Machining
Milling consists of using a cutting tool that removes layers of material from a workpiece until it reaches the desired shape and dimensions. Material removal can be performed through abrasion using a grinding wheel or by chip removal, initially removing large amounts of material and finishing with precise erosion of smaller amounts. The cutting tools used must have the appropriate hardness, rigidity, and thermal properties to ensure the success of the process.
