Modern milling machines look much the same as they did 30 years ago. However, they now must cut superalloys, titanium, and high-tensile steels to closer tolerances and at faster rates than before. To ...

Cat's PM-465 has simplified grade and slope control system that provides three operating menus. On-board electronics also regulate speed, steering and rotor drive, plus self-diagnostics. Milling ...

If you’re interested in making things (and since you’re reading this, we’re going to assume you are), you’ve almost certainly felt a desire to make metal parts. 3D printers are great, but have a lot ...

Milling machines, also known as cold planers, complete the same task today as they did 30 years ago, but they have seen several innovations over the years and are continuing to evolve. It was actually ...

Tangential milling may double or triple insert edge life while allowing for higher material-removal rates. TWO SHOPS HAVE FOUND THAT THEY can improve their rough-machining operations by adopting ...

Siemens used this test part to demonstrate new state-of-the-art milling techniques. It is made of tool steel hardened to 54 HRC and was machined on a Micron HPM 800U machining center. Something most ...

Today, milling machines are recognized as an integral part of the process for achieving quality pavement performance standards. Take a look at the journey these units have taken over the last 25 years ...

“With this new 5-axis machine, we can perform further post-processing on almost all the composite components we make,” says Marcel Gillis, CEO of Refitech. “That was a long-held wish of us and our ...

The BOMAG BM 2200/75 cold mill, using a 760-horsepower engine, can mill “half-lane” widths reaching to 86.6 inches at depths of to 13.8 inches. The machine can be fitted with a range of optional quick ...
