Horizontal boring machines or horizontal boring mills are machine tools that machine (and bores holes) in a horizontal direction. There are three main types — table, planer and floor. The table type is the most common, and it is the most versatile. A horizontal boring mill has its work spindle parallel to the ground and work table. Typically there are 4 linear axes in which the tool head or part move. The main axis that drives the part towards the work spindle is the Z axis, with a cross-traversing X axis and a vertically traversing Y axis. The spindle's quill serves as the W axis. The quill is an extendable part of the spindle that is used to machine areas that are difficult to reach and is primarily what differentiates the horizontal boring mill from the horizontal machining center. The work spindle is referred to as the C axis and, if equipped, a rotary table serves as the B axis.
