MILLING
& KEY MILLING
Milling is a machining process used to remove material from a workpiece using a rotating cutter. Key milling is a specific type of milling used to create keyways or slots in a workpiece. Milling and key milling are used in a variety of industries to produce a wide range of products, from machine parts and components to automotive and aerospace components.

Milling and Key Milling are machining processes used to remove material from a workpiece and create keyways or slots for mechanical components such as keys or pins. These processes are widely used in various industries, including manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, power generation, and marine.

The Milling process involves a rotating cutting tool that removes material from the workpiece, producing a flat or contoured surface. The cutting tool is mounted on a spindle that is driven by a motor, and the workpiece is clamped in place on a worktable. The cutting tool can be moved in multiple directions, allowing for precise control over the shape and size of the machined surface.
Key Milling is a specialized form of milling used to create keyways or slots in a workpiece. Keyways are commonly used to connect mechanical components, such as gears or pulleys, to a rotating shaft. Key milling involves removing material from a workpiece to create a rectangular groove, or keyway, that matches the shape and size of the key or pin.
