[0023] The aforementioned milling machine with automated fixtures integrates a clamping device 5, an electric platform 2, and a rotating device 3, enabling automatic loading and unloading, automatic positioning, and automatic rotational machining of workpieces. This completely eliminates manual intervention in the production process, significantly reduces the time spent on workpiece clamping, adjustment, and transfer, and greatly improves overall machining efficiency.
