ABSTRACT:
A plunge milling system (10) for effecting rapid removal of material from a workpiece during a rough and/or finishing cutting procedure. In this system, an axial cutting tool (12) is rotated about its axis and axially moved into engagement with the workpiece for cutting material from the workpiece. When the tool (12) is engaged with the workpiece, the tool is also moved transaxially and simultaneously with the axial movement whereby material is removed from the workpiece along a curved path.
