Heavy Duty Milling Machine

What is a heavy duty milling machine？

Generally, according to machine weight and size, metal machine tools can be divided into instrument machine tools (light duty machine tools), medium-sized machine tools (general machine tools), large machine tools (weight greater than 10t), heavy duty machine tools (weight more than 30t) and super heavy machine tools (weight more than 100t). Our milling machines can be divided into light duty milling machines, medium duty milling machines and heavy duty milling machines according to the batch qantity of workpiece processed by customers, cutting strength, processing range of milling machines and price. However, customers have a wide range of recognition for heavy duty milling machines. Generally speaking, the table size, three-axis stroke, mani motor power, spindle taper, machine weight and other specifications determine whether the milling machine is heavy-duty or not.

Table size

Generally, the left and right dimensions of the worktable are more than 1500mm, and the front and rear dimensions are more than 350mm;

Three axis stroke

Depending on the size of the table;

Main motor power (spindle motor)

Generally higher than 4kw;

Spindle taper

Ordinary heavy duty milling machines are generally ISO40 or above;

Machine weight

General machines are 2.5 tons or more;

In addition, some customers will distinguish heavy-duty milling machines according to whether the 3-axis of the milling machine has automatic feed function, whether the milling head can feed automatically, and the price of the machine.
