Understanding the types of CNC gantry milling machines

Before purchasing a machine tool, we must first understand the types of CNC gantry milling machines.

Based on their structure and function, they can be divided into three main types:

  1. Fixed-beam type: The crossbeam is fixed, while the worktable moves. This design is suitable for machining workpieces with minimal height variation.
  2. Moving-beam type: The crossbeam can move up and down, while the worktable moves back and forth. This is suitable for machining workpieces with greater height.
  3. Moving-column type: Its column can move, suitable for workpieces requiring a wide machining range.

When making a selection, you should determine the appropriate machine tool type based on the size of the workpieces and the machining requirements of your company. A larger machine with a wider machining range is not necessarily better for your business.
