Gantry Milling

If you have some familiarity with milling machines, you may have come across the concept of gantry milling. But what exactly does it entail, and why does it capture interest?

Gantry milling is a milling process that involves using a specialized machine with a large overhead structure called a gantry. This gantry provides stability and support for the milling machine as it moves in multiple directions (x, y, and z axes). The advantage of gantry milling is that it allows for the creation of large and complex parts with high precision. The gantry machine can accurately cut and shape materials, resulting in intricate and precise components.
