The difference between milling machine and planer
Before and after the emergence of gantry milling machine; 20 years 20 years there have been semi-automatic milling machine, the table can be used to complete the "feed - speed" or "speed - feed" automatic conversion.
The earliest milling machine was the horizontal milling machine created by American Whitney in 1818. In order to mill the spiral groove of the twist drill, American Brown created the first universal milling machine in 1862, which was the prototype of the milling machine.
Milling machines can be machined with more complex profiles than milling planes, grooves, teeth, threads and splines, and are more efficient than planers and are widely used in machinery manufacturing and repair departments.
After 1950, the milling machine developed rapidly in the control system, digital control applications greatly improve the degree of automation of the milling machine.
