As a supplement to my last, more theoretical video, today I would like to show you milling turning in practice. I have chosen a chess piece as a test object, which is intended to represent a possible area of application. Based on the experience gained in the tests, I had to make significant changes to the entire process. (V6.10)
Although milling turning is certainly no real competition for turning on a lathe, I am pleasantly surprised by how well it works. There are a lot of small turned parts, such as game pieces, handles, furniture knobs, etc., that can be produced very well with this method.
In addition to the familiar possibilities of a turning axis, milling turning thus offers another convincing argument for sensibly expanding the range of applications of a conventional 3-axis milling machine.
Sorry, but unfortunately, the video is only available with German subtitles. I would be very happy if someone would try out milling turning and perhaps even make a video of it.
Maybe even in English.
