Both are used to machine large parts.

4. Instrument milling machine: a small lifting table milling machine, which is used to process instruments and other small parts.

5. Tool milling machine: used for mold and tool manufacturing, equipped with a variety of accessories such as end milling head, universal angle workbench and plug, etc., it can also be used for drilling, boring and inserting.

Second, according to the structure.

1. Desktop milling machine: a small milling machine used for milling small parts such as instruments and meters.

2. Cantilever milling machine: the milling machine with the milling head mounted on the cantilever is horizontally arranged on the bed, and the cantilever can generally move vertically along the column guide rail on one side of the bed, and the milling head moves along the cantilever guide rail.

3. Ram milling machine: a milling machine with a spindle mounted on a ram.

4. Gantry milling machine: the bed is horizontally arranged, and the columns and connecting beams on both sides of it constitute a milling machine for the gantry. The milling head is mounted on the beam and column and can be moved along its rails. Usually the beam can be moved vertically along the column guide rail, and the worktable can move longitudinally along the bed guide rail, which is used for large-scale processing.

5. Surface milling machine: a milling machine used for milling planes and forming surfaces.

6. Copy milling machine: a milling machine for copying the workpiece. It is generally used for machining workpieces with complex shapes.

7. Lifting table milling machine: a milling machine with a lifting table that can move vertically along the bed guide rail, and the workbench and saddle usually installed on the lifting platform can be moved longitudinally and laterally respectively.

8. Radial milling machine: Radial milling machine can also be called turret milling machine, radial milling, universal milling. It has two functions: vertical and horizontal milling, and can mill planes, inclined planes, grooves and splines of medium and small parts.

Third, according to the control mode.

Milling machines can be divided into copy milling machines, program control milling machines and CNC milling machines.

Milling machine classification:

Milling machines can be divided into: horizontal lifting table milling machines; Vertical lifting table milling machine; Gantry milling machine. tool milling machine; A variety of specialized milling machines.
