Cat's PM-465 has simplified grade and slope control system that provides three operating menus. On-board electronics also regulate speed, steering and rotor drive, plus self-diagnostics. Milling ...

Modern milling machines look much the same as they did 30 years ago. However, they now must cut superalloys, titanium, and high-tensile steels to closer tolerances and at faster rates than before. To ...

The five-axis milling process continues to expand and evolve as machine tools and tooling become more capable. As an example, I recently learned about a new workholding system introduced to the market ...

It’s easy to assume that not much has changed with face mills for a while. There’s been so much attention on other milling processes over the last few years, and face mills, or shell mills, were ...

It's hard to imagine a piece of equipment that works harder in tougher conditions than a pavement mill. These tireless machines grind away all day long under load, at times removing more than a foot ...

Wirtgen's W 150 F(i) compact milling machine features a milling width of 1.80 m (6 ft.) and is designed for use on major construction sites with restricted space, such as inner city locations. Compact ...
