The characteristic feature of the milling process is that each milling cutter tooth removes its share of the stock in the form of small individual chips. TYPE OF MILLING CUTTERS The three basic milling operations are shown below: (A) peripheral milling, (B) face milling and (C) end milling. In peripheral milling (also called slab milling), the axis of cutter rotation is parallel to the workpiece surface to be machined. The cutter has a number of teeth along its circumfere
