For example, metal processing

1. Plane milling: machining workpiece surfaces (such as flat plates, bases, flanges, etc.).

2. Slot/keyway machining: slotting (such as T-slots, dovetail slots), keyways (for connecting shafts and gears).

3. Contour milling: machining complex shapes (such as mold cavities, cams, turbine blades).

4. Drilling/tapping: machining holes or threads through the drilling function of the milling machine.
