with accurate dimensions and complex geometries. The process involves controlling various parameters like speed, feed rate, and depth of cut to achieve the desired finish and precision. Milling is essential in producing everything from machinery components to intricate artistic designs.
