What is the end mill used for?
The End Mill is a tool used on a milling machine, a machine found in a metal work store that is used to remove the material from the metal block to become a finished part. It is one of the tools used on the milling machine to create a specific type of cut. One completed has only one useful work end; The other end is just a smooth stem for holding the tool in the tool holder on the milling machine. The double ending has two useful working ends. When one end becomes boring and is no longer useful, it can be installed so that the opposite end can be used. It is also common for the end mills to be covered with a very thin layer of titanium nitrate. Titanium nitrate is a gold coating that prevents the removal of metal chips from this part, reducing its life and qualitatives of the cut. End mills come in a wide range of shapes and sizes. For those who are not familiar with metal machining, it will look like a special drill.
While this tool can be used to drill a hole, its function is much greater than that. In many ways, the milling machine with an end mill is very similar to the wood router. It can be used to cut blind holes or grooves, bevelled edges, cut the flat edge and create holes in the material block. It can also be used to produce bearing competitors and cylinders. You can't make a square hole with an end mill, but you can create a square post. If it is connected to the milling machine, it is perhaps the most versatile machine in the store.
