Used Milling machines

A milling machine is a machine tool. By means of rotating cutting tools, the milling machine removes material from a workpiece by machining it to the desired shape. Milling is derived from drilling, but milling has at least three feed directions, which allows it to produce complex spatial bodies.

What are milling machines?

Milling machines are versatile machine tools used in metal-working. Even used, milling- machines enable the precise and efficient milling of workpieces by removing material. With the help of rotating milling tools, various shapes and contours can be shaped into metal parts.

What can be made with a used milling-machine?

A wide variety of workpieces can be produced with a used milling-machine. Here are some examples:

• Precision components: High precision components such as gears, screws, bearings and bolts can be produced by milling metal.
• Molds and dies: The second-hand milling machine enables the production of molds and dies for the plastics and casting industries.
• Prototypes: A milling machine can be used to create prototypes of new products to check their functionality and design.
• Individualized parts: Milling can be used to produce customized parts for machines, vehicles or other applications.

Why buy used milling machines?

There are several reasons why buying used milling-machines can be an attractive option:

• Cost savings: second-hand milling machines are usually significantly cheaper than new machines. This allows you to purchase high-quality machines at a fraction of the price.
• Quick availability: Unlike buying new machines, which often have longer delivery-times, used milling machines are usually available immediately. This allows you to continue your production-process without long delays.
• Reliability: Milling machines are robust machines that usually have a long service-life. Buying a well-maintained used machine can give you the same reliability and precision as a new machine.

Types of milling machines

There are several types of milling-machines, including:

• Conventional milling machines: These machines are manually operated and are suitable for simple milling jobs.
• CNC milling machines: Computer Numerical Control (CNC) controlled milling machines offer automated and precise machining capabilities. They are ideal for complex milling work and enable higher productivity.
• Universal milling machines: These machines offer both conventional and CNC milling functions. They offer the flexibility to switch between manual and automated operation as needed.
• Vertical milling machines: In these machines, the milling tool moves perpendicular to the table surface. They are well suited for machining flat workpieces.
• Horizontal milling machines: In these machines, the milling tool moves horizontally to the table surface. They are ideal for machining large workpieces or for roughing work.
