The machining of thin-walled elements used in the aviation industry causes may problems, which create a need for studying ways in which undesirable phenomena can be prevented. This paper presents the results of a study investigating face milling thin-walled elements made of titanium alloy, aluminum alloy and polymer composite. These materials were milled with folding double-edge cutters with diamond inserts. The results of maximum vertical forces and surface roughness obtained after machining elements of different thicknesses and unsupported element lengths are presented. The results of deformation of milled elements are also presented. The results are then analyzed by ANOVA. It is shown that the maximum vertical forces decrease (in range 42–60%) while the ratio of vertical force amplitude to its average value increases (in range 55–65%) with decreasing element thickness and increasing unsupported element length. It is also demonstrated that surface roughness deteriorates (in range 100% for aluminum, 30% titanium alloy, 15% for CFRP) with small element thicknesses and long unsupported element lengths. Long unsupported element lengths also negatively (increasing deformation several times) affect the accuracy of machined elements.
