And then we will list the capacities of the 3 second-hand traveling column milling machines newly added to our inventory.

What is a traveling column milling machine?

A traveling column milling machine is a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to machine metal parts. The milling cutter is a rotating tool with several teeth that are used to cut, carve or roughen the part. The moving column milling machine has a vertical column that supports the milling head, which can move in three directions: horizontal, vertical and axial.

Parts of a traveling column milling machine

The main parts of a traveling column milling machine are:

• Column: Supports the milling head.
• Milling head: Contains the main spindle, which rotates the milling cutter.
• Work table: Supports the part to be machined.
• Guides: Allow movement of the column and milling head
• Control: Allows programming of machining operations.

Applications of traveling column milling machines

Traveling column milling machines are used in a wide range of industrial applications, including:

• Manufacturing of metal parts: Traveling column milling machines are used to machine metal parts of any shape and size. Some of the machining operations that can be performed with a moving column milling machine are: drilling, tapping, profiling, grooving, roughing and finishing.
• Mold and die manufacturing: Traveling column milling machines are used to machine molds and dies, which are used to manufacture parts from plastics and other materials.
• Manufacturing of tools and fixtures: Traveling column milling machines are used to machine tools and fixtures, which are used to manufacture other parts.
• Industrial maintenance: Traveling column milling machines are used to repair and maintain metal parts.

Traveling column milling machines offer a number of advantages, including:

• Versatility: Traveling column milling machines can perform a wide range of machining operations.
• Precision: Traveling column milling machines can provide high machining precision.
• Productivity: Traveling column milling machines can increase machining productivity.

Disadvantages of traveling column milling machines

Traveling column milling machines also have some disadvantages, including:

• Cost: Traveling column milling machines are large, high-capacity machine tools, so their cost is high.
• Space requirement: Traveling column milling machines require a large amount of space for installation.

Now that we have seen what a traveling column milling machine is and what it is for, we will explain in detail the 4 machines that make up our stock in this category:
