With milling, parts are cut from a four or six-sided bar stock or sheet stock material (though it can also be a cylindrical rod). The stock is fixtured to the bed of the machine and the features of the part are cut using a rotating tool such as a drill or endmill. With our 3-axis machine, the rotating tool translates relative to the part in the X, Y, and Z axes in any combination of the 3 axes simultaneously.
