Abstract
A method for plunge milling a workpiece. The method includes rotating a cutting head while advancing the cutting head along a direction towards the workpiece; removing material from the workpiece with frontal teeth disposed on a frontal face of the cutting head; bending a tool holder configured to lead the cutting head inside the workpiece; stopping the advancing of the cutting head along the direction towards the workpiece when the cutting head has reached a predetermined depth inside the workpiece; and retrieving while rotating the cutting head from the inside of the workpiece such that side teeth of the cutting head remove material from the inside of the workpiece due to the bending of the tool holder.
