Abstract: Proposed in a milling head, which has a plurality of machining milling teeth and tooth gaps arranged therebetween, whereby the milling teeth and the tooth gaps are arranged along a circumferential surface of the milling head, which milling head is to be provided with a number of milling teeth, which is greater than and/or substantially equal to the number of milling teeth ascertained using the equation y=a·x5+b·x4+c·x3+d·x2+e·x+f, wherein x is the diameter of the milling head in millimeters and y is the tooth pitch, i.e. the distance between two adjacent milling teeth in millimeters, and it substantially applies that the value of a ranges between a=1.7·10?9 and a=2.3·10?9, the value of b between b=?5·10?7 and b=?11·10?7, the value of c between c=0.7·10?4 and c=1.3·10?4, the value of d between d=8.5·10?3 and d=9.7·10?3, the value of e between e=2.6·10?1 and e=3.7·10?1 and the value of f between f=?1.5·10?1 and f=?2.6·10?1.
