7 Major Parts of A Benchtop Milling Machine. These are some important parts of a benchtop milling machine that you need to know. We compile them from the top to the bottom as the following: 1. Motor. The source of energy. The electric energy from the outlet is converted into motion and the motion will spin the cutting tools.
It consists of a taper that holds the milling tool. The spindle is linked to the main motor of the CNC machine. The CNC controller reads and translates the G-code, rotating the spindle at the specified speed. Spindle rotation is very important as it drives the cutting tool. This component also houses the milling chuck.
Design parameters. I general, 3-Axis CNC milling machines have a moving table in X-Y axes and tool head moving in only Z-axis (vertical). These machines are also called vertical 3-axis CNC milling machines. But in this setup, the tool head (spindle) is able to move in all the three X, Y & Z axes.
