The present invention relates to a chain milling apparatus (1) for milling bag-shaped grooves (2) in furniture panels (3) to accommodate furniture fittings (4), comprising at least one chain milling
machine (5) having at least one linear guide (6) and at least one height-adjustable worktable (7), the at least one height-adjustable worktable (7) comprising a stop (8), a
mating stop (9) having a
support surface (10) for arranging the furniture panel (3) on the
support surface (10), the
support surface (10) being arranged substantially parallel to the stop (8), and at least one adjusting device (11) by means of which the distance (12) between the stop (8) and the
mating stop (9) can be adjusted, the at least one chain milling
machine (5) being able to partially mill along, particularly manually or automatically. The at least one linear guide (6) moves, particularly in a direction extending perpendicular to the end face (13) of the furniture board (3), to mill out a bag-shaped groove (2), and the at least one adjusting device (11) includes at least two adjusting elements (14, 15) and at least one
synchronizing device (16), the at least two adjusting elements (14, 15) being kinetically coupled to each other by the at least one
synchronizing device (16) such that when adjusting at least one of the at least two adjusting elements (14), at least one other adjusting element (15) of the at least two adjusting elements (14, 15) moves together simultaneously, particularly synchronously, particularly rotating together, thereby adjusting the gap (12) between the stop (8) and the
mating stop (9).
