newer milling machines or machines with minimal spindle wear. Rigidity is critical when using carbide tools. Carbide end mills may require a premium price over the cobalt end mills, but they can also be run at speeds 2 1/2 times faster than HSS end mills. The choice of tool material depends on the material to be cut as well as on the maximum

Milling machines differ from lathes in the sense that they use a rotating cutting tool. Lathes have stationary cutting tool, whereas milling machines have a cutting tool that rotates as it presses against the workpiece. While all milling machines follow this same principle, there are several different types of them. Vertical Milling Machine

Milling says: Remember a casting has a draft. This makes the depth of the cut vary when cutting with the draft. Make sure that the machine has enough horsepower and the work holders sufficient strength to handle the greatest depth of cut which will be encountered.
