» Bed-type Milling MachinesThis type of milling machine has a special design in that the sliding table is directly mounted on a very strong bed of the machine and can never be moved in transverse direction. The only movement is longitudinal motion. The spindle head can be adjusted vertically for the depth of the cut. The machines are made from high quality material that allows minimum vibration during machining as well as maintain high accuracy. Current designs in bed milling machines have greater horsepowers, higher speed range, more stiffness and more innovative table design to handle greater variety of workloads. Development of new materials such as super alloys and titanium has also contributed to rapid innovation.
