What Is a Woodworking Router?

Woodworking milling machines are woodworking machines that use high-speed rotating milling cutters (see Woodworking Tools) to grooving, tenoning, and forming forming surfaces. Woodworking milling machines are divided into three types: vertical single-axis woodworking milling machines, wood mold milling machines and routers.

Woodworking milling machines are woodworking machines that use high-speed rotating milling cutters (see Woodworking Tools) to grooving, tenoning, and forming forming surfaces. Woodworking milling machines are divided into three types: vertical single-axis woodworking milling machines, wood mold milling machines and routers.

The tools of the vertical single-axis woodworking milling machine (see picture) are mounted on the vertical milling cutter shaft protruding from the fixed table. The milling cutter shaft can be tilted and adjusted up and down. The workpieces are fed into the work table and guide plate by hand, and the guide rollers and forming milling fixtures can also be used for side forming and milling. The workpiece can also be clamped on the movable table to process the tenon and end surface. The cutter shaft of the wooden mold milling machine is installed at the front of the cantilever and can be rotated at an angle in a vertical plane. The cantilever can be raised and lowered on the column. The workpiece is clamped on the worktable and can be used for longitudinal, lateral and rotary feed. Wooden mold milling machine is mainly used for model processing.

The cutter spindle speed of the router is very high (up to 20,000 rpm), and the workpiece and the master (see profile machine) are fixed on the base plate of the fixture. When the master mold rotates or moves around the positioning pin in the center of the table, the milling cutter mills the corresponding shape on the workpiece. The table can be lifted and tilted forward. After the 1970s, CNC (see digitally controlled machine tools) routers developed rapidly, mainly in turret and gantry types. The former table moves vertically and horizontally, and the turret head of the cutter moves up and down. The main axis of the latter is moved laterally and vertically, and the table is moved longitudinally. The router is mainly used for the engraving of sheet metal and the milling of forming surface.
