The document provides information on milling machines and gear generation. It discusses the different types of milling machines, milling processes like up and down milling, and milling cutters. The various milling operations like plain milling, face milling and gear cutting are explained. Indexing is described as the process of dividing the workpiece into equal parts and different indexing methods like simple indexing are covered. Gear types, gear forming, and mechanisms used for indexing like worm and worm gear are also summarized.

operations
Types of Milling Cutters

29. Types of Standard Milling Cutters

30. Plain Milling Cutter
Cylindrical in shape having teeth on their
circumference
Used to produce flat surfaces
parallel to axis of rotation
Fig: Plain milling cutter and its elements

31. Plain Milling Cutter
Fig: Plain milling cutter and its elements

32. Depending on size and application: Light duty, heavy
duty and helical plain milling cutters
