ABSTRACT:
A machining system and method is provided wherein a hydraulic motor of the gear-type where high RPMs are desired, or a piston or GEROLER-type motor where high torque and lower RPMs are desired is mounted to a spindle forming a spindle assembly mountable to a robotic manipulator or other machine tool. Significantly, cutting tools or bits mounted in the spindle are provided with cutting edges having neutral or negative angles, which have been found to greatly facilitate machining operations in composite and other esoteric aerospace and aeronautical materials.
