Abstract
A high speed milling machine [supermill-2m] has been developed. It uses linear guide and liner motor for XYZ 3-axis, high-resolution linear scale and high performance CNC controller to realize high speed and high precision machine movement. It is equipped with two high speed spindles of 50,000 and 160,000 min-1 for rough milling, finish milling and fine milling of the mould. Compact design, lightweight of moveable parts and isolation structure of height source and vibration source from machine base have been used to realize highly efficient and high precision mould machining. Machine characteristics and machining samples will be reported in the research.
