In view of this, this paper presents a multidisciplinary methodology for designing milling machines that achieve a high level of productivity while at the same time ensuring high machining quality and less energy consumption during their use phase. Following this methodology, an eco-productive milling machine has been designed and manufactured which, combining different technologies (light materials, active vibration damping system etc.), has managed to reduce the inertias involved in servo-drives by over 50%, with a corresponding reduction in energy consumption, whereas the productivity of the machine - measured in terms of metal removal rate- has been increased by 100% in such a way that productivity and eco-efficiency have been combined in a single machine: the eco-productive milling machine.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessconference outputEco-designEco-efficiencyMachine toolStrategy and ManagementSDG 7 - Affordable and Clean EnergySDG 8 - Decent Work and Economic Growthhttp://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?scp=84894167517&partnerID=8YFLogxK
