What is vertical mills?

A vertical mill is a type of milling machine where the spindle axis is vertically oriented. Vertical milling machines are commonly used for machining flat surfaces, creating slots and pockets, and for drilling and boring operations. The cutting tool, typically a rotating end mill or face mill, is held in the spindle and moves along the X, Y, and Z axes to remove material from the workpiece. They are commonly used in manufacturing, prototyping, and toolmaking due to their versatility and precision.
