Up milling and down millingdifference

Milling is one type of conventional machining process primarily for generating flat or stepped surfaces. In peripheral milling, cutting velocity is imparted by rotating the milling cutter about a fixed horizontal axis; whereas, the feed rate is imparted by moving the workpiece (basically worktable) against the rotating milling cutter. Since both cutting velocity and feed rate are vector quantities, so based on their mutual directions, peripheral milling can be classified into two groups—up milling and down milling. Each of them has specific advantages and disadvantages, as illustrated below. Various similarities and differences between up milling and down milling are given in table format in the following sections.
