3. MILLING
Milling: is a metal cutting operation in which the excess material from the work piece is removed by rotating multipoint cutting tool called milling cutter.
Milling machine: is a power operated machine tool in which work piece mounted on a moving table is machined to various shapes when moved under a slow revolving serrated cutter.

4. PRINCIPLE OF MILLING

5. COMPARISON BETWEEN UP MILLING & DOWN MILLING
SL. NO.
UP MILLING
(CONVENTIONAL MILLING)
DOWN MILLING
(CLIMB MILLING) 01
Work piece fed in the opposite direction that of the cutter.
Work piece fed in the same direction that of the cutter. 02
Chips are progressively thicker.
Chips are progressively thinner. 03
Strong clamping is required since the cutting force is directed upwards & tends to lift the work piece.
Strong clamping is not required since the cutting force is directed downwards & keep the work piece pressed to the table. 04
Gives poor surface finish, since chips gets accumulated at the cutting zone.
Gives good surface finish, since the chips are thrown away during cutting. 05
Used for hard materials.
Used for soft materials and finishing operations.

23. GRINDING(Abrasive machining)
Grinding is a surface finishing operation where very thin layer of material is removed in the form of fine dust particles. (thickness mm)
Grinding can be defined as a material removal process by the abrasive action between rotating abrasive wheel & the work piece.
Grinding machine is a power operated machine tool where, the work piece is fed against a constantly rotating abrasive wheel which is also called as Grinding wheel so that a thin layer of material is removed from the work piece.

24. PRINCIPLE OF GRINDING
The work piece is fed against a constantly rotating abrasive wheel so that a thin layer of material is removed from the it.

26. ABRASIVES
Abrasives: These are the mineral materials employed for sharpening, grinding & polishing operations.
Abrasives are classified as natural & artificial.
Natural Abrasives: Emery, Corundum, Diamond etc,.
Artificial Abrasives: Silicon Carbide(SiC), Aluminum Oxide(Al2O3), Cubic Boron Nitride(CBN) etc,.

27. Bonding materials & Process
Vitrified Process: Abrasive+ Fed spar & clay, heated at higher temperatures in kilns.75-80% of grinding wheels are made by this process.
