Some parts are turned, then milled, then turned again — every re-clamp is a chance to lose accuracy. Mill-turn does it in one setup: the shaft is turned, the flats and cross holes are milled, and the part comes off finished.
Concentricity between the turned and milled features is held by the machine, not by luck. It is the right route for valve parts, connectors, stepped shafts with wrench flats, and sleeves with side ports.
