Cutting fluid can also be stored in the base. It also helps in the absorption of shocks. The base is mostly made up of cast iron, so it has good strength and rigidity. It is a type of foundation for the machine.
The base is the part upon which the whole machine parts are being mounted. It is very accurate and has a high production speed Gradually with time now we have the most advanced form of the Milling machine which is the CNC Milling Machine. Now, these machines can perform multiple operations.
Later he developed a semi-automatic Milling machine which further enhanced the production. Eli Whitney got a big order from the government for the production of Musket. Inventor name: Eli Whitney invented the Milling machine in the year 1818.ĭuring that time, it was used for the making of gun parts.
This was the better-developed form of the Milling machine. Then in the 18th century in the united states, a machine was used which was similar to the lathe machine but in this machine, The cutting tool is used to rotate and the workpiece uses to remain stationary. It was used by the clockmakers at that time. The milling machine is believed to come into existence in 17 the century.
